Overall process
NAMD-LMI is divided into three parts: nac
, hamil
and surfhop
, corresponding
to the calculation of non-adiabatic coupling, Hamiltonian and surface hopping.
- Run VASP like traditional Hefei-NAMD;
- Run
namd_lmi nac -c config
to calculate non-adiabatic coupling. A visualization scriptnac_plot.py
is also available vianamd_lmi nac --generate pp
. - Run
namd_lmi hamil -c config
to generate Hamiltonian plus external field. The external field is described in a rhai script, which can be generated vianamd_lmi hamil --generate efield
. A visualization scripthamil_plot.py
is also available vianamd_lmi hamil --generate pp
. - Run
namd_lmi surfhop -c config
to run surface hopping and get the real time evolution of the population. A visualization scriptsurfhop_plot.py
is also available vianamd_lmi surfhop --generate pp
.
