4 Electronic Structure and dynamical properties of complex structures Complex structures Nanoparticles Assemblies of nanoparticles Embedded nanoparticles Liquid/solid interfaces 4

5 Nanoparticles Multiplicity of locally stable structures requires extensive sampling Electronic structure requires accurate methods (beyond DFT) Finite temperature properties require first-principles molecular dynamics Cd 34 Se 34 5

6 Liquids and Liquid-Solid Interfaces Embedded nanoparticles, assemblies of nanoparticles Annealing of structures requires MD simulations Calculation of band gaps and band alignments requires accurate electronic structure (beyond DFT) Si/ZnS S. Wippermann, M. Vörös, A. Gali, F. Gygi, G. Zimanyi, G.Galli, Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, (2014).

7 Liquids and Liquid-Solid Interfaces H 2 O/Si(100)H Liquids require finite temperature simulations ab initio MD multiple samples/replica exchange simulations Electronic structure band alignment Spectroscopy requires calculation of IR and Raman spectra 7

8 Challenges Multiple length and time scales e.g. nanoparticle assembly process, non-equilibrium processes Finite temperature: MD/MC simulations ab initio MD for large systems (>1000 atoms) Need for accurate electronic structure hybrid DFT and/or GW/BSE level 8

9 Qbox code: DFT and hybrid DFT first-principles molecular dynamics massively parallel first-principles MD C++/MPI/OpenMP DFT and hybrid DFT MD GPL license All algorithms discussed here are available in the Qbox code 9

10 Computation meets Big Data: Why data compression is necessary Storage of restart files in simulations contain full information about wave functions size is O(N 2 ) for N atoms, reaches 100 GB-1 TB for large problems Acceleration of DFT and/or hybrid DFT calculations Reduce cost (e.g. from O(N 4 ) to O(N 3 )) Exploit locality of data on modern computer architectures 10

11 Desirable properties of compression schemes Accuracy control ideally a single parameter controlling the accuracy gradual reduction of the error to zero Efficiency tradeoff between space efficiency and cost of compression algorithm 11

12 Three compression approaches Reduced resolution Easy: in the Fourier basis: Reduce energy cutoff Efficient: requires only 1 FFT per orbital Problem: only moderate reduction is possible Compute Wannier functions Efficient (if using the right algorithm) Truncation procedure is ill-defined (no error control) Recursive Subspace Bisection (this work) Efficient (as fast as Wannier function calculation) Controllable error and systematic truncation scheme 12

13 Wannier functions Existence of exponentially localized Wannier functions Kohn (1959), des Cloiseaux (1964), Nenciu (1983), Helffer et al (1989), Brouder et al (2007), Panati (2007, 2013) Computation of Wannier functions: find an orthogonal transformation among orbitals that minimizes the spread σ 2 X = x x ( ) 2 Optimization problem (with local minima) Marzari, Vanderbilt (1997) Use conjugate gradients, etc. Approximate simultaneous diagonalization problem F.G, Fattebert, Schwegler (2003) F.G., J.L.Fattebert, E.Schwegler, Comput.. Phys. Comm. 155, 1 (2003) J.F.Cardoso and A. Souloumiac, SIAM J. Mat. Anal. Appl. 17, 161 (1996). 13

14 Spread Functionals Spread of an operator  (single orbital) σ 2 (  φ) = φ (  φ  φ ) 2 φ = φ Â2 φ φ  φ 2 Spread of a set of orbitals ({ }) ( ) ˆ σ φ = σ φi 2 2 Aˆ i A i 14

15 Spread Functionals The spread is not invariant under orthogonal transformations among orbitals ψ i = j x ij φ j X! n n orthogonal 2 σ Â ({ ψ }) 2 i σ Â ({ φ }) i There exists a matrix X that minimizes the spread 15

16 Spread Functionals Let A,B! n n a ij = i  j b ij = i Â2 j 2 σ  ({ ψ }) i = tr X T BX Minimize the spread = maximize = diagonalize A n i=1 ( ) ( X T AX ) 2 ii n i=1 ( X T AX ) 2 ii 16

18 Spread Functionals Example of multiple operators ( ϕ) ˆ (1) = ˆ ˆ (,, ) ϕ(,, ) A X X x y z x x y z ( ϕ) ˆ (2) = ˆ ˆ (,, ) ϕ(,, ) A Y Y x y z y x y z ( ϕ) ˆ (3) = ˆ ˆ (,, ) ϕ(,, ) A Z Z x y z z x y z The matrices A (k) do not necessarily commute, even if the operators  (k) do commute 18

19 Calculation of Wannier functions In periodic systems  (1) =  (3) = Ĉ y  (5) = Ĉx cos 2π L x ˆx  (2) = cos 2π L y ŷ  (4) = Ŝ y Ĉz cos 2π L z ẑ  (6) = Ŝx sin 2π L x sin 2π L y ˆx 2π Ŝz sin ẑ L z ŷ 19

20 Calculation of Wannier functions The spread is minimized by simultaneous diagonalization of the matrices C x,s x,c y,s y,c z,s z Positions of the center of mass of the localized solutions ( Wannier centers ) Spreads x θi Lx 2π y θi x τi = Ly θi arctan 2π = z θi Lz 2π 2 2 ( σ i ) = Lx 1 ( Cx) ( Sx) x ( 2 2 ) ii ii ( Sx ) ( C ) x ii ii F.G., J.L.Fattebert, E.Schwegler, Comput..

40 Hybrid density functionals Conventional density functionals are often insufficient to describe weak bonds (e.g. hydrogen bonds) or optical properties (band gap) Hybrid density functionals include a fraction of the Hartree-Fock exchange energy The Hartree-Fock exchange energy involves N(N-1)/2 exchange integrals (for all e - pairs) E x = 1 2 N i, j ϕ ( i r 1 )ϕ ( i r 2 )ϕ ( j r 1 )ϕ ( j r ) 2 dr 1 dr 2 r 1 r 2 Cost: O(N 3 log N) (with large prefactor) for plane waves For atom-centered basis sets: O(N) (Strain, Scuseria (1996), Burant, Scuseria, Frisch (1996), Schwegler, Challacombe, Head- Gordon (1997)) 40
