Introduction

BerkeleyGW is a many-body perturbation theory code for excited states, using the GW method and the GW plus Bethe-Salpeter equation (GW-BSE) method to solve respectively for quasiparticle excitations and optical properties of materials. BerkeleyGW is suitable for 3D, 2D, 1D, and molecular systems; applicable to insulating, metallic, and semi-metallic systems; massively parallelized with MPI, OpenMP, SIMD; and recently ported to GPUs, reaching 86x speedup compared to the CPU implementation.

Programming language: C/Fortran
