All tutorials

This page contains the full list of available tutorials.

Basic tutorials

These tutorials cover the basics of Yambo: the SAVE folder, managing input files and so on.

• Database generation: the Yambo SAVE folder.

• Database initialization: initialize the SAVE folder.

• Input file generation: generate and modify input files using Yambo’s command-line interface.

Optical properties from DFT

These tutorials show how to calculate optical properties using DFT data within the random phase approximation (RPA).

• Optics at the independent particle level: optical spectra at the indipendent particle level.

• Local fields: include local field effects to calculate the macroscopic dielectric function.

GW tutorials

Tutorials about GW calculations to compute quasiparticles.

• HF on hBN: quasiparticle corrections within the Hartree-Fock approximation.

• GW on hBN: your first GW calculation with Yambo.

• GW on MoS2 HPC: run GW in parallel for larger calculations.

• Frequency dependence in GW: learn about the methods to treat frequency dependence in a GW calculation.

• RIM integrals: techniques to handle the integration of bare and screened Coulomb potentials.

BSE tutorials

• BSE on MoS2 HPC: run BSE using different solvers.
