MaX is organizing a series of webinars presenting the most recent developments of the MaX flagship codes.

This time the webinar is dedicated to Yambo code 

YAMBO is an open-source code released within the GPL licence. It is suitable to calculate and predict the physical properties of materials related to light-matter interaction. It makes use of ab-initio methods, meaning that the calculated properties do not rely on any adjustable parameters but they are obtained by solving the fundamental equation of quantum mechanics. In particular YAMBO implements Many-Body Perturbation Theory (MBPT) methods (such as GW and BSE) and Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT), which allows for accurate prediction of fundamental properties as band gaps of semiconductors, band alignments, defect quasi-particle energies, optics and out-of-equilibrium properties of materials, including nano-structured systems. The code resorts to previously computed electronic structure, usually at the Density Functional Theory (DFT) level and for this reason it is interfaced with two of the most used planewave DFT codes used in scientific community, Quantum ESPRESSO and Abinit.
