Low-loss optical communication requires light sources at 1.5um wavelengths. Experiments showed without much theoretical guidance that InAs/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) may be tuned to such wavelengths by adjusting the In fraction in an InxGa1-xAs strain-reducing capping layer (SRCL). In this work systematic multimillion atom electronic structure calculations qualitatively and quantitatively explain for the first time available experimental data. The NEMO 3-D simulations treat strain in a 15 million atom system and electronic structure in a subset of ~9 million atoms using the experimentally given nominal geometries and without any further parameter adjustments the simulations match the nonlinear behavior of experimental data very closely. With the match to experimental data and the availability of internal model quantities significant insight can be gained through mapping to reduced order models and their relative importance. We can also demonstrate that starting from simple models has in the past led to the wrong conclusions. The critical new insight presented here is that the QD changes its shape. The quantitative simulation agreement with experiment without any material or geometry parameter adjustment in a general atomistic tool leads us to believe that the era of nano Technology Computer Aided Design (nano-TCAD) is approaching. NEMO 3-D will be released on nanoHUB.org where the community can duplicate and expand on the results presented here through interactive simulations.

In this work we investigate the potential of tetragonal L1$_0$ ordered FeNi as candidate phase for rare earth free permanent magnets taking into account anisotropy values from recently synthesized, partially ordered FeNi thin films. In particular, we
estimate the maximum energy product ($BH$)$_mathrm{max}$ of L1$_0$-FeNi nanostructures using micromagnetic simulations. The maximum energy product is limited due to the small coercive field of partially ordered L1$_0$-FeNi. Nano-structured magnets consisting of 128 equi-axed, platelet-like and columnar-shaped grains show a theoretical maximum energy product of 228 kJ/m$^3$, 208 kJ/m$^3$, 252 kJ/m$^3$, respectively.
A highly anticipated application for quantum computers is as a universal simulator of quantum many-body systems, as was conjectured by Richard Feynman in the 1980s. The last decade has witnessed the growing success of quantum computing for simulating
static properties of quantum systems, i.e., the ground state energy of small molecules. However, it remains a challenge to simulate quantum many-body dynamics on current-to-near-future noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers. Here, we demonstrate successful simulation of nontrivial quantum dynamics on IBMs Q16 Melbourne quantum processor and Rigettis Aspen quantum processor; namely, ultrafast control of emergent magnetism by THz radiation in an atomically-thin two-dimensional material. The full code and step-by-step tutorials for performing such simulations are included to lower the barrier to access for future research on these two quantum computers. As such, this work lays a foundation for the promising study of a wide variety of quantum dynamics on near-future quantum computers, including dynamic localization of Floquet states and topological protection of qubits in noisy environments.
StructOpt, an open-source structure optimization suite, applies genetic algorithm and particle swarm methods to obtain atomic structures that minimize an objective function. The objective function typically consists of the energy and the error betwee
n simulated and experimental data, which is typically applied to determine structures that minimize energy to the extent possible while also being fully consistent with available experimental data. We present example use cases including the structure of a metastable Pt nanoparticle determined from energetic and scanning transmission electron microscopy data, and the structure of an amorphous-nanocrystal composite determined from energetic and fluctuation electron microscopy data. StructOpt is modular in its construction and therefore is naturally extensible to include new materials simulation modules or new optimization methods, either written by the user or existing in other code packages. It uses the Message Passing Interfaces (MPI) dynamic process management functionality to allocate resources to computationally expensive codes on the fly, enabling StructOpt to take full advantage of the parallelization tools available in many scientific packages.
The capabilities of CP2K, a density-functional theory package and OMEN, a nano-device simulator, are combined to study transport phenomena from first-principles in unprecedentedly large nanostructures. Based on the Hamiltonian and overlap matrices ge
nerated by CP2K for a given system, OMEN solves the Schroedinger equation with open boundary conditions (OBCs) for all possible electron momenta and energies. To accelerate this core operation a robust algorithm called SplitSolve has been developed. It allows to simultaneously treat the OBCs on CPUs and the Schroedinger equation on GPUs, taking advantage of hybrid nodes. Our key achievements on the Cray-XK7 Titan are (i) a reduction in time-to-solution by more than one order of magnitude as compared to standard methods, enabling the simulation of structures with more than 50000 atoms, (ii) a parallel efficiency of 97% when scaling from 756 up to 18564 nodes, and (iii) a sustained performance of 15 DP-PFlop/s.
Computational study of molecules and materials from first principles is a cornerstone of physics, chemistry, and materials science, but limited by the cost of accurate and precise simulations. In settings involving many simulations, machine learning
can reduce these costs, often by orders of magnitude, by interpolating between reference simulations. This requires representations that describe any molecule or material and support interpolation. We comprehensively review and discuss current representations and relations between them, using a unified mathematical framework based on many-body functions, group averaging, and tensor products. For selected state-of-the-art representations, we compare energy predictions for organic molecules, binary alloys, and Al-Ga-In sesquioxides in numerical experiments controlled for data distribution, regression method, and hyper-parameter optimization.
