摘要
This paper focuses on describing the computational chemistry software, NWChem, and its use in materials science research. The current functionalities and capabilities are outlined, as well as future features. Specific computational examples are given to show the flexibility and usefulness of NWChern to answering materials science problems. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
