This is the public repository for UCSD's NANO266 - Quantum Mechanical Modeling of Materials and Nanostructures taught by Prof Shyue Ping Ong. The purpose of this repo is to serve as a persistent and evolving collection of course materials, including supplementary notes, lab homeworks, codes used, etc.

While this repo is completely open and anyone is welcome to use the materials contain therein, I would ask that you acknowledge any usage.

Many of the writeups (for labs, etc.) are done using multimarkdown. Github will pretty much render most of the documents properly. Where necessary, PDFs are also generated for you to download and view.

You can explore some of the supplementary notebooks using the excellent online ipython notebook viewer. To begin, go to this link which points to the root directory.

Some of the materials are inspired by and adapted from excellent MIT Course 3.320: Atomistic Computer Modeling of Materials taught by Professors Gerbrand Ceder and Nicola Marzari. Those materials are available on MIT Open Courseware.
