Welcome to the potfit wiki
potfit is a free implementation of the force-matching algorithm to generate effective potentials from ab-initio data.
It was originally developed by Peter Brommer and was maintained at the ITAP. It has recently found a new home here at sourceforge.
For further information about the history and funding see About potfit - the ITAP Force-Matching Code.
Features
- Fit empirical potentials with the force-matching algorithm
- Tabulated or analytic potentials are available
- Different interactions like pair potentials, EAM, ADP and electrostatics available
- Directly export the potentials to IMD, our high performance MD code
Download
potfit is available as open source software released under the GPL.
The latest version can be downloaded here.
