    DFTB+

    BIOVIA Materials Studio DFTB+ is an improved implementation of the Density Functional-based Tight Binding (DFTB) quantum simulation method for the study of electronic properties of materials. DFTB+ offers unique capabilities to study and understand systems containing hundreds of atoms. Problems that took more time or compute power than most researchers have available, such as defects in semi- conductors, and interactions between organic and inorganic surfaces, are now practical to study using DFTB+.
