Terachem

General information

TeraChem 1.45 is general purpose quantum chemistry software designed to run on NVIDIA GPU architectures under a 64-bit Linux operating system. Some of TeraChem features include:

  • Full support for both NVIDIA Tesla and Fermi GPUs
  • Restricted Hartree-Fock and Kohn-Sham single point energy and gradient calculations
  • Various DFT functionals (BLYP, B3LYP, PBE, etc) and DFT grids (800-80,000 grid points per atom)
  • Empirical dispersion corrections (DFT-D)
  • Geometry optimization and transition state search (including constraints)
  • Ab initio molecular dynamics (NVE and NVT ensembles)
  • Support of multiple-GPU systems
  • Up to 1000 times faster than conventional CPU-based codes
  • Designed for large molecules – reads/writes PDB files directly
  • Optimization including geometric constraints
  • Improved mixed-precision for increased accuracy
