License

Academic license

To obtain the source code of the deMon2k program is necessary to sign a license agreement. License agreements must be signed by people responsible for their own research groups. For further information please contact Dr. Patrizia Calaminici (emails: pcalamin at cinvestav.mx and calaminicipatrizia at gmail.com). The academic license is free of charge.

Binary versions

Binary versions of deMon2k can be downloaded for evaluation and testing of the program. They are compiled for a specific target platform (CPU, operating system) and have no restrictions concerning the functionality of the program. However, the size of the systems you can calculate with the binary versions is restricted to the following limits:

• 100 atoms
• 2000 basis functions
• 2000 auxiliary functions
• Maximum angular momentum for basis functions: 4
• Maximum angular momentum for auxiliary functions: 6
• Maximum angular momentum for ECPS: 5
• Maximum angular momentum for MCPS: 3

To ensure the usability of the binary versions on as many platforms as possible no extensive optimization flags were used for the compilation. Also, the executables are in general not linked with optimized mathematical libraries. Therefore, the performence of a binary version is considerable less than what can be achieved by compiling and tuning the program for a given platform.

You do not need to sign a license agreement to obtain a binary version of deMon2k. Please, click on the button below to download a binary version.

Some examples with input and output files can be downloaded seperately.

Basis set files

The deMon2k program is shipped with database files (BASIS, AUXIS, ECPS, MCPS) containing basis sets. auxiliary function sets, effective core potentials and model core potentials, respectively. The latest versions of these database files can be downloaded from the following list.
