Quantum Espresso

This is the Quantum Espresso local installation recipe. Tested with Quantum Espresso 7.2

Note

This software can also be installed via spack (package name quantumespresso), see general instructions here.

1. Unzip

unzip qe-7.2

2. Load necessary modules:

    module load intel/oneapi-all

3. Edit the make.inc file

cd into the quantum espresso folder and edit the make.inc file as such:

# make.inc.  Generated from make.inc.in by configure.

# compilation rules

.SUFFIXES :
.SUFFIXES : .o .c .f90 .h .fh

# most fortran compilers can directly preprocess c-like directives: use
#   $(MPIF90) $(F90FLAGS) -c $<
# if explicit preprocessing by the C preprocessor is needed, use:
#   $(CPP) $(CPPFLAGS) $< -o $*.F90
#   $(MPIF90) $(F90FLAGS) -c $*.F90 -o $*.o
# remember the tabulator in the first column !!!

.f90.o:
    $(MPIF90) $(F90FLAGS) -c $<

.c.o:
    $(CC) $(CFLAGS)  -c $<

.h.fh:
    $(CPP) $(CPPFLAGS) $< -o $*.fh



# Top QE directory, useful for locating libraries,  linking QE with plugins
# The following syntax should always point to TOPDIR:
TOPDIR = $(dir $(abspath $(filter %make.inc,$(MAKEFILE_LIST))))

# DFLAGS  = precompilation options (possible arguments to -D and -U)
#           used by the C compiler and preprocessor
# To use libxc (v>=4.3.0), add -D__LIBXC to DFLAGS
# See include/defs.h.README for a list of options and their meaning
# With the exception of IBM xlf, FDFLAGS = $(DFLAGS)
# For IBM xlf, FDFLAGS is the same as DFLAGS with separating commas

# MANUAL_DFLAGS  = additional precompilation option(s), if desired
#                  BEWARE: it does not work for IBM xlf! Manually edit FDFLAGS

# for libxc add -I/path/to/libxc/include/
