## Introduction

ALAMODE is a scientific software designed for analyzing lattice anharmonicity
and lattice thermal conductivity of solids. By using an external DFT package
such as VASP and Quantum ESPRESSO, you can extract harmonic and anharmonic
force constants straightforwardly with ALAMODE. Using the calculated anharmonic
force constants, you can also estimate lattice thermal conductivity, phonon
linewidth, and other anharmonic phonon properties from first principles.
This is a software for calculating harmonic and anharmonic interatomic force constants in solids and molecules.

## Features


### General
* Extraction of harmonic and anharmonic force constants based on the supercell approach
* Applicable to any crystal structures and low-dimensional systems
* Accurate treatment of translational and rotational invariance

## Download

You can clone the repository as

```
$ git clone http://github.com/ttadano/ALM.git
```
## Install
The directories alm/, anphon/, and tools/ contain separate Makefiles.
Please modify the Makefiles appropriately by changing variables such as
CXX, CXXFLAGS, or MPICXX. Then, execute "make" will create the binary for
each program.
