What a clear and concise way to describe all of this. The logic just flows. Great job, Astrid, you would make a wonderful teacher if you ever decide to teach, in my humble opinion.
Would love to see more quantum chem seminar style lectures from Astrid. I've recommended this video to every grad student I know. Very concise and intuitive. I love it!
Thank you for the wonderful presentation Astrid! I'm just an undergrad beginner in DFT from Nepal and your presentation does give a ground idea about DFT to build upon. What a serendipity I found this video.
@@sarojsharma5974 hello! I am doing PhD in astronomy. So, I did not continue in the field of DFT or computational materials science. But its a great field and the video is a great resource.
@@aayushgautam4919 I have a query brother. About job opportunities after masters within industries in usa or australia. How hard or easy for freshers? I have no experience, just a degree of msc physics. I studied advanced solid state physics.
Thank you very much for sharing such a beautiful talk. Love when knowledge is shared like this, from people that are SO passionate about. I will begin myself a project on DFT calculations during my Master courses and I used this as a short intro on the topic. So useful!
Great video, I am from México and now starting work in my first article necessary to graduate, this is a very good introduction to study systems of low dimensionality.
Astrid, you are a wonderful lecturer - clear, concise, fun to listen to. You're what I aspire to be. This video was helpful as I was biting my nails wondering if I'll be able to follow my DFT class in the fall. Lol to your comment "solving the many-body Schrodinger equation becomes a bit of a hassle" ;)
This is a fantastic presentation - thanks so much! It was pitched at just the right level for my understanding and everything was explained really clearly. I agree with one of the other comments that you would be an excellent teacher or lecturer :)
Great job Astrid. BTW - "CAR" refers to "card", meaning Fortran cards that were once submitted in decks to computers to give them the instructions of the job you were running.
Great job, I couldn't think of bitter, you helped me to get into the subject, I will start from here to go to a more detailed study of the DFT and it's application, and do my first DFT research Thank you
Very clear, coherent, and in detail description of such a complicated topic. That's great. Thank you. Hope to make more videos even short, from the VASP software, in particular.
Really well organised ppt...I watched it's first part and I really learnt new things and I enjoyed the dft...it's really a beautiful kit to solve sch. Eq...
@Astrid Marthinsen CAR might stand for term "CARD"...i.e. note to define a specific information...like position information, potential information as inputs
WOO! That's very helpful one! I just in my first year in my DFT research. Need to know further! But this video was a nice begin for me! THX and happy new year!
2 questions: 1. Where do we incorporate Pauli's exclusion principle here? 2. @11:05 why do we have a factor of 2 before the summation sign at the bottom?
If you look at the equation there you can see that the wave function depends on the coordinates of all electrons, so its a 3N dimensional problem. So you need to know all the coordinates of all the N electrons. If you look at the electron density, it doesn't depend on the coordinates of all electrons. The vector r "shows one position in space" where you can define the concrete electron density at that position. So it's a (usually) 3 dimensional problem. You don't need to know all positions of all electrons anymore, because you're just looking at the electron density, which kind of means "how many electrons will be on average in that position". And you can actually measure the electron desity with STM, so at a certain position you have a certain electron density and it changes if you change the coordinates of the observed position. And point charge means that you have an electric charge that is considered to exist at a single point, and thus having neither area nor volume. So for instance the charge is not smeared over an area, but is just at a single point. Hope it was understandable and right and hope that it helped :)

isnt that what she is doing?
She makes this topic easy to understand. What a talented teacher!
Would love to see more quantum chem seminar style lectures from Astrid. I've recommended this video to every grad student I know. Very concise and intuitive. I love it!
I must say watching this seminar for the third time and enjoying every second of it
definitely the most intuitive video on DFT ever. great work

very very clear. 36:30 NSW : the maximum number of ionic steps
Watching with tears (almost)
What a beautiful explanation by Astrid, it was so bad and tedious on my last DFT course

Would you kindly let me know the Bibliography you mentioned here . Iam begginer .
@@aborgeshonorato it's just the book she mentioned at the end of the presentation.
Wonderful !!! Your the best. Theoretical Microscope coined perfectly
great presentation, thank you very much Astrid!
too much clear, I wish if you could make a serious of material simulation (ab-initio simulation) videos, it will help us a lot, its best video ever.
20:58 periodic functions can be expanded using a Fourier series
23:01 convergence testing
Fantastic. Useful and concise about DFT and VASP. I must admit, I was click baited by Astrid's and I enjoyed the video, she's lovely.
Very clear presentation. Thank you so much
Do you have VASP software ?
i love her and her pronunciation. I have watched the video 5 times.
Very clear and straight forward presentation,
you will indeed be a great teacher, thanks somuch
great lecture. Not boring at all 👏👏

The pictures in ppt are perfect!
Indeed!
Very nice explanation... Need more talks like that.
Thank you, this really helped me a lot.
Astrid, thank you for this crystal clear explaination. I very firstly understand DFT in a meaningful manner after your explaination :D
WOO! That's very helpful one! I just in my first year in my DFT research. Need to know further! But this video was a nice begin for me! THX and happy new year!
that was the best dft explanation everrrrr thank u very much
Thank you for such in-depth explanation :)
Great lecture Astrid.

Wonderful presentation. Excellent job.
very nice presentation,many concepts are clear .thank you very much
It is an excellent explanation. Thanks a lot.
Very clear presentation. Thank you.
Super clear presentation, it was really helpful. Thanks for this!!
WOW very nice lecture you can explain well such a difficult theorem . thank you so much sir.
Absolutely fantastic..... Thank you so much
Hi at 11:08 can you please explain why you got a 2 Infront of the summation sign in the redefined version of electron density equation? Thank you.
excellent presentation. best ever intro to dft.
great Astrid......
Thank you very much about this amazing lecture !
vary intersting and informative help me great
This is really wonderful... so eaisly u cover all about DFT.
May i got this ppt link...
are u a dft student
Great presentation!!
Amazing !! This video helped me a lot.
thank you for this excellent presentation
Very clear for beginners👍
Thank you for clear explanation!!!
The density is the integral of psi*psi over N-1 variables. Over there you put the normalisation
A apresentadora é muito divertida, animada apresentação. Legal.
This is fantastic representation
Thank You. Your talk is amazing
Nice presentation..Thank you
Best video ever ! Thank you !
Very nice presentation......
Concise, clear, and comprehensive!
Thank you! That was really informative.
Excellent job...
Please do a lecture series covering briefly every basic aspect of DFT with some demonstrations
2 questions: 1. Where do we incorporate Pauli's exclusion principle here?
2. @11:05 why do we have a factor of 2 before the summation sign at the bottom?
for the second question: I thought it's because of the spin. :)
which kind of also answered the first question too ^^ two seperate electrons can occupy the same wave function if they have different spin
awesome lecture thankyou so much...
Basic quantum theory can be used as DFT.
great lec and very clear really , thank you
Good explanation
Thank you for this useful nutshell.....
too much clear , i wish if you could make a serious of material simulation (abi-initio simulation) vedios , it will help us a lot
Very good!!!
what an amazing presentation !
Can anyone suggest links for informative DFT videos like this ?
This is an excellent lecture. Well done
Thank you so much ☺️
brilliant clear!
8:15 in the third sum, shouldn't it be j > i instead of j > 1?
i also got stuck at the same point..you are rgt i guess
I think so too.
wonderful,thank you so much!
is it possible to get presentation of this marvelous lecture? Thanks in anticipation
Amazing ....very simply explain ...like it👍
I cannot understand 11:10 why density turns from 3N to 3 dimension. What means "point charge"?
If you look at the equation there you can see that the wave function depends on the coordinates of all electrons, so its a 3N dimensional problem. So you need to know all the coordinates of all the N electrons. If you look at the electron density, it doesn't depend on the coordinates of all electrons. The vector r "shows one position in space" where you can define the concrete electron density at that position. So it's a (usually) 3 dimensional problem. You don't need to know all positions of all electrons anymore, because you're just looking at the electron density, which kind of means "how many electrons will be on average in that position". And you can actually measure the electron desity with STM, so at a certain position you have a certain electron density and it changes if you change the coordinates of the observed position.
And point charge means that you have an electric charge that is considered to exist at a single point, and thus having neither area nor volume. So for instance the charge is not smeared over an area, but is just at a single point.
Hope it was understandable and right and hope that it helped :)
