About Density Functional Theory (DFT):

DFT is a powerful quantum mechanical modeling method used to investigate the electronic structure of many-body systems, primarily in physics and chemistry. It enables the study of the properties of matter at the atomic level, providing insights into the behavior of electrons in atoms, molecules, and solids. DFT is widely used in materials science, chemistry, and nanotechnology for the design and analysis of new materials and processes.
