This grant supported research into the development of computational methods to predict the properties of materials to high precision. The overarching purpose of such tools is to aid materials discovery by computation, without the need for costly materials synthesis or experimental measurements. A wide variety of computational tools were developed during this grant. Using these tools, we demonstrated that we could achieve the stated goal of computational modeling with predictive accuracy in several prototypical materials: a molecular crystal of benzene, a solid composed entirely of hydrogen, and a model solid intended to mimic the high temperature superconductors.
