The FEFF Project at the University of Washington specializes in theoretical methods for spectroscopy. We offer a variety of condensed matter tools for modelling x-ray and electron spectroscopies and materials properties. These tools include the FEFF9 code, a popular and user-friendly program with a GUI that calculates XAS and EELS based on Green's functions theory. The OCEAN and AI2NBSE codes, on the other hand, are based on band structure methods and calculate optical and core loss spectra in the Bethe-Salpeter approach.

BSE Approach for Spectroscopy

The OCEAN and AI2NBSE codes calculate XAS using the Bethe-Salpeter approach to account for Many-Body effects. These codes build on the popular ABINIT band-structure GW platform and the NIST BSE solver.
