Noctua 1 and Noctua 2
The following is an example SLURM jobscript using the DFTB+ module (see the table above) to run a molecular dynamics simulation of SiH surface. The DFTB+ input file for SiH surface can be found here. The Slater-Koster files can be downloaded from here. Please feel free to adapt the example SLURM jobscript for your own DFTB+ computation.

# This compute job launches 4 MPI tasks on one compute node.
# Each task uses 4 CPU cores for 4 OpenMP threads (one thread per core).
# Please feel free to adapt the options for your own DFTB+ computation.
