This computational hub is a repository of simulation codes useful for modelling and design of nanoscale electron devices. Many groups in universities and research centers have developed advanced simulation software, which could be of interest for the general nanotechnology community: the mission of the PHANTOMS hub is to become the virtual venue where many of these codes can be run by registered users, sharing insights and comparing results.

To make this initiative successful, contributions from researchers active in the field of modelling of nanoscale structures and devices are solicited. Authors who wish to contribute their codes need only to provide the executables (in the form of Linux binaries) and a LaTeX document (with encapsulated PostScript figures) containing a tutorial. In order to keep the hub user-friendly and valuable for its users, we ask that particular care be spent in the preparation of the tutorial document: sufficient detail should be included to enable an average user to successfully supply inputs and run the programs. A few template input files are also appreciated.
