# Use deep potential with ASE

Deep potential can be set up as a calculator with ASE to obtain potential energies and forces.

```python
from ase import Atoms
from deepmd.calculator import DP

water = Atoms(
    "H2O",
    positions=[(0.7601, 1.9270, 1), (1.9575, 1, 1), (1.0, 1.0, 1.0)],
    cell=[100, 100, 100],
    calculator=DP(model="frozen_model.pb"),
)
print(water.get_potential_energy())
print(water.get_forces())
```

Optimization is also available:

```python
from ase.optimize import BFGS

dyn = BFGS(water)
dyn.run(fmax=1e-6)
print(water.get_positions())
```
