We develop a software package SPADExp (simulator of photoemission angular distribution for experiments) to calculate the photoemission angular distribution (PAD), which is the momentum dependence of spectrum intensity in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). The software can directly load the output of the first-principles software package OpenMX, so users do not need to construct tight-binding models as previous studies did for PAD calculations. As a result, we can calculate the PADs of large systems such as quasicrystals and slab systems. We calculate the PADs of sublattice systems (graphene and graphite) to reproduce characteristic intensity distributions, which ARPES has experimentally observed. After that, we investigate twisted bilayer graphene, a quasicrystal showing 12-fold rotational symmetric spectra in ARPES, and the surface states of the topological insulator Bi₂Se₃. Our calculations show good agreement with previous ARPES measurements, showing the correctness of our calculation software and further potential to investigate the photoemission spectra of novel quantum materials.
