The ADF program for molecular modeling

The molecular ADF program can be applied to gas phase molecules, solvated molecules, and molecules in protein environments. It can treat all elements of the periodic table, and contains state-of-the-art relativistic methods (ZORA and spin-orbit coupling) to treat heavy nuclei. ADF is especially suited for transition metal compounds. It is efficient due to a combination of linear scaling and parallelization techniques, and contains many standard methods for studying potential energy surfaces, as well as a wide range of molecular properties.

Chemically relevant analysis methods are available (including bond energy decomposition, fragment orbitals, and charge decomposition). The QM/MM implementation enables the treatment of protein environments with many thousands of atoms. ADF includes the very latest meta-GGA and hybrid exchange-correlation functionals, as well as a full range of standard functionals (including B3LYP). PtComplex
A 100-atom Pt-complex can currently be handled easily on a modern PC
