Example: Bond Energy analysis meta-GGA, (meta-)hybrids: Zn2, Cr2, CrH

#! /bin/sh

# This example illustrates the bond energy decomposition scheme using metaGGA or
# metahybrid or hybrid functionals in ADF.

# The first example is straightforward with closed shell atomic fragments: Zn_2.
# The second example has open shell atomic fragments: Cr_2, and the extra
# complication that spin symmetry breaking lowers the energy of the molecule,
# although the total S_z-value is zero. The third example has open shell atomic
# fragments, and the molecule is open shell: CrH.

# == Zn2 ==

# In the first example for Zn_2 the metahybrid TPSSh is used. In the bond energy
# analysis, the bond energy is split in a Pauli repulsion term, a steric
# interaction, and an orbital interaction.

# == Cr2 ==

# In the second example for Cr2 the metaGGA TPSS is used. You can use
# spin-unrestricted fragments in ADF. However, here simulated unrestricted
# fragments are used. A fair approximation to a computation with unrestricted
# fragments can be achieved with the key FRAGOCCUPATIONS. You tell ADF that you
# want to treat the fragments as if they were unrestricted; this causes the
# program to duplicate the one-electron orbitals of the fragment: one set for
# spin-alpha and one set for spin-beta. You can then specify occupation numbers
# for these spin-unrestricted fragments, and occupy spin-alpha orbitals
# differently from spin-beta orbitals. Especially for the Pauli-repulsion it is
# important that one chooses the spin-occupations on the different fragments
# such that they are 'prepared for bonding'.

# Of course, the unrestricted fragments that you use in this way, are not self-
# consistent: different numbers of spin-alpha and spin-beta electrons usually
# result in different spatial orbitals and different energy eigenvalues for
# spin-alpha and spin-beta when you go to self-consistency, while here you have
# spatially identical fragment orbitals. Nevertheless it is often a fair
# approximation which gives you a considerable extension of analysis
# possibilities.

# Spin-symmetry breaking is enforced by the use of the key ModifyStartPotential
# in combination with the key key UNRESTRICTED. In the ADF output one can find
# that there is spin-density on both of the atoms.
