Example: Resonance VROA: H2O2

Download VROA_RESO.run

#! /bin/sh

# Example shows a calculation of resonance vibrational Raman optical activity
# (resonance VROA).

# In the ADF input one then needs to include the subkey FREQUENCIES of the key
# GEOMETRY (numerical frequencies) and include the subkeys VROA and LIFETIME of
# the key AORESPONSE. A laser frequency need to be added. The other keys in
# AORESPONSE are recommended by the author of the implementation of VROA in ADF.
# For accuracy reasons 'NumericalQuality Good' and EXACTDENSITY are used. Note
# that the subkey FitAOderiv is only used in case of pair fitting (STOFIT), in
# which case it will improve the fit quality. The default fit method is ZlmFit,
# which will not use this key. In case of ZlmFit one should set the
# numericalquality or ZlmFit quality to a high level, for example Good or
# VeryGood.

# Note that used basis set is too small to get accurate results. Better is the
# use larger basis sets, like one of the even tempered basis sets (for example
# Type ET/ET-QZ3P-1DIFFUSE), or use augmented basis sets (for example Type
