Example: TD-CDFT for MoS2 Monolayer (NewResponse)

Download NewResp_2DMoS2Restart.run

#!/bin/sh

# This example demonstrates how to calculate the frequency-dependent dielectric
# function with the help of the NewResponse implementation for a two-dimensional
# system. (see NewResponse) Furthermore, the general setup to run the TD-CDFT
# section as a restart calculation is presented as well. This allows for
# splitting of the frequency range into several parts, which can then be
# calculated in separate calculation without the overhead of evaluating the
# groundstate properties for each of them! Hence, it is a trivial
# parallelization possibility.
