#!/bin/sh # Application of the Ligand Field DFT approach for the calculation # of the X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism (XMCD) for lanthanide ion and complexes. # This example calculates the XMCD spectra of the Er3+ ion # for an Er 4f^11 (ground state) -> Er 3d^9 4f^12 transition, in which case a 3d core # electron is promoted to the 4f shell. # First an average of configuration calculation (AOC) is performed, where 11 # electrons are equally distributed over the 7 orbitals that have the most # dominant Er 4f character. Depending on the electron configuration this might # be a non-trivial task. # Symmetry NOSYM should be specified.
