Example: NBO analysis: EFGΒΆ

# Example shows an NBO analysis of an EFG calculation for AlCl3 .

# In the ADF input one then needs to include the QTENS (EFG calculation) and
# include the subkey EFG of the key AORESPONSE. The BeckeGrid quality is good,
# which may be needed to accurately calculate core properties. Other keywords
# are necessary because of the NBO analysis afterwards. Note that ADF, ADFNBO,
# and GENNBO have to run several times.

# Note added: recommended is not to include the key 'TESTJOB' in the adfnbo input
# for larger calculations. The key TESTJOB will include the NRT key in FILE47.
# The calculation of NRT (natural resonance theory) can be very expensive
# for larger systems (or may fail to converge)
