SCM’s expert Erik van Lenthe demonstrates how to calculate X-ray absorption spectra with ADF. Erik walks you through the simulation of core excitations with ADF, including spin-orbit coupling, TDDFT and the fast transition potential method....
In this video tip of the week, Ole demonstrates how to calculate core Ionization Potentials as probed in X-ray photoemission spectroscopy. The video is based on the new step-by-step tutorial Core Ionization Potentials (XPS) of...
In a recent study published in the journal Nature, Dr. Prashant Kumar, in the group of Prof. Kotov at the University of Michigan (USA), reports on bowtie nanostructured microparticles with a chemical structure displaying chirality...
In this video tip of the week, Ole combines two workflows from the PLAMS manual for a quick example of automatic substituent screening with successive filtering by TD-DFT excitation energies.
In this video tip of the week, Ole demonstrates how the mode refinement in AMS can save you a lot of compute time when calculating vibrational spectra.
The GW-Bethe-Salpeter Equation (BSE) (GW-BSE for short) is a state-of-the-art approach to calculate low-lying vertical excited states of molecular systems. Compared to Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT), it offers major improvements in the description of charge-transfer...
Recently, a new algorithm, polTDDFT, to solve the TDDFT equations for large systems has been proposed and implemented in ADF [1]. PolTDDFT is a valid alternative to the Casida – Davidson approach when a very...
Following the spring series of AMS2022 webinars (see also the AMS2022 webinar playlist), we are organizing a new series of webinars this fall. We will again have experts on a range of different topics presenting...
In this 15th video tip of the week, Ole compares experimental and simulated NMR spectra with AMSspectra. The video is based on the ADF tutorial H-NMR with spin-spin coupling.
We hope you will find the new computational chemistry course by Amanda Morgenstern from UCCS useful for your own classes. The assignments are available as pdf from the links below. Answer keys can be requested from Amanda....
