The ADF program uses Slater-Type Orbitals.
There are a number of basis sets that can be freely downloaded
from this site.
These basis sets are optimized for the use in the
zeroth-order regular approximated (ZORA) relativistic equation,
which is an excellent approximation to the fully relativistic Dirac equation, especially in the valence region, which is important in quantum chemical calculations.

Especially for the lighter elements more STO basis sets are available in the data bases of the ADF program. One of the main developments in this respect are the even tempered basis sets developed by Del Chong.
The Corr/TZ3P and Corr/QZ6P extended all-electron basis sets are especially developed for many-body perturbation theory calculations. They can be downloaded from http://www.scm.com/wp-content/uploads/Correlation-basis-sets.zip (copy and paste into a new tab).
