Subject: S squared values with DFT


Hello,

I am running DFT calculations on 3-atom vanadium clusters.  There is 
thus one (or three) unpaired electron, i.e., the ground state should be
a doublet (or quartet ..).  This means that the S**2 (S squared) value
that I get should be 0.75.  However, I am getting values that vary from
0.77 to 10.1 (even though I have specified a doublet in the input file).
Should I be concerned about this or are S**2 values meaningless in DFT
calculations?  If these values are of significance, how can I force my
calculations to give me S**2=0.75?

Many thanks,
Kim Bolton

Dear CClers,

I have received a question from a colleague, and wondered if any of you 
know the answer(s).  It may be best if you reply directly to him 
(varga@fy.chalmers.se).

Many thanks,
Kim
 ------------------------------------------------------
Hi Kim,

All my future research exclusively deals with superheavy elements,
particularly transactinides (Z>103). I've been working in that field
partially but I considered only small molecules (M-tetrachlorides,
M-oxychlorides and -halides, M: E104,E105,E106,E107). Within my
four-component DFT code I could calculate binding energies and the geometries
of such species.  However, the accuracy is not sufficient enough (I'd say for
the binding energies 0.2-0.4 eV, but the geometries are quite good reproduced
compared to the experiment). Usually we can predict the trends of the
physico-chemical properties (enthalpies, volatilities,..) of these superheavy
elements correctly compared to their homologues in the periodic table by
analyzing the overlap integrals and a population analysis, which means that
the predictions are made indirectly. 

Now we want to extend the research: 

 1) stability of big complexes in solutions (hydrolysis,
    solution effects,...)
 2) smaller molecules in the gas-phase (e.g. [E108]O_4):
    polarizabilities, van-der-Waals coefficients, adsorption on
    surfaces
 3) reaction paths for chemical reactions of small molecules
 4) reaction rate coefficients

I guess there is no universal computer code which includes all these
points. I know that GAUSSIAN is very good for electronic and geometric
structures but I doubt that it can handle spin-orbit effects properly.
Furthermore, are there basis sets for heavy elements? How good is the
relativistic Pseudopotential? 

Thank you,
Sven

Dear CCL'ers,

I want to calculate the dipole moment for each excited stated calculated
using CI-Singles methodology in Gaussian 94 Package.

Does anybody knows which  keyword I need to specify to do this?

Thanks in advance,

John:

If you have Tsar or our new Tsar for Windows, along with VAMP (Tim Clark's
semiempirical MO package that comes with the 3D version of Tsar) then you
can perform calculations of UV/vis spectra using standard CI methods.
Because Tsar works using a spreadsheet format, you can set up and calculate
this and other properties for tens of thousands of compounds at once.  You
can also use the Neural Network capability within Tsar to create a model for
molecular absorptivity based on your UV spectra calculations, other
descriptors, and experimental data.

Tsar runs on SGI while Tsar for Windows runs on Intel and Intel-compatible
processors.  The complete Tsar for Windows package, including VAMP, is quite
reasonably priced.

For more information on these products, please contact me via email at
dsmith@oxmol.com or your local OMG sales representative.

Hi, CCLers,

I want to know where could I find the Merk Compound

Thanks for consideration.
