Hello All

I am trying to do some DFT calculations with the BLYP functional, 
varying the amount of HF exchange using the Gaussian IOps.
According to the Gaussian 03 Users Reference, the the IOps 3/76, 3/77 
and 3/78 are used for this. To quote the relevant section fron the Users 
References:

However, the Users Reference does not say where the basis set or the 
rest of the keywords are specified, or whether the order and spcing are 
important (as they often are in Gaussian).

I tried to vary the amount of HF exchange, but my calculations kept 
crashing, so I tried the example given in the Users Manual for the B3LYP 
functional, using the following input:

> #BLYP/6-31G(d) IOp(3/76=1000002000) IOp=(3/77=0720008000) 
> IOp=(3/78=0810010000) Opt

But the calculation crashes with the error message:

> Will use up to 2 processors via shared memory.
> Default route: MaxDisk=230000000 SCF=Tight MP2=FullDirect
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
> #BLYP/6-31G(d) IOp(3/76=1000002000) IOp=(3/77=0720008000) IOp=(3/78=08

> File lengths (MBytes): RWF= 7 Int= 0 D2E= 0 Chk= 1 Scr= 1

I tried an alternative input, specifying the basis set after the IOps:

> #BLYP IOp(3/76=1000002000) IOp=(3/77=0720008000) 
> IOp=(3/78=0810010000)/6-31G(d) Opt

But I get the same error message as before.

Any help solving this problem would be much appreciated!

Heidi Rohwer

I don't know about AMD's mass shipping schedule, but I do know that there 
will always be better and faster chips "after the summer". Or winter or 
whatever time period of choice :-) I don't think it in general is worth 
waiting for the next family of CPU's. Instead, get what is available when 
you need it (if possible, of course). I don't know how much better the
price/performance ratio of dual cores would be, at least in the beginning, 
when counting in all the costs of motherboards etc.

Also, after the dual core chips ship, there will be a lag before proper 
drivers/kernel patches for Linux appear. It took a year after release 
before a general AMD64 system could be considered usable for production 
under Linux. OK, the jump to dual core might not be that big, but I would 
be quite surprised if it immediately worked optimally.

Have a nice day,
     Mikael J.

for cache-friendly applications that don't mind somewhat lower clocks.

it depends on how advantageous the change is.  for instance, if you are 
heat or footprint-constrained in your machineroom, AMD's dual-core might 
well be worth waiting for, since they are compact and noticably cooler 
than two single-core chips.

> price/performance ratio of dual cores would be, at least in the beginning, 
> when counting in all the costs of motherboards etc.

if you have cache-friendly code, dual-core is very effective.
other components are basically the same, therefore no price premium.

AFAIKT, AMD hasn't announced DC pricing yet:
http://www.amd.com/us-en/Weblets/0,,7832_8366_609,00.html
the premium for 8xx chips is noticably higher than twice the 
price of the same-clock single-core.  but of course you save 
with fewer motherboards, chassis, etc.

> Also, after the dual core chips ship, there will be a lag before proper 
> drivers/kernel patches for Linux appear. It took a year after release 

no, DC is such a minor architectural change that it's already supported.

Hi Im making a multinuclear NMR study both theorical and experimental with a mercury complex. So i start by the ligand, ive run the optimized structure at MP2 and DFT, MP2//6-31G** BLYP//6-31G**, and the shields were obtained using GIAO all of this in gaussian98. The results shows that the MP2 make good correlation with the experimental C13 shifts, but not with the N15 and O17. In the other hand the DFT have the inverse behavior.
The question is someone has information about this behavior. Is there any comparative study between MP2 and DFT using these nucleus. Thanks for all

Dear Heidi:

You need to leave a space between # and the B of B3LYP in your route
section.

Hopes this helps. Best regards,

                                    Daniel

Asunto: CCL:DFT functionals with varying amounts of HF exchange

Hello All

I am trying to do some DFT calculations with the BLYP functional, 
varying the amount of HF exchange using the Gaussian IOps.
According to the Gaussian 03 Users Reference, the the IOps 3/76, 3/77 
and 3/78 are used for this. To quote the relevant section fron the Users

References:

> *User-Defined Models.* /Gaussian 03 /can use any model of the general 
> form:

> P_2 E_X ^HF + P_1 (P_4 E_X ^Slater + P_3 N E_x ^non-local ) + P_6 E_C 
> ^local + P_5 N E_C ^non-local
>
> The only available local exchange method is Slater (*S*), which should

>

However, the Users Reference does not say where the basis set or the 
rest of the keywords are specified, or whether the order and spcing are 
important (as they often are in Gaussian).

I tried to vary the amount of HF exchange, but my calculations kept 
crashing, so I tried the example given in the Users Manual for the B3LYP

functional, using the following input:

> #BLYP/6-31G(d) IOp(3/76=1000002000) IOp=(3/77=0720008000) 
> IOp=(3/78=0810010000) Opt

But the calculation crashes with the error message:

> Will use up to 2 processors via shared memory.
> Default route: MaxDisk=230000000 SCF=Tight MP2=FullDirect
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
> #BLYP/6-31G(d) IOp(3/76=1000002000) IOp=(3/77=0720008000) IOp=(3/78=08
> 10010000) Opt
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
> QPERR --- AN AMBIGUOUS KEYWORD WAS DETECTED.
> OP(3/76=1000002000) IOP=(3/77=0720008000

> Last state="GCL"
> TCursr= 88 LCursr= 36
> Error termination via Lnk1e in /work/soft/g03/p6/g03/l1.exe at Tue May

> Job cpu time: 0 days 0 hours 0 minutes 0.2 seconds.
> File lengths (MBytes): RWF= 7 Int= 0 D2E= 0 Chk= 1 Scr= 1

I tried an alternative input, specifying the basis set after the IOps:

> #BLYP IOp(3/76=1000002000) IOp=(3/77=0720008000) 
> IOp=(3/78=0810010000)/6-31G(d) Opt

But I get the same error message as before.

Any help solving this problem would be much appreciated!

Regards
Heidi Rohwer

Dear Colleagues,

BindingDB (www.bindingdb.org) has been changed to let you download query results as SDfiles. These include both chemical structures and affinity data. 

There may still be a few bugs, so let us know of any problems you may encounter.  Suggestions are also welcome

Best regards,
Mike

Dear Colleague,
I am working on transition states corresponding to the C-C bond cleavage step on B3LYP level. I just located one which looks reasonable in terms of the enthalpy of formation, vibrational mode (only one imaginary frequency whose motion looks okay in GV), and reasonable geometry. However, IRC result is not good; both forward and reverse directions end up to the intermediate (no decomposition, but all recombination.)
Should I say this is not the 'right' TS?
What this kind of TS physically means?
Thanks for reading.

Hello Heidi,

It appears to me that the "equal signs" are not supposed to be in the IOp
keyword use.  A quick experiment here showed me that 

#BLYP/6-31G(d) IOp(3/76=1000002000) IOp(3/77=0720008000) IOp(3/78=0810010000)
Opt

or

#BLYP/6-31G(d) IOp(3/76=1000002000,3/77=0720008000,3/78=0810010000) Opt

should work for you.

Regards,

Peter Warburton

Hello Heidi,

Try this:
IOp(3/76=0800002000)

This will add 20% exact exchange.

IOp(3/76=0750002500)

This will add 25% exact exchange.
Etc.

Best regards, Gabor I. Csonka

Your inputs is wrong. You should avoid using "IOp=", which is not a
standard way to specify IOp. You did it right for 3/76, but wrong for 3/77
and 3/78.

The following input can solve your problem. 

********************************************************** 
#BLYP/6-31G(d) IOp(3/76=1000002000) IOp(3/77=0720008000) 
 IOp(3/78=0810010000) Opt
