Doubts with Molecular Orbitals
« on: April 01, 2016, 01:18:25 PM »
Hello everyone!

I hope you to be fine.

I am running a geometry optimization using a particular small basis. In the future, I would like to run a geometry optimization using a bigger basis, taking as starting geometry the result obtained in geometry optimization mentioned above.

I have a question.

Can turbomole use the final orbital obtained with small basis as starting orbitals for geometry optimization using bigger basis?

Cheers 

Arnim

Hi!

yes, define can perform blowup to transform the MOs in the new basis.

Try something like this:
cpc xxx
run define, change the basis set, and type in "OCCUPATION NUMBER & MOLECULAR ORBITAL DEFINITION MENU"
use xxx/control

Cheers,

Arnim

Thanks for your answer.

I have one new question:

is cpc a command that i must type in my working directory?

Is xxx the name of MOs file?

Thank you so much
