The Dalton quantum chemistry program system

Kestutis Aidas, +83 more
TL;DR: Dalton is a powerful general‐purpose program system for the study of molecular electronic structure at the Hartree–Fock, Kohn–Sham, multiconfigurational self‐consistent‐field, Møller–Plesset, configuration‐interaction, and coupled‐cluster levels of theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

ReSpect: Relativistic spectroscopy DFT program package.

TL;DR: ReSpect allows molecules with >100 atoms to be efficiently handled at the four-component level of theory on standard central processing unit-based commodity clusters, at computational costs that rarely exceed a factor of 10 when compared to the non-relativistic realm.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-perturbative calculation of molecular magnetic properties within current-density functional theory.

TL;DR: A novel implementation of Kohn-Sham density-functional theory utilizing London atomic orbitals as basis functions is presented, which is the first fully self-consistent implementation of the latter for molecules in very strong magnetic fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analytic cubic and quartic force fields using density-functional theory

TL;DR: Generalized second-order vibrational perturbation theory is used to calculate the fundamental frequencies of methane, ethane, benzene, and aniline, comparing B3LYP, BLYP, and Hartree-Fock results and suggesting that the inclusion of electron correlation is not essential for the reliable calculation of cubic and quartic force constants.
Journal ArticleDOI

The first and second static electronic hyperpolarizabilities of zigzag boron nitride nanotubes. An ab initio approach through the coupled perturbed Kohn-Sham scheme.

TL;DR: The coupled perturbed Kohn-Sham (CPKS) computational scheme for the evaluation of electric susceptibility tensors in periodic systems, recently implemented in the CRYSTAL code, has been extended to third-order and used to obtain static electronic hyperpolarizabilities of zigzag BN nanotubes for the first time.
