7.3 Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TDDFT)

7.3.7 Various TDDFT-Based Examples

(February 4, 2022)

Example 7.11  This example shows two jobs which request variants of time-dependent density functional theory calculations. The first job, using the default value of RPA = FALSE, performs TDDFT in the Tamm-Dancoff approximation (TDA). The second job, with RPA = TRUE performs a both TDA and full TDDFT calculations.
