This example illustrate the use of the RI-B05 and RI-PSTS functionals. These are presently available only for single-point calculations, and convergence is greatly facilitated by obtaining converged SCF orbitals from, e.g., an LDA or HF calculation first. (LDA is used in the example below but HF can be substituted.) Use of the RI approximation (Section 6.6) requires specification of an auxiliary basis set.

Example 5.1  Q-Chem input of H2 using RI-B05.

$comment
   H2, example of SP RI-B05.  First do a well-converged LSD, G3LARGE is the
   basis of choice for good accuracy.
