10.1 Introduction

10.1.1 Overview

(September 23, 2025)

Q-Chem has incorporated a number of molecular properties and wave function analysis tools:

  • •

    Population analysis for ground and excited states

  • •

    Multipole moments for ground and excited states

  • •

    Extended excited-state analysis using reduced density matrices

  • •

    Calculation of molecular intracules

  • •

    Vibrational analysis (including isotopic substitution)

  • •

    Interface to the Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) package

  • •

    Molecular orbital symmetries

  • •

    Orbital localization

  • •

    Localized orbital bonding analysis

  • •

    Data generation for one- or two-dimensional plots

  • •

    Orbital visualization using the MolDen and MacMolPlt programs

  • •

    Natural transition orbitals for excited states

  • •

    NMR shielding tensors and chemical shifts

  • •

    Molecular junctions

In addition, Chapter 12 describes energy decomposition analysis using the fragment-based absolutely-localized molecular orbital approach.
