The OpenMolcas Web: A Community-Driven Approach to Advancing Computational Chemistry

Abstract: The developments of the open-source chemistry software environment since spring 2020 are described, with a focus on novel functionalities accessible in the stable branch of the package or via interfaces with other packages. These developments span a wide range of topics in computational chemistry and are presented in thematic sections: electronic structure theory, electronic spectroscopy simulations, analytic gradients and molecular structure optimizations, ab initio molecular dynamics, and other new features… Show more

“…Similarly, we evaluated oscillator strengths at S 1 equilibrium geometries, since that is the relevant point for the emission process. State-average-CASSCF (SA-CASSCF) and multi-state-CASPT2 (MS-CASPT2) calculations were carried out with the (Open)­Molcas software, including 5 singlet or triplet states and adopting the ANO-L-VDZP basis set. SA-CASSCF is a flavor of CASSCF aimed at obtaining compromise wavefunctions for all states included, avoiding root-flipping problems, while MS-CASPT2 is a multireference perturbative correction to energy also able to take into account the fact that the wavefunction is not dominated by a single Slater determinant, in analogy to the previously used NEVPT2, and to introduce the effect of dynamic correlation on top of multiple SA-CASSCF wavefunctions, especially well suited for regions of the potential energy surfaces or electronic states where CASPT2 might fail .…”

“…Coupled-cluster calculations were performed using the Molpro package . CASPT2 and MC-PDFT calculations were conducted with OpenMolcas. ,, NEVPT, CB-MRPT, SDS-, and MRCISD calculations were performed using the Beijing Density Functional (BDF) program package. The Forte plugin to Psi4 was used to perform DSRG-based calculations. The CEPT2 calculations were done with an in-house quantum chemistry program package (ORZ) …”

“…We note that we checked larger slabs up to a 9 × 9 × 9 expansion and still did not observe convergence (Figure S8). The electrostatic potential can be converged very quickly in reciprocal space using Ewald summation, but this method is not available in OpenMolcas . Luckily, there are two methods that can be employed to address this issue: the first uses an extra set of charges external to the crystalline slab as fitting parameters to replicate the exact infinite crystalline potential , and the second places an approximately spherical array of unit cells in a perfect conductor to screen the charges directly, thus approximating the infinite crystalline potential very closely.…”
