Q-Chem 2.0: a high-performanceab initio electronic structure program package

2000

ABSTRACT: Q-Chem 2.0 is a new release of an electronic structure programpackage, capable of performing first principles calculations on the ground andexcited states of molecules using both density functional theory and wavefunction-based methods. A review of the technical features contained withinQ-Chem 2.0 is presented. This article contains brief descriptive discussions of thekey physical features of all new algorithms and theoretical models, together withsample calculations that illustrate their performance. c 2000 John Wiley S electronic structure; density functional theory;computer program; computational chemistry Introduction A reader glancing casually at this article mightsuspect on t…
