Example: Analytic Frequencies: CH4¶

Download CH4_SecDeriv.run

In this example we perform a geometry optimization immediately followed by calculation of frequencies. This is done by specifying the Geometry and AnalyticalFreq input blocks in one file.

Note: when using this feature, one might improve the precision if one uses NUMERICALQUALITY GOOD. In order to save time this is not done in this example.
