Example: POLTDDFT with hybrid functional: NH3¶

#!/bin/sh

# Calculation of damped complex polarizabilities of NH3 with POLTDDFT.
# A hybrid XC functionals is used.
# For hybrid functionals POLTDDFT wil use HDA (hybrid diagonal approximation).
# For speed reasons one should not use a too large value for CutOff.
# To further speed up HDA one can use the subkey HDA_fitted, as is 
# done in the second example.
# It is very important to use basis sets with specially made
# auxiliary fit sets available in $AMSHOME/atomicdata/ADF/POLTDDFT
