Dovesi The school is addressed to PhD students, Post-Docs and researchers with interests in solid state chemistry, physics, materials science, surface science, catalysis. It will provide an overview of the possibilities offered by ab initio quantum mechanical techniques when applied to characterize materials. The new capabilities of CRYSTAL06 ( http://www.crystal.unito.it ) will be illustrated: - vibration frequencies and IR intensities of solids at Gamma - full geometry optimization (atom coordinates and cell parameters).
