Hello Maciek,
thanks for the reply. However, this does not solve the problem. My first
thought also was that the cube size or the resolution was too small, but
I played around with the cube size and also with the resolution (the
number of data points in the cube) without getting the correct norm of
the density or the molecular orbitals. As I said, when looking on an
iso-surface, my calculated orbitals also look too compact while their
shape seems to be OK (as far as this can be seen by visual inspection).
After quite carefully checking of my little program I had hoped that
there is something about the norm of the orbitals in molden files that I
did not consider yet. If this is not the case, I will have to continue
debugging in more detail.
Thanks anyway
Markus
