The Gaussian page has more detailed info on that: http://www.gaussian.com/g_tech/g_ur/k_freq.htm Regards, Rene Sitt On 03/18/2015 10:04 AM, Sergio Manzetti sergio.manzetti|,|outlook.com wrote: > Sent to CCL by: "Sergio Manzetti" [sergio.manzetti#outlook.com] > Dear all, I am not sure where in the following G09 command the second order derivatives are issued (not actually looking to use them at all): > > !QCISD(FULL,Conver=16,MaxCyc=1400)/genECP > %mem=9686MB > %chk=R.chk > %nprocshared=4 > #P QCISD(FULL,Conver=16,MaxCyc=1400)/genECP > # Opt MaxDisk=50GB > # Freq(VCD,Raman,Numerical) pop=NBOREAD > # Gfinput IOP(6/7=3) Pop=full Density Test > # Units(Ang,Deg) > > Which part of this command line issues the second order derivatives? > > Thanks> >
