Phosphorescence Calculation with pbe functional

[wanghong]

Hi everyone,
I encounter problems while calculate Phosphorescence emission using PBE functional, the .dal and part of .mol and of .out files are attached below.
Could anyone help me fix it?
I'm using the 2018 version of Dalton, by the way.

That is the reason. I believe the following post is still the current list of functionals and the order to which they've been tested:

Sorry, sir. Because I just contacted Dalton, I read the post you said above, but I didn't quite understand it.What is 2 in "1 is LR, 2 is QR, 3 is cr."? How should I write in the input file?

You are trying to compute a quadratic response function and the program is telling you that the functional you used is either not fully implemented or not tested for quadratic response.

The list of functionals that i linked to shows which alternative functionals you can use instead. Here, 1 means that it can be used for linear response only, 2 means linear and quadratic response, and 3 means linear, quadratic, and cubic response.

That is to say, if I want to calculate the phosphorescence, I can't use the function PBE, right?

[magnus]

Yes, that is correct as far as the program tells you and as far as I know. I've asked some of the developers if anything has changed in this respect since the time of the post with the list that I linked to.

OK, I got it.Thank you very much.
