Description

22.1 Added
  • Real time electronic dynamics for xTB Hamiltonian

  • Real time electronic dynamics for range separated DFTB

  • Support for MPI-parallel GPU accelerated calculations via ELPA/ELSI library

  • (Optionally) rescale externally applied fields and dipole moments when implicit solvents are used

  • Enable lattice constraints in new geometry optimization driver

  • Dynamic polarizability and response kernel at finite frequencies

  • API call for CM5 charges

  • Numerical Hessian calculation can be split over multiple runs

Changed
  • PLUMED simulations may deliver due to an incompatible change in version 2.8.0 of the external PLUMED library slightly different results as before. See also the change log of PLUMED 2.8.

  • Allow electric fields in periodic systems even when interactions cross the sawtooth in the field

  • Allow printing of dipole moments, even in cases where the absolute value is ill-defined (charged systems or periodic cases), but its derivative may be meaningful.

  • Use the DFTB+ xyz writer for the modes program, removing the XMakemol output option.

  • Re-enable q=0 (sawtooth) electric fields for periodic/helical structures

Fixed
  • incorrect atomic mass unit for xTB calculations

  • electronic temperature read for Green's function solver

  • MPI code for spin polarised metallic perturbation at q=0 for spin polarized molecules with processor groups
