Maximally Localized Wannier Functions
In this exercise we will explore alternative ways to divide the electronic densities into orbitals. By requiring that orbitals should be as localized as possible one obtains a representation, which closely resembles the typical text-book pictures of molecular orbitals.
You should run these calculations on 4 nodes with
bsub -n 4.
1. Task: Caffeine Molecule
Calculate the electronic ground state of the Caffeine molecule by running the provided input file. The simulation will output:
- the molecular orbitals (MOs) as separate cube-files
- the Wannier functions as separate cube-files
- the centers of all Wannier functions combined in a single xyz-file
2. Task: Water Box
Repeat the previous calculation on a box of 64 water molecules. You can use the following SUBSYS-section. Since the water simulation uses periodic boundary condition, don't forget to turn off the Poisson solver.
&SUBSYS
&CELL
ABC 12.4544808085 12.4544808085 12.4544808085
&END CELL
&COORD
@INCLUDE '64water.coord'

&END SUBSYS
Questions
- Visualize some of the MO and Wannier functions with vmd. What is the key difference between these two kinds of orbitals?
- Visualize the Wannier centers in vmd. How can you distinguish between lone pairs, single-, and double-bonds?
Howto visualize cube files with VMD was covered in a previous exercise.
Initially VMD does not know about the dimensions of the simulations cell. To setup, e.g. a 15Å qubic box, just type the following into vmd's Tk-console:
vmd> pbc set {15.0 15.0 15.0}
vmd> pbc wrap
