pyscf.geomopt.addons module

Helper functions for geometry optimizer

pyscf.geomopt.addons.as_pyscf_method(mol, scan_function)

Creat an wrapper for the given scan_function, to make it work as a pyscf gradients scanner. The wrapper can be passed to optimize().

Args:

scan_function : [mol] => (e_tot, grad)

Examples:: >>> mol = gto.M(atom=’H; H 1 1.2’, basis=’ccpvdz’) >>> scan_fn = scf.RHF(mol).nuc_grad_method().as_scanner() >>> m = as_pyscf_method(mol, scan_fn) >>> pyscf.geomopt.berny_solver.kernel(m)

pyscf.geomopt.addons.dump_mol_geometry(mol, new_coords, log=None)

Dump the molecular geometry (new_coords) and the displacement wrt old geometry.

Args:

new_coords (ndarray) : Cartesian coordinates in Angstrom

pyscf.geomopt.addons.symmetrize(mol, coords)

Symmetrize the structure of a molecule.
