Availability of MOLOPT basis sets

[S Ling]

Hi

I have attached two basis sets (TZVP + TZV2P) for Ca which I have produced 
for you. These basis sets share with same Gaussian exponents with the 
currently available basis set DZVP, but they contain more contraction 
coefficients (optimised in molecular calculations) and therefore should be 
systematically better in quality. You may do a series of calculations from 
DZVP to TZVP and to TZV2P, and check whether your target properties are 
converged. Keep in mind that the same quality of basis sets should be used 
for other elements in your system, i.e. when you use TZVP for Ca, you 
should also use TZVP for Si/O/H.
