[CP2K-user] [CP2K:13619] Some questions about using RT-TDDFT method in cp2k code to calculate spectrum

[xio...@gmail.com]

Dear  Mario,
     
Thank you very much for your help. In fact, I have just started using cp2k 
software. I have a question before you reply to me, that is why there is no 
*dat file in my output files. But now I understand that I need to add the 
'FILENAME output' keyword in the 'MOMENTS' subsection.

Still, I have one question to ask you: What does the value of 'STEPS' in 
the 'MD' section of rt-TDDFT specifically mean? The interpretation of the 
official website is ambiguous. To calculate the spectra of different 
systems, do you have any suggestions for setting the STPES and TIMESTEP 
keywords?

Best wishes,

Lin
