Hi Najmeh,

If you want to use all electron basis sets like Gaussian, what you need to 
change are "BASIS_SET 
<https://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/SUBSYS/KIND.html#list_BASIS_SET>", 
"POTENTIAL 
<https://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/SUBSYS/KIND.html#list_POTENTIAL>", 
and "METHOD 
<https://manual.cp2k.org/trunk/CP2K_INPUT/FORCE_EVAL/DFT/QS.html#list_METHOD>". 
BASIS_SET using all electron basis sets, POTENTIAL using "ALL", and METHOD 
using "GAPW". I think most commonly used all electron basis sets are stored 
in "EMSL_BASIS_SETS". Of course, you can get other basis sets from 
"https://www.basissetexchange.org/" by choosing the format as CP2K. 

Some example input files can be found in the cp2k example folder, such as 
"cp2k/tests/QS/regtest-gapw".

Best,
Hongyang
