Hi
apparently, nobody ever asked for such a basis and nobody ever created
such a basis. The PP can also be used in PW codes, so they might have been
used.
If you are in need for such a basis you can generate one e.g. with the atom
code in CP2K.

Subject: [CP2K:21245] Au compatible basis set for q1 pseudopotential

Hi all,

I am new to CP2K and trying to do some calculation for gold cluster. I found a "GTH-PBE-q1" pseudopotential for gold (or GTH-PADE-q1) treating gold with only one valence electron. However, I could not find any compatible basis set for it. There are q11 and q19 basis sets but no q1.

Is this a normal situation for CP2K? If they created q1 pp, shouldn't there be at least one compatible basis set?

Best,
Jack
