<div dir="ltr">Hi all, <div><br></div><div>I calculate frequency for small molecules and try to compare with Gaussian 09 and experimental results. I show the results from <b>CP2K </b>(PBE functional-BASIS_MOPLOT, GTH potental, nonperiodic) and <b> Gaussian09 </b>(M062X/6-311g(d,p)) . </div><div><br></div><div>I have several questions:</div><div><br></div><div>1. You will see the total number of modes obtained from CP2K is 15, however 12 modes from Gaussian. Are the first three modes are translation modes or rotation modes for C2H4?</div><div><div>2. If we only compare the 12 vibration modes, the value for most of modes from Gaussian is larger than CP2K. What's the reason for getting smaller frequencies from CP2K? </div><div>3. What is the keyword can strongly affect the frequencies? Affect the accuracy of frequencies? </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks very much! </div><div><br></div><div><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="128" style="border-collapse:
