<div>Dear <span>Raphaël,</span></div><div><span><br /></span></div><div><span>as default, the SOC-Matrix is written in eV. The matrix is not completely block-triangular, but would not be far away from it.</span></div><div><span><br /></span></div><div><span>The file contains the couplings between the different states, which were calculated. The first state is the ground state (numbered as 1), followed by the singlet states S (</span><span>numbered as</span><span> 2 to nstates+1) and the triplet states T-1 (</span><span>numbered as</span><span> nstates+2 to 2 x nstates +1), T0 (</span><span>numbered as</span><span> 2 x nstates+2 to 3 x nstates +1) and T+1 (</span><span>numbered as</span><span> 3 x nstates +2 to </span><span>4 x nstates +1</span><span>). Since a restricted closed shell reference is used, the same wave functions are used for T-1, T0 and T+1. </span></div><div><span>The coupling states are represented by the first two columns, which should be integers. Then the complex coupling element is shown, the first number is the real part, while the second number represents the imaginary part. At the real part of the diagonal are the excitation energies.<br /></span></div><div><span><br /></span></div><div><span>Best regards,</span></div><div><span>Jan-Robert Vogt<br /></span></div><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="auto" class="gmail_attr">Raphaël Rullan schrieb am Mittwoch, 3.
