Works out to a 2.5xspeed advantage in favor of EL– But need to be careful to maintain adiabatic separation of nuclei and electrons.– Both are reasonable and choice depends on tasteVisionHNOpsinEL expands dynamic range of frequencies to reduce SCF iterationsCH3CH3Energy Conversion“1” iteration vs. typical 10-15 iterations (apparently)But, good BOMD codes require 5 iter b/c geometry change in one time step is smallCH3hνPhPhDisadvantages– Need to ensure that the electronic coefficients are always “cold” and nuclei arealways “hot”zzPhChemical SynthesisCH3
