Hi everyone,
I want to calculate the energy gap between HOMO and LUMO by Dmol3. But I find there are no energy value in outfile of Dmol3 for a periodic model. However, for a molecule, there are two lines contain the infromation of the HOMO or LUMO " Energy of Highest occupied Molecular Orbital -0.14014 Ha -3.81eV
Energy of Lowest unoccupied Molecular Orbital -0.07840Ha -2.133eV "
While for a periodic model, only "Fermi Energy -0.17164 Ha -4.671eV -kTS_e = -0.02183Ha" could be found in the outfile.
Can anyone tell how to find the energy value of HOMO and LUMO for a periodic model? What does -kTS_e stands for ?
Best regards
