Hi
I am actually following this thread. But I noticed something which is I think a bug. Actually, I do TDDFT/TDA excitation calculation with ORCA. Then by using the multiwfn I print the transition dipole moment(TDM) between triplet excited states into a file. Due to spin-forbidden symmetry, the TDM between the excited states and the ground state is expected to be zero. But there are non-zero values in the output of the multiwfn. Below I paste the file and input. Am I missing something? Thanks for your help in advance.

Multiwfn only calculates spatial part of the integral between the two states, therefore the integral is not always zero even if their spins are different. This consideration enables user to study contribution to the transition moment due to spatial part.

]]>Thanks. I was using the version 3.6. Version 3.7 (dev) is working now (though I have not checked it completely at least it didn't halt).
Kind regards

]]>Please make sure that you are using the latest version of Multiwfn on the Multiwfn official website. Multiwfn updates very frequently. I remembered that several month ago I have fixed the problem in reading ORCA 4.2 output file.
Best regards,
Tian
]]>Many thanks.
I exactly copied the input you pasted and run it and obtained the ORCA output without error. Then I followed the instructions from here http://www.shanxitv.org/wfnbbs/viewtopic.php?id=72 . Unfortunately, it still doesn't recognize the ORCA output and halts unexpectedly. It says it is a Gaussian output. ORCA version is Program Version 4.2.1 - RELEASE -
Kind regards
Halil
]]>Probably the keywords you used are not reasonably. For example, the input file should look like
!b3lyp def2-SVP nopop
%tddft
nroots=5
triplets true
tprint 1E-8

Many thanks for your response. I have actually tried to do so by following your post here http://www.shanxitv.org/wfnbbs/viewtopic.php?id=72 .
I tried with Windows version of multiwfn and orca 4.2. It doesn't recognize the orca output and halts the program unexpectedly.
But maybe I should modify the code a little bit.
Kind regards
Halil
]]>In principle this is possible, and it is not difficult if you know how to write program/script. AFAIK, ORCA is unable to directly do this, and there is also no existing code in Multiwfn that can do this.
To realize this purpose, you need below two information
(1) Mixing coefficients of singlet and triplet excited states in the SOC excited states. This can be obtained by SOC-TDDFT task of ORCA.
(2) Transition dipole moment between singlet excited states and that between triplet excited states. This can be obtained by subfunction 5 of main function 18 of Multiwfn, see Section 3.21.5 of Multiwfn manual for on how to obtain them.
Then by simply combining them together, the transition dipole moment between SOC excited states can be obtained. The code used to do this should not exceed 100 lines.
Best regards,
Tian
]]>I would like to calculate the rates between SOC excited states (i.e. mixed singlets and triplets states after including spin-orbit coupling effect) which require transition dipole moments (TDM) between these SOC excited states. I believe if one has the TDMs between singlet states and triplet states, he/she can calculate the TDMs between SOC excited states. Is there anyone with some clue of how to do that with ORCA and Multiwfn?
Many thanks and kind regards
Halil
