FC-Lab II program package outline
FC-Lab II is a computer package for Franck-Condon simulations, designed and maintained by
Christian Schriever, Martin Cockett and Igor Pugliesi. The emphasis of this program is a
highly versatile LabView interface that allows for easy evaluation of FC simulations by
on line visualisation of geometries and normal modes.
The heart of the program consists of a fast integral storage method that allows for efficient
calculation of Franck-Condon integrals based on the recursion relations developed by Doktorov
et al. The capabilities of FC-LabII Version 2009 are
- Calculation of FC-Integrals based on Doktorov’s recursion relations, which are exact in the harmonic approximation and include the Duschinsky effect.
- Inclusion of zero order axis switching
- Fractional storage of FC integrals
- Powerful LabView interface for easy evaluation of the simulations
- Can read normal mode analyses from GAMESS-US, Gaussian 98/03, Molpro and Turbomole
