Creates ORCA input files for predicting vibronic spectra
-
Put the folder containing all your molecule files in the
SpecPredictGen
folder (optional) -
Edit SpecPredictGen.conf, fill
[paths]
in like so:
moleculeName = MoleculeName # Molecule Name, required
moleculeFolder = .\MoleculeName # Where to output .inp files, when left blank, defaults to the value of moleculeName in the `SpecPredictGen` folder
coordsFile = .\MoleculeName\MoleculeName.xyz # where your xyz file is located, when left blank, defaults to {moleculeName}.xyz in your molecule folder
hessFileName = MoleculeName_gs.hess # Name of .hess file to target, defaults to {moleculeName}_gs.hess
-
Edit all other fields as needed.
-
Run
SpecPredictGen.py
, the generated files will be created in themoleculeFolder
After generating your .spectrum files, will create a .csv out of the data
- Fill out
[paths]
like so:
moleculeName = MoleculeName #Put the name of the file before the _sX, for example, for Caffeine_s1.spectrum, put "Caffeine"
moleculeFolder = .\MoleculeName # Insert the Path to the folder with the .spectrum files in it.
-
Edit
[vars]
as needed -
Run
SpecToSheet.py
, the generated file will be output as MoleculeName.csv in themoleculeFolder
