• Keyword descriptions

  MAX_DR
  	MAX_DR {Real}
  	Convergence criterion for the maximum geometry change between the current and the last optimizer iteration.
  	This keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one real.
  	Default value: 3.00000000E-003
  	Default unit: [bohr]

  MAX_FORCE
  	MAX_FORCE {Real}
  	Convergence criterion for the maximum force component of the current configuration.
  	This keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one real.
  	Default value: 4.50000000E-004
  	Default unit: [bohr^-1*hartree]

  MAX_ITER
  	MAX_ITER {Integer}
  	Specifies the maximum number of geometry optimization steps. One step might imply several force evaluations for the CG and LBFGS optimizers.
  	This keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one integer.
  	Default value: 200

  OPTIMIZER
  	OPTIMIZER {Keyword}
  	Specify which method to use to perform a geometry optimization.
  	This keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one keyword.
  	Default value: BFGS
  	List of valid keywords: BFGS Most efficient minimizer, but only for 'small' systems, as it relies on diagonalization of a full Hessian matrix CG conjugate gradients, robust minimizer (depending on the line search) also OK for large systems LBFGS Limited-memory variant of BFGS suitable for large systems. Not as well fine-tuned but can be more robust.
  	Alias names for this keyword: MINIMIZER
  	This keyword cites the following reference: [BYRD1995]

  RMS_DR
  	RMS_DR {Real}
  	Convergence criterion for the root mean square (RMS) geometry change between the current and the last optimizer iteration.
  	This keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one real.
  	Default value: 1.50000000E-003
  	Default unit: [bohr]

  RMS_FORCE
  	RMS_FORCE {Real}
  	Convergence criterion for the root mean square (RMS) force of the current configuration.
  	This keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one real.
  	Default value: 3.00000000E-004
  	Default unit: [bohr^-1*hartree]

  STEP_START_VAL
  	STEP_START_VAL {Integer}
  	The starting step value for the ROT_OPT module.
  	This keyword cannot be repeated and it expects precisely one integer.
  	Default value: 0
