[docs]class ScineTsOptimization(OptimizationJob): """ A job searching the nearest saddlepoint on the potential energy surface. Optimizing a given structure's geometry, generating a new transition state structure, if successful. **Order Name** ``scine_ts_optimization`` **Optional Settings** Optional settings are read from the ``settings`` field, which is part of any ``Calculation`` stored in a SCINE Database. Possible settings for this job are: All settings recognized by ReaDuct's transition state search Common examples are: optimizer :: str The name of the optimizer to be used, e.g. 'bofill' or 'evf' or 'dimer'. convergence_max_iterations :: int The maximum number of geometry optimization cycles. convergence_delta_value :: float The convergence criterion for the electronic energy difference between two steps. convergence_gradient_max_coefficient :: float The convergence criterion for the maximum absolute gradient. contribution. convergence_step_rms :: float The convergence criterion for root mean square of the geometric gradient. convergence_step_max_coefficient :: float The convergence criterion for the maximum absolute coefficient in the last step taken in the geometry optimization. convergence_gradient_rms :: float The convergence criterion for root mean square of the last step taken in the geometry optimization. For a complete list see the `ReaDuct manual <https://scine.ethz.ch/static/download/readuct_manual.pdf>`_ All settings that are recognized by the SCF program chosen. Common examples are: max_scf_iterations :: int The number of allowed SCF cycles until convergence. **Required Packages** - SCINE: Database (present by default) - SCINE: Readuct (present by default) - SCINE: Utils (present by default) - A program implementing the SCINE Calculator interface, e.g. Sparrow **Generated Data** If successful the following data will be generated and added to the database: Structures A new transition state structure. Properties The ``electronic_energy`` associated with the new structure.
