Dear Jane:

You can also take a look at:

And follow the links:

Teaching

Hands-on sessions
Computing vibrational properties of materials

There you will find a complete tutorial to compute phonons with Siesta.
The example is made for bulk Si, but the extension for molecules
is straightforward (just compute the vibrational frequencies for the Gamma point).

Hope this helps,

            Javier



Dear Jane  Alam
The answer is yes, you can obtain vibrational frequencies for molecules. You need to use de Vibra package at the /Util directory on your installation. For a simple example, please go at the Day-4 of the Cecam school on 2007. http://www.icmab.es/siesta/documentation/tutorials/Lyon-2007/Exercises-Lyon07.zip
Good luck
Ricardo

    Hello all
    Let me know about How to calculate vibrational frequencies of
    molecule with Siesta program? can any body send me input and
    output files regarding to this problem?
