Dear Giacomo,


not that I know, beyond OS-CDFT. In here http://theossrv1.epfl.ch/Main/OxidationStates there is a handwaving description on how to implement these things by hand, but you need a projection on the manifold of interest, and for that currently the only projections afaik are on the Hubbard orbitals (there is ongoing work by Iurii Timrov on projections on Wannier functions).

It's not too difficult, overall, but requires a few weeks/months of someone strong in el-structure simulations

Dear Users,
I'd like to apply  constrained DFT (CDFT) to compute electronic coupling parameter within the framework of Marcus theory to get electron transfer rate in polyethylene. In the work of Goldey et al (https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.jctc.7b00088 <https://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/acs.jctc.7b00088>), authors clearly affirm that CDFT has been implemented in QE. However, I really cannot find any reference to CDFT on QE website or elsewhere. As long as I know, the only CDFT module available is OS-CDFT, which is different and not really suitable to treat polymers.

Can anyone help me out with this?
Thank you so much in advance
Best

Giacomo
