The H6 cluster

In this section you will calculate the wavefunction and the energy level diagrams for the linear and cyclic H6 clusters.

Exercise 1: Start DLVisualize, run a CRYSTAL calculation for the linear case: H6_linear.inp

Exercise 2: Run a CRYSTAL properties calculation of the energy level diagram
for the H6 linear cluster, as explained in Exercise 2 for H4.

Exercise 3: Run a CRYSTAL properties calculation of the density of states
for the H6 linear cluster, as explained in Exercise 3 for H4.

Exercise 4: Run a CRYSTAL properties calculation of the energy level diagram + the density of states
for the H6 linear cluster, as explained in Exercise 4 for H4.

Exercise 5: Start DLVisualize, run a CRYSTAL calculation for the cyclic case: H6_cyclic.inp

Exercise 6: Run a CRYSTAL properties calculation of the energy level diagram
for the H6 cyclic cluster, as explained in Exercise 2 for H4.

Exercise 7: Run a CRYSTAL properties calculation of the density of states
for the H6 cyclic cluster, as explained in Exercise 3 for H4.

Exercise 8: Run a CRYSTAL properties calculation of the energy level diagram + the density of states
for the H6 cyclic cluster, as explained in Exercise 4 for H4.


Question:
  1. Compare the H6 cyclic cluster with benzene. What do they have in common?
