+===== FRANCK-CONDON FACTORS (FCON) =====
+''FCON'',//options// [fcon]
+The ''FCON'' program allows for the calculation of Franck-Condon factors based on potential energy surfaces obtained from the ''SURF'' and ''XSURF'' programs and vibrational wavefunctions as provided by the ''VSCF'' or ''VCI'' programs. Duschinsky effects may or may not be included. These can either be applied to the vibrational wavefunction (of the vibrational ground state) or the potential by using the ''PESTRANS'' program. The latter possibility is the recommended one as it is significantly faster. The ''FCON'' program including Duschinsky rotations can only be used with analytical representations of the potential energy surfaces. A prescreening of the Franck-Condon factors without Duschinsky effects at the ''VSCF'' level is used to reduce the computational effort for correlated levels, e.g. ''VCI''. Note that, Franck-Condon factors at the uncorrelated ''VSCF'' level including Duschinsky effects are usually of fairly poor quality. As the calculation of Franck-Condon factors often involves very high quantum numbers for the vibrational states of the final electronic state, very high excitation levels must be enabled in the ''VCI'' calculations, i.e. see keyword ''LEVEX''. As a consequence, the ''SCALE'' parameter in ''SURF'' calculations needs to be modified in most applications. For details see:\\
+P. Meier, G. Rauhut, //Comparison of methods for calculating Franck-Condon factors beyond the harmonic approximation: how important are Duschinsky rotations?//, [[https://dx.doi.org/10.1080/00268976.2015.1074740|Mol. Phys.]] **113**, 3859 (2015).\\

+==== Options ====
+The following //options// are available:
+  * **''DUSCH''=//n//** This keyword controls the Duschinsky transformation. ''DUSCH=0'' entirely neglects the Duschinsky transformation - including the shift-vector. ''DUSCH=1'' switches the Duschinsky transformation on and the algorithm of Doktorov will be used. Note that this option is only limited to 3-atomic systems. ''DUSCH=3'' neglects the Duschinsky rotation, but includes the shift-vector. This is the default option as the Duschinsky rotation can be passed to the ''PESTRANS'' program, which is much more efficient.
+  * **''ECKART''=//n//** ''ECKART=1'' (default) determines the Eckart transformation matrix as described in the literature. ''ECKART=0'' approximates the Eckart transformation matrix by a unit matrix, which is meaningless unless for debugging purposes or for some very special tests.
+  * **''MAXSEL''=//n//** ''MAXSEL=n'' determines the maximum number of Franck-Condon factors to be selected. By default //n// is set to 100.
+  * **''SEL''=//n//** This option switches the selection of Franck-Condon factors based on VSCF calculation on (''SEL=1'') or off (''SEL=0'', default).
+  * **''THRDELTA''=//value//** The $\delta$-criterion is a threshold, which allows for the prescreening of overlap integrals within the evaluation of the Franck-Condon factors prior to their evaluation. The default is set to 1.0d-8.
+  * **''THRFCF''=//value//** The sum of all Franck-Condon factors is 1.0d0 by definition. However, this value is hard to reach by sum over states approaches. Therefore, it can be lowered by this keyword.
+  * **''THRFCFSPEC''=//value//** This threshold controls, if a Franck-Condon factor will be considered within the plotting of the spectrum. See the ''PUT'' command and the ''IRSPEC'' style. The default is 1.0d-6.
+  * **''THRPRINT''=//value//** This keyword defines the smallest value of a Franck-Condon factor to be printed in the output. The default is set to 1.0d-99, i.e. this threshold usually is inactive.
+  * **''THRSEL''=//value//** This threshold controls, if a Franck-Condon factor shall be selected and thus be considered in all subsequent calculations or not. The default is 1.0d-5.
+  * **''THRSKIPBAS''=//value//** Basis functions in the outer regions of the potentials may be skipped within the calculation of Franck-Condon factors. In particular within the approach of Doktorov, the CPU time depends strongly on the number of basis functions. This keyword allows to skip such basis functions and is given as the overlap integral of the modal. The default is 0.999999d0.
+  * **''THRSUMSEL''=//value//** This threshold controls the sum of the selected Franck-Condon factors, which must formally be 1.0d0. The default is set to 0.999999d0.
+  * **''THRVCIMIN''=//value//** Within the calculation of Franck-Condon factors based on VCI wavefunctions, the leading VCI coefficient should be largest in order to correspond to the state of interest. The default is set to 0.01d0, which of course means that this keyword essentially is inactive.
+  * **''WF''=//type//** Defines the type of the wavefunction. ''WF=VSCF'' specifies state-specific ''VSCF'' wavefunctions for both levels, while ''WF=VCI'' denotes state-specific ''VCI'' wavefunctions. Alternatively, one may use ''WF=VSCFG'' for ground-state based VSCF wavefunctions and ''WF=VCIG'' for ground-state based VCI wavefunctions. The default is ''WF=VCI''.
+Some of the keywords as described for the ''VCI'' program are also valid for the ''FCON'' program, i.e. ''%%CITYPE, LEVEX, CIMAX, DIPOLE, NDIM, NBAS, NGRID, BASIS%%'' and ''INFO''.
+==== Information Handling ====
+''DISK'',//options//\\
+As the Franck-Condon program requests the information of two sets of potentials and wave functions, the information handling is controlled by an extra directive. All the records provided here must refer to the defaults or the explicitly given records in the preceding ''POLY'', ''VSCF'' and ''VCI'' calculations.
+  * **''FINAL''=//n//** Rather than specifying the records explicitly, the number of the final state as defined in ''DISK'' directive of the ''POLY'' program may be used.
+  * **''INITIAL''=//n//** Rather than specifying the records explicitly, the number of the initial state as defined in ''DISK'' directive of the ''POLY'' program may be used.
+  * **''SURF1''=//record//** Specifies the record from where to read the potential information for the final PES.
+  * **''SURF2''=//record//** Specifies the record from where to read the potential information for the initial PES.
+  * **''VSCF1''=//record//** Specifies the record from where to read the VSCF information for the final wave function.
+  * **''VSCF2''=//record//** Specifies the record from where to read the VSCF information for the initial wave function.
+  * **''VCI1''=//record//** Specifies the record from where to read the VCI information for the final wave function.
+  * **''VCI2''=//record//** Specifies the record from where to read the VCI information for the initial wave function.
+==== Example 1 ====
+The following example shows the input for a calculation of Franck-Condon factors at the VCI level. The selection of important Franck-Condon factors will be done at the VSCF level without Duschinsky rotation.

+===== ELECTRONIC-VIBRATIONAL SPECTRA (EVSPEC) =====
+''EVSPEC'',//options// [evspec]
+Similar to the ''FCON'', the ''EVSPEC'' program allows for the calculation of anharmonic electronic-vibrational absorption spectra with the inclusion of Duschinsky effects. In addion, it can take finite-temperature effects into account as arising from the thermal population of the excited vibrational levels of the electronic ground PES. The program requires a precalculated set of initial VCI wavefuncions, a polynomial representation of the final PES, and the corresponding VSCF ground-state modals. In addition, the initial VCI states should be provided in the same set of normal coordinates as the final PES, which is achieved by the coordinate transformation of the potential energy function via the ''PESTRANS'' program. All these aspect will be illustrated in the examples below.
+There are basically two approaches employed in this module. The first one consists in the determination of the eigenstates with the largest Franck-Condon factors within the formalism of contracted invariant Krylov subspaces (CIKS) by means of the Lanczos or RACE methods. Alternatively, the specta can be evaluated using the time-independent eigenstate-free ansatz based on the inhomogeneous Schrödinger equation. The solution of this equation, the so-called Raman wavefunction (RWF), is directly related to the spectral intensities. For details see:\\

Rauhut, //A general approach for calculating strongly anharmonic vibronic spectra with a high density of states: the $\tilde{\mbox{X}}\,{}^2$B${}_1 \longleftarrow \tilde{\mbox{X}}\,{}^1$A${}_1$ photoelectron spectrum of difluoromethane//, [[https://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acs.jctc.7b00468|J.

+==== Options ====
+The following //options// are available:
+  * **''METHOD=CIKS|RWF''** Defines the method of calculation. ''METHOD=CIKS'' specifies the CIKS approach which enables the determination of the eigenstates with the most significant Franck-Condon factors. ''METHOD=RWF'' denotes the eigenstate-free method based on the Raman wavefunction formalism.\\
+Default: ''METHOD=RWF''.
+  * **''INITIAL''=//n1//, ''FINAL''=//n2//**   \\
+These keywords provide the reference values for the initial and final PESs, respectively. In this case, the option ''AUTO''=//n1// within the ''DISK'' directive of the ''POLY'', ''VSCF'', or ''VCI'' blocks would attribute the respective computational results to the //initial// PES, while ''AUTO''=//n2// would attribute them to the //final// PES.\\
+Default: ''INITIAL=1'', ''FINAL=2''.
+The keyword ''INFO'' has the same meaning as in the other programs.
+==== Handling of Initial States ====
+''ISTATES'',//options//\\
+For a given temperature, the program can calculate the spectrum with the contributions from all initial states which are found in the VCI record. This directive provides the opportunity to control the prescreening of the initial states based on their relative thermal populations. The following options are possible:
+  * **''TEMPK''=//value// ** Provides the temperature in Kelvin.\\
+Default: ''TEMPK=300.0''.

+This directive provides various computational settings which are specific to the RWF calculations. Currently, only the iterative subspace algoritm of Lanczos type is impemented. The following options are possible:
+  * **''ERANGE''=//value1,value2// ** Defines the spectral range in 1/cm unit for the RWF calculation relative to the 0-0 trasnition energy. In the case that the eV unit is implied, see the explanation for the keyword ''EUNIT''.\\
+Default: automatic determination of the spectral range with significant intensity.
+  * **''EUNIT=CM|EV''** Defines the energy unit for the values specified via the keywords ''ERANGE'' and ''GAMMA''. ''CM'' and ''EV'' stand for 1/cm and eV, respectively.\\
+Default: ''EUNIT=CM''.
+  * **''GAMMA''=//value// ** Defines the damping factor in 1/cm unit. In the case that the eV unit is implied, see the explanation for the keyword ''EUNIT''.\\
+Default: ''GAMMA=100.0''.

+Default: ''NLMAX=2000''.
+  * **''NSMAX''=//n// ** Defines the maximum number of printed approximate eigenstates representing the RWF.\\
+Default: ''NSMAX=2000''.
+  * **''THRCONV''=//value// ** Defines the convergence threshold for the RWF in terms of the dimensionless squared residual norm for the inhomogeneous Schrödinger equation.\\
+Default: ''THRCONV=1.0d-3''.
+  * **''THRFCF''=//value// ** This is the threshold for the sum of the FCFs which controls the number of printed approximate eigenstates representing the RWF.\\
+Default: ''THRFCF=0.999''.
+==== CIKS calculations ====
+''CIKS'',//options//\\
+This directive provides the computational settings that are specific to the CIKS calculations. The following options are possible:
+  * **''METHOD=LCS|RACE''** Defines the method of calculation. Currently, two choices are possible: Lanczos (''LCS'') and RACE (''RACE'') algorithms.\\
+Default: ''METHOD=RACE''.
+  * **''NDMAX''=//n// ** Defines the maximum number of the state-specific expansion vectors. It is valid only for ''METHOD=RACE''.\\
+Default: ''NDMAX=1000''.
+  * **''NEVMAX''=//n// ** Defines the maximum number of the eigenvectors to be calculated in one batch (''NEVMAX''$\leq$''NSMAX'').\\
+Default: ''NEVMAX=20'' for the RACE method, and ''NEVMAX=NLMAX'' for the Lanczos one.
+  * **''NLMAX''=//n// ** Defines the maximum number of Lanczos iterations.\\
+Default: ''NLMAX=2000'' for the Lanczos method, and ''NLMAX=300'' for the RACE one.
+  * **''NSMAX''=//n// ** Defines the maximum number of the eigenstates to be calculated. The same number of states will be printed out.\\
+Default: ''NSMAX=100'' for the RACE method, and ''NSMAX=NLMAX'' for the Lanczos one.
+  * **''THREN''=//value// ** Defines the convergence threshold for the calculated eigenstates in terms of the residual norm in Hartree unit.\\
+Default: ''THREN=1.0d-7''.
+  * **''THRFCF''=//value// ** This is the threshold for the sum of the FCFs which additionally controls the total number of the calculated and printed eigenstates.\\
+Default: ''THRFCF=0.999''.
+==== Vibrational configuration basis ====
+''VCIBASIS'',//options//\\
+This directive controls the choice of the vibrational configuration basis. The following options are possible:
+  * **''REFTYPE''=//n// ** Controls the selection of the reference configuration involved in the generation of the VCI basis. ''REFTYPE=1'' refers to the ground vibrational configuration. The other choices are based on the calculated modal-contracted Franck-Condon factors (MCFCFs). For ''REFTYPE=2'', the modals with the largest MCFCF is selected for the respective components of the reference vector, while for ''REFTYPE=3'', one takes the modal which approximately corresponds to the average of the MCFCF distribution over the modals.\\
+Default: ''REFTYPE=3''.
+The keywords ''CITYPE'', ''LEVEX'', and ''CIMAX'' restrict the VCI basis to certain excitation patterns, and have the same meaning as in the other modules:
+  * **''CIMAX''=//n// ** Defines the maximum total excitation level over all modes.\\
+Default: ''CIMAX=6''.
+  * **''CITYPE''=//n// ** Defines the maximum number of simultaneously excited modes relative to the reference configuration.\\
+Default: ''CITYPE=4''.
+  * **''LEVEX''=//n// ** Defines the maximum excitation level within a single mode.\\
+Default: ''LEVEX=4''.
+==== Vibrational interaction matrix ====
+''HMAT'',//options//\\
+This directive controls the construction of the VCI Hamiltonian matrix. The following options are possible:
+  * **''THRSPARSE''=//value// ** Defines the threshold for neglecting the off-diagonal elements in the Hamiltonian matrix stored in a packed sparse form. The smaller is this value the higher are the memory demands, and the computational cost of the matrix-vector multiplications. In particular, setting ''THRSPARSE=0.0'' would not lead to any meaningful changes in the calculated transition energies and intensities, but can easily increase the memory demands by $\sim 10-10000$ times as compared to the default value.\\
+Default: ''THRSPARSE=1.0d-6''.
+==== Interface to Gnuplot ====
+''GRAPH'',//options//\\
+This directive controls the output of the calculated spectra for plotting with the ''GNUPLOT'' program. Thus far, a single option is available:
+  * **''EVSDUMP''=//file name// ** Provides the name of the gnuplot input file.\\
+Default: ''%%EVSDUMP=’InputFileName.evs.gnu’%%''.
