Abstract

A systematic investigation of a hierarchy of methods for including relativistic effects in the calculation of linear and nonlinear optical properties was carried out. The simple ECP method and the more involved spin-averaged Douglas-Kroll approximation were compared to benchmark results obtained with the time-dependent Dirac-Hartree-Fock method. It was found that in many cases, the performance of the ECP method exceeds its rank.
