The computation of Hartree-Fock polarizabilities are currently available for restricted HF. A description of how to perform generic HF calculations are given in the Hartree-Fock calculation
tutorial. In addition to the sections that are needed for a ground state HF calculation, the tdhf response
keyword must be specified in the do
section:
do
tdhf excited state
end do
Furthermore, you must add the solver tdhf response section and specify the frequencies for which you want to compute the polarizabilities, for instance:
solver tdhf es
frequencies: {0.0d0, 0.072d0, -0.072d0}
end solver tdhf es
A minimal working example is:
system
name: methanol
charge: 0
end system
do
tdhf response
end do
memory
available: 8
end memory
method
hf
end method
solver tdhf response
frequencies: {0.0d0, 0.072d0, -0.072d0}
end solver tdhf response

If successful, you should find the polarizabilities for the desired frequencies at the end of the output file:
