Dear Zhijan
Here is the Zinc ion parameters; sigma= 1.70 and epsion=0.67
Sorry, due to the copyrights, I couldn't send you the original paper.
I am working on Zinc ion, I found the implemented Zinc ion parameters in AMBER gives better results in MM simulation. But, you shouldn't care becuase you are running QM/MM in which Zinc ion will be involved in the QM part.
Sincerely;
M. Ibrahim

My Route Section is as follows: # opt=tight td=(singlets,nstates=6,root=3) rcam-b3lyp/aug-cc-pvdz maxdisk=40GB geom=connectivity density=current test Whenever I adjust the root keyword for the appropiate state, derived from a previous try to optimize this state, the order of the states changes again making it almost impossible to optimize the Lb state. Do you have any tricks or is this just luck? I have also tried optimizing the Lb with RI-CC2 first and using the geometry for the job in Gaussian with no success. Thanks in advance.

Serious scientific computations do need a lot of space. And Linux. If you plan to do some modeling, consider at least a entry-level dedicated graphic card if you do not have one already. nVidia GPUs have better Linux support.

I believe that sigma is different from R* used by amber. Here
is some discussion of ion param types, but it doesn't mention
the sigma convention:
