Default None

The solvent name. It can be one of the string given in the table above, or 7 real numbers, which are: dielectric_constant refraction_index Abraham_alpha Abraham_beta abomaticity halogenicity macro_surface_tension.

radius
Value UFF. Will use UFF atomic radii for tesselation.
Bondi. Will use UFF atomic radii for tesselation.
Default UFF

This determines the radius type used for tesselation. UFF is highly recommended, since Bondi radii data is not complete for some common elements, like Fe.

tss_method
Value Swig. Will use Swig algorithm for tesselation.
Switching. Will use Switching algorithm for tesselation.
Sphere. Will use sphere algorithm for tesselation.
Default Swig

The algorithm for tesselation. Swig is recommended. Sphere is useful in the study of electron transfer.

grid_accuracy
Value An integer

2702, 3074, 3470, 3890, 4334, 4802, 5294
Default 302

The number of Lebedev points generated for tesselation. Usually 302 is enough. For higher accuracy, 590can be used.
