Popis: The projector augmented wave (PAW) method is a powerful numerical algorithm that serves as a backend, enabling efficient density functional theory (DFT) calculations through the smoothing of valence electronic descriptions. Although it is mainly used in conjunction with plane-wave basis for solid-state systems, its generality permits the combination with other types of basis functions. In the previous study, we proposed a scheme to incorporate the PAW method into the conventional quantum chemical DFT implementation based on Gauss-type function (GTF) basis (Xiong et al.
