So, even without any further coding, (non-resonant) Raman coefficients can be calculated using the present code by finite-difference differentiation of the dielectric constant with respect to nuclear displacements.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>SB</DIV><DIV><BR><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><DIV style="margin-top: 0px;
