What Does TZ Stand For?

TZ stands for Triple Zeta Basis Set

TZ, or Triple Zeta Basis Set, refers to a computational chemistry method that utilizes three sets of basis functions to describe the electron wave functions of atoms in molecular systems. This level of basis set offers a more accurate representation of electron distributions compared to double zeta sets, enabling improved calculations of molecular properties and behaviors. The Triple Zeta Basis Set is commonly employed in quantum mechanical simulations and contributes to enhanced predictive accuracy in studies of chemical reactions and molecular interactions.
