>>Yes you said right..HOMO orbital is 19th. But I am getting 0.68eV using 6-31G. Could you please help me?

>>>>>>>Please see the following code I am using to run for a single TiO2 molecule. I have used SBKJC and also 6-31G to get almost similar results for HOMO-LUMO gap. I am getting around 0.7 eV. However as far as literature goes, I should have got ~ 3 eV. As it a sngle TiO2 molecule, gap should have opened.
