The Electron Pair Localization Function is a function defined in the
|
||
three-dimensional space. It measures the degree of pairing of electrons in a
|
||
molecule, with an increasing value as the electron pairing increases. Therefore
|
||
chemical bonds, core domains and lone pairs can be visualized.
