Lanl2dz pseudo-potential - which is the correct citation?

11 November 2014 1 6K Report

For a DFT calculation with Gaussian, I have used the lanl2dz basis on Sn and also the lanl2dz pseudo-potential on Sn, all as implemented in the programme.

My question is: which is the correct paper I need to cite for lanl2dz?

Thanks,

Anne
