, At least 40 excited states were calculated in each case, 604 and difference transition density plots were generated for each 605 transition. For each transition, difference density plots were generated 606 using the ORCA plot utility program and visualized with the 607 Chemcraft program. The same procedure was also employed to 608 generate and visualize spin-density plots as well as molecular orbitals, the Tamm?Dancoff approximation. 104,105, p.609
