Hello!

I would like to know if we can add pseudopotentials while using atomic basis sets?

Hi!

Yes, we do.
We should use ECP and valence basis set in proper combination as described in http://www.nwchem-sw.org/index.php/Release64:AvailableBasisSets#Gaussian_basis_sets_with_E...

It is worth noting that in some bases (LANL2DZ) ECPs have not been defined for light elements (H - Ne) and the all-electron basis used instead.
Also it makes sense in some cases to use pseudo-potential for hydrogen with 0 core electrons.

some docs about http://www.nwchem-sw.org/index.php/Release65:ECP

with respect Vladimir
