Dear Luca

There is a 'laser' module, gpaw.tddft.laser, with a CWField class for
which implements a time-dependent potential.  It would be
straightforward to implement other external potentials.

I cannot promise that this mechanism is properly implemented and in
working condition, so maybe someone else can confirm, or you can test
it and verify that it behaves as it should in a simple case.

Best regards
Ask
