Erratum: Separability between valence and conduction bands in transition metal clusters

Density Functional Theory (DFT) and direct ab initio molecular dynamics (MD) calculations were applied to the hydrogen molecule trapped in a water cluster composed of 12 water molecules (H₂O)₁₂. The static DFT calculation showed that the H₂ molecule is trapped in the center of mass of (H₂O)₁₂. The vibrational frequency of the H–H stretching mode of the H₂ molecule trapped in the water cluster was blueshifted from that in vacuo. On the other hand, the vibrational frequency of H₂ in water‐hydrogen 1:1 complex (H₂O–H₂) was redshifted. A direct ab initio MD calculation of H₂(H₂O)₁₂ at 50 K indicated that the H₂ molecule is rotated freely around the center of mass of the water cluster. The origin of the spectral shift of H₂ in water ice is discussed on the basis of the theoretical results. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem, 2005
