Theoretical study on lower electronic states of the FeSi molecule

The low lying electronic states of the FeSi molecule have been investigated by performing complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) and multireference single and double excitation configuration interaction (MRSDCI) calculations. Although the classification of the ground state was not established, the results of the MRSDCI calculations suggest that the ground state of FeSi is ³Δ, and the lowest excited state is ⁵Π whose transition energy is 0.36 eV including the Davidson-type Q correction. The R _e given by MRSDCI with Q correction is 2.23 Å for ³Δ and 2.19 Å for ⁵Π. The spectroscopic constants and dipole moments of the low lying ⁵Δ and ³Π states as well as the ³Δ and ⁵Π states are also evaluated. The bonding nature of FeSi in the ³Δ state is discussed in comparison with the FeC molecule.     

Electronic states and spectroscopic properties of MgH in absence and presence of spin–orbit coupling − a configuration interaction study

Electronic spectrum of astrophysically important molecule magnesium hydride (MgH) has been studied using configuration interaction methodology excluding and including spin–orbit coupling. Potential energy curves of several spin-independent (Λ?S) electronic states have been constructed and spectroscopic constants of low-lying bound Λ?S states within 8.2 eV of term energy are reported in the first stage of calculations. The X²Σ⁺ is identified as the ground state in the Λ?S level. In the subsequent stage, the spin–orbit interaction has been incorporated and its effects on the potential energy curves and spectroscopic features of different electronic states of the species have been investigated. The X²Σ⁺_1/2 is identified as the spin–orbit (Ω) ground state of the species. Transition moments of several dipole-allowed transitions are computed in both the stages and radiative lifetimes of the corresponding excited states are computed. Electric dipole moments (µ) for a number of low-lying bound Λ?S states as well as several low-lying Ω-states are also calculated in the present study.     

Effects on spectroscopic parameters of several low-lying electronic states of GeS by core-valence correlation and relativistic corrections

The potential energy curves (PECs) of six low-lying electronic states (X¹Σ⁺, a³Σ⁺, b³Π, A¹Π, 1³Σ⁻ and 1⁵Σ⁺) of GeS molecule have been investigated employing the full valence complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) method followed by the highly accurate valence internally contracted multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) approach with large correlation-consistent basis sets for internuclear separations from 0.08 to 2.00 nm. The effects on the spectroscopic parameters by the core-valence correlation, relativistic and nonadiabatic corrections have been discussed in detail. The core-valence correlation correction is carried out at the aug-cc-pCVTZ basis set. The nonadiabatic correction is performed at the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set. And the relativistic correction is made at the level of cc-pV5Z basis set. The way to consider the relativistic correction is to employ the second-order Douglas-Kroll Hamiltonian (DKH2) approximation. To obtain more reliable PECs, the Davidson modification is also included in the present study. To reduce the incomplete basis set error, the PECs of these electronic states are extrapolated to the complete basis set (CBS) limit. With these PECs, the spectroscopic parameters of these low-lying electronic states are determined. On the one hand, analyses demonstrate that the effects on the spectroscopic parameters by the core-valence correlation correction, relativistic correction and Davidson modification are very obvious, whereas the effect on the spectroscopic parameters by the nonadiabatic correction is very small. On the other hand, comparison with the RKR data shows that the two-point total-energy extrapolation could improve the quality of spectroscopic parameters. On the whole, as expected, the most accurate spectroscopic parameters of GeS molecule are determined by the MRCI+Q/CV+DK+Q5 calculations.

Ab initio configuration interaction study of the ground and low-lying excited states of ZnCd

The multi-reference configuration interaction (MRCI) electronic energy calculations have been carried out on the ground state (X1∑) as well as three low-lying excited states (3∑, 1∏, 3∏) of ZnCd dimer. Potential energy curves (PECs) are therefore generated and fitted to the analytical potential energy functions (APEFs) using the Murrel-Sorbie(MS) potential function. Based on the PECs, the vibrational levels of each state are determined by solving Schr(o)dinger equation of nuclear motion, and corresponding spectroscopic parameters are accurately calculated using the APEFs. The present values of spectroscopic parameters including equilibrium positions and dissociation energies areompared with other theoretical reports available at present.     

MRCI+Q study of the low-lying electronic states of CdF including spin-orbit coupling

Cd F molecule, which plays an important role in a great variety of research fields, has long been subject to numerous researchers. Due to the unstable nature and heavy atom Cd containing in the Cd F molecule, electronic states of the molecule have not been well studied. In this paper, high accurate ab initio calculations on the Cd F molecule have been performed at the multi-reference configuration interaction level including Davidson correction(MRCI + Q). Adiabatic potential energy curves(PECs) of the 14 low-lying Λ–S states correlating with the two lowest dissociation limits Cd(~1S_g) + F(~2P_u) and Cd(~3P_u) + F(~2P_u) have been constructed. For the bound Λ–S and ? states, the dominant electronic configurations and spectroscopic constants are obtained,and the calculated spectroscopic constants of bound states are consistent with previous experimental results. The dipole moments(DMs) of 2 Σ+ and 2Π are determined, and the spin–orbit(SO) matrix elements between each pair of X2Σ+, 22Σ+, 12Π, and 22Π are obtained. The results indicate that the sudden changes of DMs and SO matrix elements arise from the variation of the electronic configurations around the avoided crossing region. Moreover,the Franck–Condon factors(FCFs), the transition dipole moments(TDMs), and radiative lifetimes of low-lying states-the ground state X2Σ+are determined. Finally, the transitional properties of 22Π–X2Σ+and 22Σ+–X2Σ+are studied. Based on our computed spectroscopic information of Cd F, the feasibility and challenge for laser cooling of Cd F molecule are discussed.

Ab initio all-electron fully relativistic Dirac—Fock self-consistent field calculations for UCI6

Ab initio all-electron fully relativistic Dirac-Fock and non-relativistic Hartree-Fock self-consistent field (SCF) calculations are reported at four UCl bond distances, assuming octahedral UCl₆. The results are fitted to a polynomial, obtaining thereby the optimized values of the bond distance and the corresponding total electronic energy for the UCl₆. The nonrelativistic Hartree-Fock (HF) and Dirac-Fock (DF) SCF calculations predict UCl₆ to be bound, with a predicted dissociation (atomization) energy D _e of 11.88 eV and 17.89 eV, respectively. Relativistic effects lead to ~51% increment in the predicted atomization energy of UCl₆. The UCl bond lengths predicted for UCl₆ with the relativistic DF and non-relativistic HF wave-functions are 2.46 Å and 2.58 Å, respectively. Complete neglect in the SCF step of the two-electron [SS|SS] integrals involving the small components of the spinors (NOSS) in the DF SCF calculation for UCl₆ predicts a D _e of 18.25 eV and essentially the same bond length (2.48 Å) as that predicted with the full SCF procedure. Thus the small components contribute an antibinding relativistic effect of ~0.4 eV to the D _e of UCl₆ and have a negligible effect on the bond length. The calculations show that relativistic effects are significant for the bonding and the dissociation (atomization) energy of UCl₆, and that these may be treated accurately using Dirac's fully relativistic equation for an electron.     

Theoretical study of the TiC molecule: clarification of the ground state

The electronic structure of the TiC molecule was examined using three types of multi-reference single- and double-excitation configuration interaction (MRSDCI) calculations with highly extended basis sets. Multi-reference coupled pair approximation (MRCPA) was applied after the MRSDCI calculations that included core—valence and core—core correlation in addition to the valence correlation (v-c-c CI). From the results of the most accurate calculation with MRCPA (v-c-c CPA) it was concluded that a ¹Σ⁺ state is the ground state, despite previous calculations that suggested a ³Σ⁺ state with a ¹Σ⁺ state lying only slightly above it. The ¹Σ⁺ state is more highly correlated than the ³Σ⁺ state, and it was found that use of a size-consistent method is necessary to predict the relative stability accurately. The study evaluated the spectroscopic constants and considered the effect of the core (Ti 3p) correlation on these parameters. By taking the core correlation effect into account, the estimation of the dissociation energy (D _e) was improved dramatically; D _e obtained through v-c-c CPA was 4.457eV for the ¹Σ⁺ ground state, which agrees well with the experimental value (the latest being 4.35 ± 0.31 eV).     

In search of the dark state of 5-methyl-2-hydroxypyrimidine using a numerical DFT/MRCI gradient

In a recent publication, Lobsiger et al. [Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 12, 5032 (2010)] presented infrared and electronic absorption spectra of supersonic jet-cooled 5-methyl-2-hydroxypyrimidine (5M2HP), the enol form of deoxythymine. In addition, they reported on the fast nonradiative decay of the S₁ population to a dark state. In the present paper, we have investigated the mechanism and rate constants of this nonradiative decay by means of quantum chemical multi-configuration methods. To this end, minima of the lowest excited singlet and triplet states as well as the minimum-energy crossing point of singlet and triplet potential energy hypersurfaces (PEHs) have been determined employing a numerical DFT/MRCI gradient where DFT/MRCI stands for a combination of density functional theory (DFT) and a semi-empirical multi-reference configuration interaction (MRCI) approach. Rate constants have been calculated in the Condon approximation using a time-dependent approach based on harmonic oscillator functions and electronic spin–orbit coupling matrix elements evaluated at the DFT/MRCI level. It is shown that the first excited triplet state possesses ³(n?→?π*) character in the gas phase. Fast intersystem crossing is mediated by the low-lying ³(π?→?π*) state whose PEH crosses both, the S₁ ¹(n?→?π*) and T₁ ³(n?→?π*) PEHs.     

Effects on spectroscopic properties for several low-lying electronic states of CS molecule by core-valence correlation and relativistic corrections

The potential energy curves (PECs) of six low-lying electronic states (X¹Σ⁺, a³Π, a′³Σ⁺, d³Δ, e³Σ⁻ and A¹Π) of CS molecule have been investigated using the full valence complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) method followed by the highly accurate valence internally contracted multireference configuration interaction (MRCI) approach with large correlation-consistent basis sets. Effects on the PECs by the core-valence correlation and relativistic corrections have been taken into account. And the two corrections are performed at the level of cc-pV5Z basis set. The way to consider the relativistic corrections is to use the second-order Douglas-Kroll Hamiltonian approximation. Using the CCSD(T), MRCI and MRCI with the Davidson modification (MRCI + Q), the PECs of electronic states involved are extrapolated to the complete basis set (CBS) limit. With the PECs, the spectroscopic parameters (T_e, R_e, ω_e, ω_ex_e, ω_ey_e, α_e, β_e, γ_e and B_e) of the six low-lying electronic states are determined. These parameters are in excellent agreement with the experimental data. The complete vibrational states are computed for the six low-lying electronic states when the rotational quantum number J equals zero, and the inertial rotation constants of the first 23 vibrational states are reported, which agree favorably with the RKR data. Comparison with the measurements shows that the two-point total-energy extrapolation scheme can obviously improve the quality of spectroscopic parameters and molecular constants.     

A theoretical study of potential energy curves and spectroscopic constants of VC

Potential energy curves for the various low-lying electronic states of VC have been studied using complete active space multi-configuration self-consistent field (CASMCSCF) followed by first-order and multireference singles and doubles configuration interaction (FOCI, MRSDCI) calculations. The MRSDCI calculations included up to 6 million configurations. Two very low-lying electronic states are found as candidates for the ground state of VC, namely a high spin state ⁴Δ and a low-spin ²Δ state, which is favoured at higher levels. A number of low-lying excited electronic states of VC are predicted, which are yet to be observed. The low-lying electronic states of VC are found to be ionic as inferred from the dipole moments and the charge density calculations. Electron donation and the back-donation process are suggested to be operative in the V-C bond formation.

The effects on the PECs by the core-valence correlation and relativistic corrections are included. The way to consider the relativistic correction is to use the third-order Douglas-Kroll Hamiltonian approximation. The core-valence correlation correction is made with the aug-cc-pCV5Z basis set. And the relativistic correction is performed at the level of cc-pV5Z basis set. To obtain more reliable results, the PECs determined by the MRCI calculations are also corrected for size-extensivity errors by means of the Davidson modification (MRCI+Q). The PECs of all these electronic states are extrapolated to the complete basis set limit by the total-energy extrapolation scheme. Using the PECs, the spectroscopic parameters are determined and compared with those reported in the literature. With these PECs determined by the MRCI+Q/CV+DK+56 calculations, the vibrational levels and inertial rotation constants of the first 20 vibrational states are evaluated and compared with the RKR data for these electronic states when the rotational quantum number J equals zero. On the whole, as expected, the most accurate spectroscopic parameters and molecular constants of the Si₂ molecule are determined by the MRCI+Q/CV+DK+56 calculations. And the spectroscopic parameters of the 1³Σ_u⁺, 1³Π_g, 2³Σ_u⁺, 2³Π_g, 3³Π_g, 3³Σ_u⁺, 2³Π_u and 2³Σ_g⁻ electronic states obtained by the MRCI+Q/CV+DK+56 calculations should be good prediction for future laboratory experiment.
