A proper account of core-polarization with pseudopotentials: single valence-electron alkali compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, a polarization potential is incorporated into semi-empirical and Hartree-Fock adjusted pseudopotentials, and very accurate results are obtained for the dimer and hydride ions of alkali elements up to K.

Ground‐state properties of alkali dimers and their cations (including the elements Li, Na, and K) from ab initio calculations with effective core polarization potentials

TL;DR: In this article, all-electron SCF and valence CI calculations are performed for alkali dimer systems with consideration of intershell correlation effects by use of an effective core polarization potential (CPP), which contains only a single adjustable atomic parameter.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inclusion of core‐valence correlation effects in pseudopotential calculations. I. Alkali atoms and diatoms

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple procedure is developed to include the core-valence polarization and correlation effects in small metallic clusters of alkali atoms, as calculated from optimized limited valence basis sets, plays the dominant role.

Cu and Ag as one‐valence‐electron atoms: Pseudopotential results for Cu2, Ag2, CuH, AgH, and the corresponding cations

TL;DR: In this paper, a spin-density functional formalism was used to model the core-valence correlation of the X+ cores and their point-charge behavior, and the results for the diatomics XH m+ and X m+ 2 (X=Cu, Ag; m=0, 1) were presented.

Iterative perturbation calculations of ground and excited state energies from multiconfigurational zeroth‐order wavefunctions

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of configuration interaction by a Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation expansion when starting from a multiconfigurational wave function is calculated, and a barycentric defintion of H0 is proposed to ensure the cancellation of common diagrams in the calculated transition energies.

Extended Hartree—Fock Wavefunctions: Optimized Valence Configurations for H2 and Li2, Optimized Double Configurations for F2

TL;DR: In this paper, a configuration mixing method of the following nature is developed and illustrated for H2, Li2, and F2, which is capable of handling homonuclear diatomic molecules using as many as ten configurations.

The molecular electronic structure of the lowest 1Σ+g, 3Σ+u, 1Σ+u, 3Σ+g, 1Πu, 1Πg, 3Πu, and 3Πg states of Na2

TL;DR: In this paper, the multiconfiguration self-consistent field wave functions and potential energy curves for the lowest lying 1Σ+g, 1 Σ+u, 3Σ+, g, and 3Πu states of Na2 are reported, and they find the long range hump in the B 1 Πu curve to have its maximum height of 520 cm−1 above the separated atom asymptote at R=6.45±0.1

Extended Hartree—Fock Ground‐State Wavefunctions for the Lithium Molecule

G. Das
TL;DR: In this article, a configuration-mixing method is described for single-bonded diatomic molecules, in which both the orbitals from which the configurations are constructed, as well as the mixing coefficients, are optimized by way of solving SCF-type equations.

Testing the arbitrariness and limits of a pseudopotential technique through calculations on the series of diatoms HF, AlH, HCl, AlF, AlCl, F2, Cl2

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a semi-local pseudopotential extracted from near Hartree-Fock atomic calculations; the shape of the inner part of the pseudoorbital, the analytic form of the pseudo-potential are shown to have less influence than the choice of the valence basis set which must be optimized.
