Coupled quasidiabatic potential energy surfaces for LiFH
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present high-level ab initio calculations for the global adiabatic potential energy surfaces of the ground state (X̃ A8) and several excited states ~Ã A8, B̃ A9, C̃ A8, D̃ A8, and Ẽ A9! of LiFH, including the valleys leading to Li1HF and LiF1H. The ab initio calculations were carried out using the multireference singles and doubles configuration interaction method with 99 reference configuration state functions ~CSFs! for the A8 states and 39 reference CSFs for the A9 states. The basis set consisted of 140 contracted Gaussian functions, including specifically optimized diffuse functions, and calculations were performed on a dense grid of ;3500 nuclear geometries which allowed us to construct an accurate analytic representation of the two lowest-energy LiFH potential energy surfaces. An analytic 232 quasidiabatic potential energy matrix was obtained by fitting physically motivated functional forms to the ab initio data for the two lowest-energy adiabatic states and explicitly including long-range interactions. The newly presented LiFH fit is compared to several ground-state LiFH fits and one excited-state LiFH fit that have appeared in the literature. © 2002 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1463440#

Evidence for excited spin-orbit state reaction dynamics in F+H2: theory and experiment.
We describe fully quantum, time-independent scattering calculations of the F+H2-->HF+H reaction, concentrating on the HF product rotational distributions in v'=3. The calculations involved two new sets of ab initio potential energy surfaces, based on large basis set, multireference configuration-interaction calculations, which are further scaled to reproduce the experimental exoergicity of the ...
متن کاملPhase transition of the dry friction between crystalline surfaces induced by normal load
A major source of energy dissipation and surface wear is the kinetic friction at the interfaces of sliding bodies. Traditionally, on a macroscopic scale, this undesirable effect is reduced with lubricating the surfaces by introducing oil into their interface. An interesting phenomenon, called superlubricity, has been reported on a nanometer scale where dry (without lubricant oil) fruition and w...

Calculation for Energy of (111) Surfaces of Palladium in Tight Binding Model
In this work calculation of energetics of transition metal surfaces is presented. The tight-binding model is employed in order to calculate the energetics. The tight-binding basis set is limited to d orbitals which are valid for elements at the end of transition metals series. In our analysis we concentrated on electronic effects at temperature T=0 K, this means that no entropic term will be pr...
متن کاملDirect calculation of coupled diabatic potential-energy surfaces for ammonia and mapping of a four-dimensional conical intersection seam.
We used multiconfiguration quasidegenerate perturbation theory and the fourfold-way direct diabatization scheme to calculate ab initio potential-energy surfaces at 3600 nuclear geometries of NH3. The calculations yield the adiabatic and diabatic potential-energy surfaces for the ground and first electronically excited singlet states and also the diabatic coupling surfaces. The diabatic surfaces...
