Multiply Charged Ions Quantum Chemical Computations Trento, May 2002 Lecture 2
Basis Sets - 1 Usually atom-centered
Basis Sets - 2 l=m=n=o ‘s’ l or m or n = 1 ‘p’ l + m + n = 2 ‘d’ l + m + n = 3 ‘f’
Types of Basis Set • Minimal (one s, p (& d, f) function per shell. STO-3G • Double- (two functions per shell or valence shell). E.g. 3-21G, 6-31G, DZ, SV, … • Triple-, Quadruple- • Polarisation functions: Double- + polarisation (e.g. 6-31G*, 6-31G**, cc-pVDZ, SVP) usually adequate for HF, geometry.
CI • Only CISD practical (partly physically motivated!!) • Slow convergence with basis set size (roughly 1/n3) • Size inconsistent
MPn • Approximate solution to correct Schrödinger equation • Exact solution to a different equation where Vee is replaced by <Vee> • Apply perturbation theory (Møller-Plesset) • To second order (MP2), gives most of the correlation energy in favourable cases
MP2 • Poor performance of MP2 when small band gap • Size consistent
CC Restrict to T2 (CCSD):
CCSD(T) et al. • Only CCSD, CCSD(T) generally feasible • Size consistent • CCSD(T) very accurate where band gap is large (“method of choice”)
Basis Sets and Correlation Slow convergence with basis size!
Correlation Consistent B.S.s T. H. Dunning et al.: • cc-pVDZ: 3s, 2p, 1d (lmax = 2) • cc-pVTZ: 4s, 3p, 2d, 1f (lmax = 3) • cc-pVQZ: 5s, 4p, 3d, 2f, 1g (lmax = 4) • cc-pV5Z: 6s, 5p, 4d, 3f, 2g, 1h (lmax = 5)
