On the dissociation energy of Cu2 and CuH using a differential correlation approach
The energy contributions involved in the “dissociation-consistent configuration interaction” (DCCI) scheme proposed by Goddard and co-workers plus the dispersion effects associated with the valence MOs adjacent to the bond (DISP) are evaluated for the Cu2 and CuH systems, following the “configuration interaction by perturbation with multiconfigurational zeroth-order wavefunction selected by iterative process” (CIPSI) algorithm. Using a relativistic pseudopotential to represent the neon core of copper, and a flexible basis set for the valence shell, the results obtained with the CIPSI/DCCI (+ DISP) approach shows a good agreement with previous theoretical results employing basis sets of simi…
Analysis of the CIPSI/DCCI approach to characterize the HF AND F2 single bond
Abstract The aim of the present work is to account for the main differential correlation contributions occurring during the bond breaking process of HF and F2 molecules in an accurate and inexpensive way. Starting from the dissociation-consistent configuration interaction (DCCI) scheme by Goddard and co-workers the corresponding contributions are evaluated within the framework reported by Malrieu and co-workers, namely configuration interaction by perturbation with multiconfigurational zeroth-order wavefunction selected by iterative process (CIPSI). In addition, the DCCI scheme has been improved by introducing the dispersion effects associated with the valence MOs adjacent to the bond. The …
