Dynamic Polarizability and Higher-Order Electric Properties of Fluorene, Carbazole, and Dibenzofuran

Static electric properties, from the dipole moment to the second-hyperpolarizability tensor γ, of the 3-membered, isoelectronic ring molecules, fluorene (FL), carbazole (CR), and dibenzofuran (DBF), have been calculated at various levels of approximation. The electron correlation effects have been included at the coupled-cluster (CC) level, using CCSD and CC2 versions of the method. DFT calculations with the CAM-B3LYP functional have also been performed, and the results are compared to the CC values. The electric property-tailored Pol basis set and its more compact Z3Pol version have been employed in all static calculations. Differences between dipole polarizability values computed at the P…
