Thermal-, pressure- and light-induced spin-crossover behviour in the two-dimensional Hofman-like coordination polymer [Fe(3-Clpy)2Pd(CN)4]

2013

The thermal spin-crossover behaviour, photoexcitation and subsequent relaxation, as well as the pressure-induced spincrossover behaviour at 298 K are discussed for the non-porous two-dimensional Hofmann-like coordination polymer [Fe(3-Clpy)(2)Pd(CN)(4)] (1). The title compound undergoes a two-step, cooperative thermal-induced SCO with critical temperatures T-c1(down arrow) = 159.6 K and T-c1(up arrow) = 164.5 K for the first step and T-c2(down arrow) = 141.4 K and T-c2(up arrow) = 148.4 K for the second step. Irradiation of the low-spin state with green light (514 nm) at 10 K induced the photoexcitation of around 60% of the iron(II) centres to the high-spin state (LIESST effect). The subseq…

Structure of low-lying states in 140Sm studied by Coulomb excitation

2016

The electromagnetic structure of 140Sm was studied in a low-energy Coulomb excitation experiment with a radioactive ion beam from the REX-ISOLDE facility at CERN. The 2+ and 4+ states of the ground-state band and a second 2+ state were populated by multistep excitation. The analysis of the differential Coulomb excitation cross sections yielded reduced transition probabilities between all observed states and the spectroscopic quadrupole moment for the 2+ 1 state. The experimental results are compared to large-scale shell model calculations and beyond-mean-field calculations based on the Gogny D1S interaction with a five-dimensional collective Hamiltonian formalism. Simpler geometric and alge…

Coupled cluster calculations of the vertical excitation energies of tetracyanoethylene

2003

The vertical spectrum of tetracyanoethylene was studied using coupled cluster theory. It was found that the lowest singlet-singlet transition, which corresponds to the excitation from the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) to the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) excitation, occurs at 5.16 eV in the gas phase and is lowered approximately 0.1 eV due to solvent effects in acetonitrile. A parallel study on the ethene spectrum showed the quality of the basis sets and methods used, by placing the V state 7.92 eV above the ground state and giving an energy for the 0-0 transition of 5.42 eV to be compared with the experimental value of 5.50 eV.

Analytic second derivatives for general coupled-cluster and configuration-interaction models.

2004

Analytic second derivatives of energy for general coupled-cluster (CC) and configuration-interaction (CI) methods have been implemented using string-based many-body algorithms. Wave functions truncated at an arbitrary excitation level are considered. The presented method is applied to the calculation of CC and CI harmonic frequencies and nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts up to the full CI level for some selected systems. The present benchmarks underline the importance of higher excitations in high-accuracy calculations.

Ground and excited state geometries via Mukherjee’s multireference coupled-cluster method

2012

Abstract A comprehensive study of molecular equilibrium structures is conducted to benchmark the multireference coupled-cluster (CC) method suggested by Mukherjee and coworkers (Mk-MRCC). We determine equilibrium structures and adiabatic excitation energies by applying the Mk-MRCC method within the singles and doubles (SD) approximation to ground and excited states of various small and medium-sized molecules. The results are compared to those obtained using other multireference or single-reference CC methods. For most molecules with a multireference ground state, it is found that equilibrium structures and excitation energies computed at the Mk-MRCCSD, equation-of-motion CCSD, multireferenc…

Triple excitation effects in coupled cluster calculations of Verdet constants

2000

Abstract The CC3 approach has been employed to calculate the Verdet constants of N 2 ,C 2 H 2 , and CH 4 . For N 2 and C 2 H 2 , relatively large triples contributions are found which need to be included in order to reach close agreement with the experimental constants.

A simple scheme for the direct calculation of ionization potentials with coupled-cluster theory that exploits established excitation energy methods

1999

Vertical ionization potentials can be obtained from existing computer programs for the high-level treatment of excited states by simply including a continuum orbital in the basis set. Exploiting this feature easily allows final state energies for ionized states to be calculated at several previously untested levels of theory that go beyond the equation-of-motion coupled-cluster singles and doubles model. Values obtained for N2, CO, and F2 with the most theoretically complete approximations studied here (those based on the CCSDT-3 and CC3 parametrizations of the neutral ground state) are in excellent agreement with experiment when a large basis set is used.

Calculation of frequency-dependent polarizabilities using general coupled-cluster models

2006

Abstract An analytic scheme for the calculation of frequency-dependent polarizabilities within a response-theory approach has been implemented for the use within general coupled-cluster (CC) models with arbitrary excitations in the cluster operator. Calculations for CH + and CN demonstrate the fast convergence of the coupled-cluster approach when successively higher excitations are considered. Quadruple excitation effects on the frequency-dependent polarizabilities are found to be rather small except close to the poles.

Frequency-dependent polarizabilities and first hyperpolarizabilities of CO and H2O from coupled cluster calculations

1999

Abstract Frequency-dependent electronic polarizabilities and first hyperpolarizabilities for CO and H 2 O have been investigated in coupled-cluster response theory calculations. Triple excitation effects have been considered by means of the CC3 model which has recently been implemented for frequency-dependent polarizabilities and first hyperpolarizabilities. The final estimates for polarizabilities and first hyperpolarizabilities are in good agreement with experimental results.
