Ground and excited state properties of ThB − and ThB: a theoretical study

In the present work, we studied a series of electronic and spin–orbit states of ThB − and ThB using high-level multireference and coupled-cluster theories. We report the potential energy curves (PECs), equilibrium electron configurations, spectroscopic constants, energetics, and spin–orbit coupling effects of 17 and 19 electronic states of ThB − and ThB, respectively. The ground state of ThB − is a single-reference 1 3 Π with a 1σ 2 2σ 2 3σ 1 1π 3 electron configuration. Detachment of an electron from the doubly occupied 1π orbital of ThB − (1 3 Π) produces the single-reference ground electronic state of ThB (1 4 Σ − ). The ground spin–orbit states of ThB − and of ThB are 1 3 Π + 0 and 1 4 Σ − 3/2 , respectively. The vertical electron detachment energy (VDE) of ThB − and the adiabatic electron attachment energy (AEA) of ThB at our largest CBS-C-CCSD(T)+δT(Q)+δSO (complete basis set effect, spin–orbit effect, and triple and perturbative quadruple electron correlation effect added coupled-cluster theory with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations) level are 1.473 eV and 1.459, respectively. The reaction of Th( 3 F) + B( 2 P o ) produces the ground state of ThB with a bond energy of 2.843 eV. Finally, we estimated a heat of formation, Δ H 0 f (298 K), of 891.01 kJ mol −1 for the ThB molecule. The high-level findings of this work are expected to aid and motivate future experimental spectroscopic investigations of ThB and ThB − species.

Too big, too small, or just right? A benchmark assessment of density functional theory for predicting the spatial extent of the electron density of small chemical systems

Multipole moments are the first-order responses of the energy to spatial derivatives of the electric field strength. The quality of density functional theory prediction of molecular multipole moments thus characterizes errors in modeling the electron density itself, as well as the performance in describing molecules interacting with external electric fields. However, only the lowest non-zero moment is translationally invariant, making the higher-order moments origin-dependent. Therefore, instead of using the 3 × 3 quadrupole moment matrix, we utilize the translationally invariant 3 × 3 matrix of second cumulants (or spatial variances) of the electron density as the quantity of interest (denoted by K). The principal components of K are the square of the spatial extent of the electron density along each axis. A benchmark dataset of the principal components of K for 100 small molecules at the coupled cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples at the complete basis set limit is developed, resulting in 213 independent K components. The performance of 47 popular and recent density functionals is assessed against this Var213 dataset. Several functionals, especially double hybrids, and also SCAN and SCAN0 predict reliable second cumulants, although some modern, empirically parameterized functionals yield more disappointing performance. The H, Li, and Be atoms, in particular, are challenging for nearly all methods, indicating that future functional development could benefit from the inclusion of their density information in training or testing protocols.

Concordant Mode Approach (CMA): Vibrational Analysis of New and Upgraded Intermolecular Benchmarks for Noncovalent Bonding

The Concordant Mode Approach (CMA) is a novel method that offers tremendous potential for increasing the system size and the level of theory attainable in quantum chemical computations of molecular vibrational frequencies. To investigate the extension of CMA to intermolecular vibrations, computations with coupled cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples theory [CCSD(T)] using two augmented correlation-consistent polarized-valence triple-ζ basis sets (aug-cc-pVTZ or h-aug-ccpVTZ) were performed on 17 prototypical loosely bound complexes of hydrogen-bonded, dispersion, and mixed character. These Level A results provide new and upgraded benchmarks for noncovalent bonding and a severe test for CMA vibrational analyses. The Level A target frequencies were recovered remarkably well using second-order Møller−Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) with h-aug-cc-pVTZ for generating the underlying (Level B) normal modes of the CMA scheme. Employing this Level B within the lowest-rung CMA-0A method reproduces the 435 benchmark frequencies with a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.23 cm −1 and a corresponding standard deviation (σ) of 0.84 cm −1 ; strikingly, the corresponding subset of 106 interfragment frequencies exhibits MAE = 0.34 cm −1 and σ = 0.90 cm −1 . Subsequent application of the higher-rung CMA-2A scheme eliminates all outliers and reduces the overall MAE to a minuscule 0.08 cm −1 with the inclusion of only 3.0% of the off-diagonal couplings not accounted for by CMA-0A. Accordingly, the highly efficient CMA methodology proves to be robust even for vibrations on flat potential energy surfaces.

Fermi–Löwdin orbital self-interaction correction of adsorption energies on transition metal ions

Density functional theory (DFT)-based descriptions of the adsorption of small molecules on transition metal ions are prone to self-interaction errors. Here, we show that such errors lead to a large over-estimation of adsorption energies of small molecules on Cu + , Zn + , Zn 2+ , and Mn + in local spin density approximation (LSDA) and Perdew, Burke, Ernzerhof (PBE) generalized gradient approximation calculations compared to reference values computed using the coupled-cluster with single, doubles, and perturbative triple excitations method. These errors are significantly reduced by removing self-interaction using the Perdew–Zunger self-interaction correction (PZ-SIC) in the Fermi–Löwdin Orbital (FLO) SIC framework. In the case of FLO-PBE, typical errors are reduced to less than 0.1 eV. Furthermore, analysis of the results using DFT energies evaluated on self-interaction-corrected densities [DFT(@FLO)] indicates that the density-driven contributions to the FLO-DFT adsorption energy corrections are roughly the same size in DFT = LSDA and PBE, but the total corrections due to removing self-interaction are larger in LSDA.

Real-time equation-of-motion CC cumulant and CC Green’s function simulations of photoemission spectra of water and water dimer

Newly developed coupled-cluster (CC) methods enable simulations of ionization potentials and spectral functions of molecular systems in a wide range of energy scales ranging from core-binding to valence. This paper discusses the results obtained with the real-time equation-of-motion CC cumulant (RT-EOM-CC) approach and CC Green’s function (CCGF) approaches in applications to the water and water dimer molecules. Here, we compare the ionization potentials obtained with these methods for the valence region with the results obtained with the coupled-cluster with singles, doubles, and perturbative triples formulation as a difference of energies for N and N – 1 electron systems. All methods show good agreement with each other. They also agree well with the experiment with errors usually below 0.1 eV for the ionization potentials. We also analyze unique features of the spectral functions, associated with the position of satellite peaks, obtained with the RT-EOM-CC and CCGF methods employing single and double excitations, as a function of the monomer OH bond length and the proton transfer coordinate in the dimer. Finally, we analyze the impact of the basis set effects on the quality of calculated ionization potentials and find that the basis set effects are less pronounced for the augmented-type sets.

A molecular ground electronic state with an occupied 5g spinor—The superheavy (E125)F molecule

Fully relativistic calculations, primarily at the 4-component coupled-cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples [CCSD(T)] level of theory with the Dirac–Coulomb (DC) Hamiltonian, have been carried out for the superheavy (E125)F molecule using large Gaussian basis sets. The electronic ground state is determined to have an [Og]8s 2 5g 1 6f 3 configuration on E125 with an Ω = 6 ground state and an 8p electron largely donated to F. A Mulliken population analysis indicates that the ground state is mainly ionic with a partial charge of +0.79 on E125 and a single sigma bond involving the F 2p and E125 8p spinors. The occupied g spinor is not involved in the bonding. With the largest basis set used in this work, the (0 K) dissociation energy was calculated at the DC-CCSD(T) level of theory to be 7.02 eV. Analogous calculations were also carried out for the E125 atom, both the neutral and its cation. The lowest energy electron configuration of E125 + , [Og]$8s$$^{2}_{1/2}$$5g$$^{1}_{7/2}$$6f$$^{3}_{5/2}$ with a J = 6 ground state, was found to be similar to that in (E125)F, while the neutral E125 atom has an [Og]$8s$$^{2}_{1/2}$$5g$$^{1}_{7/2}$$6f$$^{2}_{5/2}$$7d$$^{1}_{3/2}$$8p$$^{1}_{1/2}$ ground state electron configuration with a J = 17/2 ground state. The ionization energy (IE) of E125 is reported for the first time and is calculated to be 4.70 eV at the DC-CCSD(T) level of theory. Non-relativistic calculations were also carried out on the E125 atom and the (E125)F molecule. Here, the non-relativistic ground state of the E125 atom was calculated to have a 5g 5 ground state with an IE of just 3.4 eV. The net effect of relativity on (E125)F is to stabilize its bonding.

Exploration of ICP platforms for measuring elemental impurities in uranium ore concentrates

Presented here is a look at different inductively coupled plasma (ICP) platforms including sector field, triple quadrupole mass spectrometric configurations, and optical emission spectroscopy. The goal of this paper was to convey the feasibility of trace elemental analysis of a uranium ore concentrate with varying ICP-based platforms. It was predicted that low mass elements would be better determined through optical means, or the mass collision/reaction technology of the triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, in comparison to high resolution measurements of magnetic sector-based configurations. Ultimately, it is difficult to achieve an “optimal” analysis of 20+ elements, for numerous samples, on a single platform, especially when time, measurement reproducibility, sensitivity, and robustness should be considered. The work presented here highlights the advantages and disadvantages of the respective trace elemental analysis platforms.

Sequential Bond Dissociation Energies of Th + (CO) x , x = 3–6: Guided Ion Beam Collision-Induced Dissociation and Quantum Computational Studies

Collision-induced dissociation (CID) of [Th,xC,xO] + , x = 3–6, with Xe is performed using a guided ion beam tandem mass spectrometer (GIBMS). Products are formed exclusively by the loss of CO ligands. Analyses of the kinetic energy-dependent CID product cross sections yield bond dissociation energies (BDEs) of (CO) x–1 Th + –CO at 0 K as 1.09 ± 0.05, 0.82 ± 0.07, 0.63 ± 0.05, and 0.70 ± 0.05 eV, respectively. Different structures of [Th,xC,xO] + were explored using various electronic structure methods, and BDEs for CO ligand loss from precursor [Th,xC,xO] + complexes were computed. Both experimental and theoretical results corroborate that the structures of [Th,xC,xO] + , x = 3–6, formed experimentally are homoleptic thorium cation carbonyl complexes, Th + (CO) x . The nonmonotonic trend in experimental BDEs is reproduced theoretically, although ambiguities in the spin states of the x = 4–6 complexes (doublet or quartet) remain. BDEs calculated at the coupled cluster with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations (CCSD(T))/cc-pVXZ//B3LYP/cc-PVXZ (X = T and Q) level and a complete basis set (CBS) extrapolation agree reasonably well with the experimental values for all complexes. Thorium oxide ketenylidene carbonyl cations, OTh + CCO(CO) y , y = 1–4, were calculated to be the most stable structures of [Th,xC,xO] + , x = 3–6, respectively; however, these are not observed in our experiment. Potential energy profiles (PEPs) having either quartet or doublet spin calculated at the B3LYP/cc-pVQZ level suggest that the failure to observe OTh + CCO(CO) y , y = 1–4, is the result of a barrier corresponding to the C–C bond formation, making the formation of OTh + CCO(CO) y inaccessible kinetically under the present experimental conditions.

Convergent Concordant Mode Approach for Molecular Vibrations: CMA-2

The concordant mode approach (CMA) is a promising new scheme for dramatically increasing the system size and level of theory achievable in quantum chemical computations of molecular vibrational frequencies. Here, we achieve advances in the CMA hierarchy by computations targeting CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ (coupled cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples using a correlation-consistent polarized-valence triple-ζ basis set) benchmarks within the G2 molecular test set, executing a statistical analysis for 1501 frequencies from 111 compounds and then separately solving the refractory case of pyridine. First, MP2/cc-pVTZ (second-order Møller–Plesset perturbation theory with the same basis set) proves to be an excellent and preferred choice for generating the underlying (Level B) normal modes of the CMA scheme. Utilizing this Level B within the CMA-0A method reproduces the 1501 benchmark frequencies with a mean absolute error (MAE) of only 0.11 cm –1 and an attendant standard deviation of 0.49 cm –1 . Second, a convergent CMA-2 method is constituted that allows efficient computation of higher level (Level A) frequencies to any reasonable accuracy threshold by using only Hartree–Fock (HF) and MP2 or density functional theory (DFT) data to generate ξ parameters, which select the sparse off-diagonal force field elements for explicit evaluation at Level A. When Level B = MP2/cc-pVTZ, a cutoff of ξ = 0.02 provides an average maximum absolute error per molecule of only 0.17 cm –1 by incurring merely a 33% increase in average cost over CMA-0A. This CMA-2 method also eradicates the 4 problematic CMA-0A outliers of pyridine with even less effort (ξ = 0.04, 22% increase). Finally, the newly developed CMA procedures are shown to be highly successful when applied to 1-(1H-pyrrol-3-yl)ethanol, a new test molecule with diverse types of vibration.

Beyond CCSD(T) Accuracy at Lower Scaling with Auxiliary Field Quantum Monte Carlo

We introduce a black-box auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC) approach to perform highly accurate electronic structure calculations using configuration interaction singles and doubles (CISD) trial states. This method consistently provides more accurate energy estimates than coupled cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples (CCSD(T)), often regarded as the gold standard in quantum chemistry. This level of precision is achieved at a lower asymptotic computational cost, scaling as O(N 6 ) compared to the O(N 7 ) scaling of CCSD(T). Furthermore, we provide numerical evidence supporting these findings through results for challenging main group and transition metal-containing molecules.

Performance of Diffusion Monte Carlo Calculations for Predicting the Relative Energies of Quinoidal and Nonquinoidal Species

Coupled cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples [CCSD(T)] and single determinant fixed-node diffusion Monte Carlo (SD-DMC) have emerged as two of the most useful methods for providing benchmark reaction and interaction energies of chemical systems without strong static correlation. The errors in DMC energies are dominated by an inexact description of the nodal surfaces for electron exchange. One of the main approaches to addressing the fixed-node error is to use multideterminant (MD) trial wave functions. We consider here the energy differences between pairs of related molecules with aromatic and quinoidal structures as well as between quinoidal isomers. Quinoidal systems tend to have some diradical character, leading one to anticipate that SD-DMC calculations may face challenges in accurately describing their energetics. The MD trial wave functions were generated from the complete active space calculations. A comparison is made with the predictions of well-converged CCSD(T) calculations.

Coupled cluster benchmarks of large noncovalent complexes: The L7 dataset as well as DNA–ellipticine and buckycatcher–fullerene

In this work, benchmark binding energies for dispersion-bound complexes in the L7 dataset, the DNA–ellipticine intercalation complex, and the buckycatcher–C60 complex with 120 heavy atoms using a focal-point method based on the canonical form of second-order Møller−Plesset theory (MP2) and the domain based local pair natural orbital scheme for the coupled cluster with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations [CCSD(T)] extrapolated to the complete basis set (CBS) limit are reported. This work allows for increased confidence given the agreement with respect to values recently obtained using the local natural orbital CCSD(T) for L7 and the canonical CCSD(T)/CBS result for the coronene dimer (C2C2PD). Therefore, these results can be considered pushing the CCSD(T)/CBS binding benchmark to the hundred-atom scale. The disagreements between the two state-of-the-art methods, CCSD(T) and fixed-node diffusion Monte Carlo, are substantial with at least 2.0 (∼10%), 1.9 (∼5%), and 10.3 kcal/mol (∼25%) differences for C2C2PD in L7, DNA–ellipticine, and buckycatcher–C60, respectively. Such sizable discrepancy above “chemical accuracy” for large noncovalent complexes indicates how challenging it is to obtain benchmark binding interactions for systems beyond small molecules, although the three up-to-date density functionals, PBE0+D4, ωB97M-V, and B97M-V, agree better with CCSD(T) for these large systems. In addition to reporting these values, different basis sets and various CBS extrapolation parameters for Hartree–Fock and MP2 correlation energies were tested for the first time in large noncovalent complexes with the goal of providing some indications toward optimal cost effective routes to approach the CBS limit without substantial loss in quality.

Formation and detection of metastable formic acid in a supersonic expansion: High resolution infrared spectroscopy of the jet-cooled cis -HCOOH conformer

High-resolution direct absorption infrared spectra of metastable cis-formic acid (HCOOH) trapped in a cis-well resonance behind a 15 kcal/mol barrier are reported for the first time, with the energetically unstable conformer produced in a supersonic slit plasma expansion of trans-formic acid/H 2 mixtures. We present a detailed high-resolution rovibrational analysis for cis-formic acid species in the OH stretch (ν 1 ) fundamental, providing first precision vibrational band origin, rotational constants, and term values, which in conjunction with ab initio calculations at the couple-cluster with single, double, and perturbative triple [CCSD(T)]/ANOn (n = 0, 1, 2) level support the experimental assignments and establish critical points on the potential energy surface for internal rotor trans-to-cis isomerization. Relative intensities for a- and b-type transitions observed in the spectra permit the transition dipole moment components to be determined in the body fixed frame and prove to be in good agreement with ab initio CCSD(T) theoretical estimates but in poor agreement with simple bond-dipole predictions. As a result, the observed signal dependence on H 2 in the discharge suggests the presence of a novel H atom radical chemical mechanism for strongly endothermic “up-hill” internal rotor isomerization between trans- and cis-formic acid conformers.

The many-body expansion for metals. I. The alkaline earth metals Be, Mg, and Ca

We examine the many-body expansion (MBE) for alkaline earth metal clusters, Be n , Mg n , Ca n ( n = 4, 5, 6), at the Møller–Plesset second order perturbation theory, coupled-cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples, multi-reference perturbation theory, and multi-reference configuration interaction levels of theory. The magnitude of each term in the MBE is evaluated for several geometrical configurations. We find that the behavior of the MBE for these clusters depends strongly on the geometrical arrangement and, to a lesser extent, on the level of theory used. Another factor that affects the MBE is the in situ (ground or excited) electronic state of the individual atoms in the cluster. For most geometries, the three-body term is the largest, followed by a steady decrease in absolute energy for subsequent terms. Though these systems exhibit non-negligible multi-reference effects, there was little qualitative difference in the MBE when employing single vs multi-reference methods. Useful insights into the connectivity and stability of these clusters have been drawn from the respective potential energy surfaces and quasi-atomic orbitals for the various dimers, trimers, and tetramers. Through these analyses, we investigate the similarities and differences in the binding energies of different-sized clusters for these metals.

Helium droplet infrared spectroscopy of the butyl radicals

Butyl radicals (n-, s-, i-, and tert-butyl) are formed from the pyrolysis of stable precursors (1-pentyl nitrite, 2-methyl-1-butyl nitrite, isopentyl nitrite, and azo-tert-butane, respectively). The radicals are doped into a beam of liquid helium droplets and probed with infrared action spectroscopy from 2700 to 3125 cm -1 , allowing for a low temperature measurement of the CH stretching region. The presence of anharmonic resonance polyads in the 2800–3000 cm -1 region complicates its interpretation. To facilitate spectral assignment, the anharmonic resonances are modeled with two model Hamiltonian approaches that explicitly couple CH stretch fundamentals to HCH bend overtones and combinations: a VPT2+K normal mode model based on coupled-cluster with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations [CCSD(T)] quartic force fields and a semi-empirical local mode model. Both of these computational methods provide generally good agreement with the experimental spectra.

Vertical detachment energies of ammonia cluster anions using self-interaction-corrected methods

Systems with weakly bound extra electrons impose great challenges to semilocal density functional approximations (DFAs), which suffer from self-interaction errors. Small ammonia clusters are one such example of weakly bound anions where the extra electron is weakly bound. We applied two self-interaction correction (SIC) schemes, viz., the well-known Perdew–Zunger and the recently developed locally scaled SIC (LSIC) with the local spin density approximation (LSDA), Perdew–Burke–Ernzerhof (PBE) generalized gradient approximation (GGA), and the SCAN meta-GGA functionals to calculate the vertical detachment energies (VDEs) of small ammonia cluster anions (NH3)n–. Our results show that the LSIC significantly reduces the errors in calculations of VDE with LSDA and PBE-GGA functionals leading to better agreement with the reference values calculated with coupled cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples [CCSD(T)]. Accurate prediction of VDE as an absolute of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) is challenging for DFAs. Our results show that VDEs estimated from the negative of HOMO eigenvalues with the LSIC-LSDA and Perdew–Zunger SIC-PBE are within 11 meV of the reference CCSD(T) results. Here, the LSIC method performs consistently well for the VDE estimates, from both the total energy differences and the absolute HOMO eigenvalues.

Improving gas adsorption modeling for MOFs by local calibration of Hubbard U parameters

While computational screening with density functional theory (DFT) is frequently employed for the screening of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) for gas separation and storage, commonly applied generalized gradient approximations (GGAs) exhibit self-interaction errors, which hinder the predictions of adsorption energies. We investigate the Hubbard U parameter to augment DFT calculations for full periodic MOFs, targeting a more precise modeling of gas molecule–MOF interactions, specifically for N2, CO2, and O2. We introduce a calibration scheme for the U parameter, which is tailored for each MOF, by leveraging higher-level calculations on the secondary building unit (SBU) of the MOF. When applied to the full periodic MOF, the U parameter calibrated against hybrid HSE06 calculations of SBUs successfully reproduces hybrid-quality calculations of the adsorption energy of the periodic MOF. The mean absolute deviation of adsorption energies reduces from 0.13 eV for a standard GGA treatment to 0.06 eV with the calibrated U, demonstrating the utility of the calibration procedure when applied to the full MOF structure. Furthermore, attempting to use coupled cluster singles and doubles with perturbative triples calculations of isolated SBUs for this calibration procedure shows varying degrees of success in predicting the experimental heat of adsorption. It improves accuracy for N2 adsorption for cases of overbinding, whereas its impact on CO2 is minimal, and ambiguities in spin state assignment hinder consistent improvements of O2 adsorption. Our findings emphasize the limitations of cluster models and advocate the use of full periodic MOF systems with a calibrated U parameter, providing a more comprehensive understanding of gas adsorption in MOFs.

Ab Initio Many Body Quantum Embedding and Local Correlation in Crystalline Materials using Interpolative Separable Density Fitting

We present an efficient implementation of ab initio many-body quantum embedding and local correlation methods for infinite periodic systems through translational symmetry adapted interpolative separable density fitting, an approach which reduces the scaling of the calculations to only linear with the number of k-points. Employing this methodology, we compute correlated ground-state coupled cluster energies within density matrix embedding and local natural orbital correlation frameworks for both weakly and strongly correlated solids, using up to 1000 k-points. By extrapolating the local correlation domains and k-point sampling we further obtain estimates of the full coupled cluster with singles, doubles, and perturbative triples ground-state energies in the thermodynamic limit.
