Ab initio compact group model potentials for describing environment effects in cluster calculations
A method for the determination of ab initio group model potentials within the Hartree]Fock framework is reported. Following the theory of separability of many electron systems, a new way to incorporate the effect of complete chemical entities by means of polycenter compact model potentials is presented. The interaction between active and frozen electrons is partitioned as a sum of longand short...
متن کاملEmbedding Fragment ab Initio Model Potentials in CASSCF/CASPT2 Calculations of Doped Solids: Implementation and Applications.
In this article, we present a fragment model potential approach for the description of the crystalline environment as an extension of the use of embedding ab initio model potentials (AIMPs). The biggest limitation of the embedding AIMP method is the spherical nature of its model potentials. This poses problems as soon as the method is applied to crystals containing strongly covalently bonded st...
متن کاملElectronic states of the Cr2O3(0001) surface from ab initio embedded cluster calculations
The electronic structure of the Cr2O3(0001) surface is studied by means of ab initio embedded cluster calculations. Charge distributions and local d–d excitations are analysed for different geometrical relaxations of the surface. In the ground state there is considerable delocalization of electrons from the oxygen 2p band into the partly occupied 3d AOs of the Cr cations at the surface such tha...
متن کاملAb-initio calculations of charge exchange in ion-surface collisions: an embedded-cluster approach
We discuss the feasibility of the embedded cluster approach for ab-initio calculations of charge exchange between ions and a LiF surface. We show that the discrete density of valence states in embedded clusters converges towards the continuum limit of the density of states in the valence band of an infinitely extended LiF surface. Screening of the holes that are left in the surface after electr...
متن کاملAu55, a stable glassy cluster: results of ab initio calculations
Structure and properties of small nanoparticles are still under discussion. Moreover, some thermodynamic properties and the structural behavior still remain partially unknown. One of the best investigated nanoparticles is the Au55 cluster, which has been analyzed experimentally and theoretically. However, up to now, the results of these studies are still inconsistent. Consequently, we have carr...
