Projector Augmented Wave

A new family of polarization consistent basis set, combined with the projector augmented wave method, was introduced. The basis sets are compact and have good performance as compared to conventional all-electron basis sets in DFT calculations.

Abstract Detailed study of Jensen’s polarization-consistent vs. Dunning’s correlation-consistent basis set families performance on the extrapolation of raw and counterpoise-corrected interaction energies of water dimer using coupled cluster with single, double, and perturbative correction for connected triple excitations (CCSD(T)) in the complete basis set (CBS) limit are reported. Both 3-parameter exponential and 2-parameter inverse-power fits vs. the cardinal number of basis set, as well as the number of basis functions were analyzed and compared with one of the most extensive CCSD(T) results reported recently. The obtained results for both Jensen- and Dunning-type basis sets underestimate raw interaction energy by less than 0.136 kcal/mol with respect to the reference value of − 4.98065 kcal/mol. The use of counterpoise correction further improves (closer to the reference value) interaction energy. Asymptotic convergence of 3-parameter fitted interaction energy with respect to both cardinal number of basis set and the number of basis functions are closer to the reference value at the CBS limit than other fitting approaches considered here. Separate fits of Hartree-Fock and correlation interaction energy with 3-parameter formula additionally improved the results, and the smallest CBS deviation from the reference value is about 0.001 kcal/mol (underestimated) for CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVXZ calculations. However, Jensen’s basis set underestimates such value to 0.012 kcal/mol. No improvement was observed for using the number of basis functions instead of cardinal number for fitting.

The accurate adiabatic electron affinities (EA) of the BN, NO and NF molecules have been determined using the coupled cluster approach and multireference configuration interaction methods. By combining large doubly augmented correlation-consistent basis sets (through the sextuple zeta) and complete basis set extrapolations with corrections for core-valence correlation and relativistic effects, we find that the RCCSD(T) method gives EA(BN) = 3.153 eV in very close agreement with experiment and predicts EA(NF) = 0.247 eV. The RCCSD(T) and UCCSD(T) EA(NO) results, 0.008 and 0.031 eV, bracket the experimental value. For both the neutral and anionic ground state species the usual spectroscopic constants were derived.
