  • a comprehensive analysis of molecule intrinsic quasi atomic bonding and correlating Orbitals i hartree fock wave functions
    Journal of Chemical Physics, 2013
    Co-Authors: Aaron C West, Michael W. Schmidt, Mark S Gordon, Klaus Ruedenberg
    Abstract:

    Through a basis-set-independent web of localizing orbital-transformations, the electronic wave function of a molecule is expressed in terms of a set of Orbitals that reveal the atomic structure and the bonding pattern of a molecule. The analysis is based on resolving the valence orbital space in terms of an internal space, which has minimal basis set dimensions, and an external space. In the internal space, oriented quasi-atomic Orbitals and split-localized molecular Orbitals are determined by new, fast localization methods. The density matrix between the oriented quasi-atomic Orbitals as well as the locations of the split-localized Orbitals exhibit atomic populations and inter-atomic bonding patterns. A correlation-adapted quasi-atomic basis is determined in the external orbital space. The general formulations are specified in detail for Hartree-Fock wave functions. Applications to specific molecules exemplify the general scheme.

  • molecule intrinsic minimal basis sets i exact resolution of ab initio optimized molecular Orbitals in terms of deformed atomic minimal basis Orbitals
    Journal of Chemical Physics, 2004
    Co-Authors: W.c. Lu, L Bytautas, Michael W. Schmidt, Cai Zhuang Wang, Kaiming Ho, Klaus Ruedenberg
    Abstract:

    A method is presented for expressing the occupied self-consistent-field (SCF) Orbitals of a molecule exactly in terms of chemically deformed atomic minimal-basis-set Orbitals that deviate as little as possible from free-atom SCF minimal-basis Orbitals. The molecular Orbitals referred to are the exact SCF Orbitals, the free-atom Orbitals referred to are the exact atomic SCF Orbitals, and the formulation of the deformed “quasiatomic minimal-basis-sets” is independent of the calculational atomic orbital basis used. The resulting resolution of molecular Orbitals in terms of quasiatomic minimal basis set Orbitals is therefore intrinsic to the exact molecular wave functions. The deformations are analyzed in terms of interatomic contributions. The Mulliken population analysis is formulated in terms of the quasiatomic minimal-basis Orbitals. In the virtual SCF orbital space the method leads to a quantitative ab initio formulation of the qualitative model of virtual valence Orbitals, which are useful for calculati...

The method is applicable to Kohn–Sham density functional theory Orbitals and is easily generalized to valence MCSCF Orbitals.

  • electronic states and possible origin of the orbital glass state in a nearly metallic spinel cobalt vanadate an x ray magnetic circular dichroism study
    Physical Review B, 2018
    Co-Authors: Yosuke Nonaka, Goro Shibata, Rui Koborinai, K Ishigami, Shoya Sakamoto, Keisuke Ikeda, Zhendong Chi, T Koide, Arata Tanaka, Takuro Katsufuji
    Abstract:

    We have investigated the orbital states of the orbital-glassy (short-range orbital ordered) spinel vanadate Co$_{1.21}$V$_{1.79}$O$_{4}$ using x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), and subsequent configuration-interaction cluster-model calculation. From the sign of the XMCD spectra, it was found that the spin magnetic moment of the Co ion is aligned parallel to the applied magnetic field and that of the V ion anti-parallel to it, consistent with neutron scattering studies. It was revealed that the excess Co ions at the octahedral site take the trivalent low-spin state, and induce a random potential to the V sublattice. The orbital magnetic moment of the V ion is small although finite, suggesting that the ordered Orbitals mainly consists of real-number Orbitals.

  • extraction of one handed helical frontier orbital in even n cumulenes by breaking mirror images of right and left handed helical Orbitals theoretical study
    Journal of Physical Chemistry C, 2019
    Co-Authors: Yuuichi Orimoto, Yuriko Aoki, Akira Imamura
    Abstract:

    Even [n]cumulenes with an even number n of double bonds are known to have degenerate helical frontier Orbitals even in linear-chain structures. Theoretical analysis was conducted to separate one-handed helical Orbitals from the others in cumulenes to determine their enantioselective chemical/physical properties. Donor ((NH2)3C−) and acceptor ((NO2)3C−) substituents separate the degenerate energy levels of right- and left-handed helical frontier Orbitals in even [n]cumulenes. Lone pairs (LPs) in the donor group can interact with helical Orbitals on the cumulene backbone, leading to “LP–helical orbital” interactions. A difference in the manner of interaction between left- and right-handed Orbitals, depending on the LP direction, breaks the mirror symmetry between them. Consequent energy splitting between left- and right-handed Orbitals results in extraction of a one-handed helical frontier orbital only. This is the first example of extracting a one-handed helical frontier orbital while maintaining sufficien...

  • Extraction of One-Handed Helical Frontier Orbital in Even [n]Cumulenes by Breaking Mirror Images of Right- and Left-Handed Helical Orbitals: Theoretical Study
    2019
    Co-Authors: Yuuichi Orimoto, Yuriko Aoki, Akira Imamura
    Abstract:

    Even [n]­cumulenes with an even number n of double bonds are known to have degenerate helical frontier Orbitals even in linear-chain structures. Theoretical analysis was conducted to separate one-handed helical Orbitals from the others in cumulenes to determine their enantioselective chemical/physical properties. Donor ((NH2)3C−) and acceptor ((NO2)3C−) substituents separate the degenerate energy levels of right- and left-handed helical frontier Orbitals in even [n]­cumulenes. Lone pairs (LPs) in the donor group can interact with helical Orbitals on the cumulene backbone, leading to “LP–helical orbital” interactions. A difference in the manner of interaction between left- and right-handed Orbitals, depending on the LP direction, breaks the mirror symmetry between them. Consequent energy splitting between left- and right-handed Orbitals results in extraction of a one-handed helical frontier orbital only. This is the first example of extracting a one-handed helical frontier orbital while maintaining sufficiently large energy splitting in even [n]­cumulene in the framework of C1 molecular symmetry by donor–acceptor substitutions

  • parallel linear scaling building block and embedding method based on localized Orbitals and orbital specific basis sets
    Journal of Chemical Physics, 2004
    Co-Authors: Luis Seijo, Zoila Barandiaran
    Abstract:

    We present a linear scaling method for the energy minimization step of semiempirical and first-principles Hartree–Fock and Kohn–Sham calculations. It is based on the self-consistent calculation of the optimum localized Orbitals of any localization method of choice and on the use of orbital-specific basis sets. The full set of localized Orbitals of a large molecule is seen as an orbital mosaic where each tessera is made of only a few of them. The orbital tesserae are computed out of a set of embedded cluster pseudoeigenvalue coupled equations which are solved in a building-block self-consistent fashion. In each iteration, the embedded cluster equations are solved independently of each other and, as a result, the method is parallel at a high level of the calculation. In addition to full system calculations, the method enables to perform simpler, much less demanding embedded cluster calculations, where only a fraction of the localized molecular Orbitals are variational while the rest is frozen, taking advantage of the transferability of the localized Orbitals of a given localization method between similar molecules. Monitoring single point energy calculations of large poly(ethylene oxide) molecules and three dimensional carbon monoxide clusters using an extended Huckel Hamiltonian are presented.
