Ionization energies of water from PNO-CI calculations

Meyer, Wilfried·2009·International Journal of Quantum Chemistry

Abstract

A new configuration interaction method using a non-orthogonal set of pseudonatural orbitals (PNO-CI) is applied to the ground state of water and five states of the ionized molecule. Including only double substitutions, the computed upper bound for the ground state is 0.0631 a.u. above the experimental non-relativistic value. An approximate treatment of unlinked clusters lowers the energy by 0.0145 a.u. Thus above 90% of the total correlation energy is accounted for. The computed vertical ionization energies (IE's) agree with experiment to within 2%. An analysis of the IE's shows the causes of anomalous behavior of correlation energies and supports a suggestion for useful limited CI calculations of vertical IE's. The equilibrium geometries of the three lowest states of the ion are determined by SCF calculations and estimates for the adiabatic IE's are given.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
