Hartree-Fock Self-Consistent-Field Methodbased on Slater determinants (Hartree+Pauli)

(J. C. Slater & V. Fock, 1930) (Review)

•Each  has variational parameters (to be changed to minimize E) including theeffective nuclear charge  (instead of the formal nuclear charge Z)

•Variational condition

•Variation with respect to the one-electron orbitals {i}, which are orthonormal

or its combination for lower E

Hartree-Fock equation (One-electron equation)

-Two-electron repulsion operator (1/rij) is replaced by one-electron operator VHF(i),which takes it into account in an “average” way.

-Any one electron sees only the spatially averaged

position of all other electrons.

-VHF(i) is spherically symmetric.

- (Instantaneous) electron correlation

is ignored.

-Spherical harmonics (s, p, d, …) are valid

angular-part eigenfunction (as for H-like atoms).

-Radial-part eigenfunction of H-like atoms are not valid any more.

•Larger basis set give higher-quality wave functions and lower energies

(but they are more computationally-demanding).

•H-atom orbitals

•Slater type orbitals (STO; Slater)

•Gaussian type orbitals (GTO; Boys)

STO Basis Functions

•Correct cusp behavior (finite derivative) at r  0

•Desired exponential decay at r 

•Correctly mimic the H atom orbitals

•Would be more natural choice

•No analytic method to evaluate the coulomb and XC (or exchange) integrals

GTO Basis Functions

•Wrong cusp behavior (zero slope) at r  0

•Wrong decay behavior (too rapid) at r 

•Analytic evaluation of the coulomb and XC (or exchange) integrals

(The product of the gaussian "primitives" is another gaussian.)

(not orthogonal but normalized)

  or  above

Smaller for Bigger shell (1s<2sp<3spd)

Contracted Gaussian Functions (CGF)

•The product of the gaussian "primitives" is another gaussian.

•Integrals are easily calculated. Computational advantage

•The price we pay is loss of accuracy.

•To compensate for this loss, we combine GTOs.

•By adding several GTOs, you get a good approximation of the STO.

•The more GTOs we combine, the more accurate the result.

•STO-nG (n: the number of GTOs combined to approximate the STO)

A single CGF for each AO up to valence electrons

•Double-Zeta (: STO exponent) Basis Sets (DZ)

–Inert core orbitals: with a single CGF (STO-3G, STO-6G, etc)

–Valence orbitals: with a double set of CGFs

–Pople’s 3-21G, 6-31G, etc.

•Triple-Zeta Basis Sets (TZ)

–Inert core orbitals: with a single CGF

–Valence orbitals: with a triple set of CGFs

–Pople’s 6-311G, etc.

Extended Basis Set: Polarization Function

•Functions of higher angular momentum than those occupied in the atom

•p-functions for H-He,

d-functions for Li-Ca

f-functions for transition metal elements

Extended Basis Set: Polarization Function

•The orbitals can distort and adapt better to the molecular environment.

(Example) Double-Zeta Polarization (DZP) or Split-Valence Polarization (SVP)

6-31G(d,p) = 6-31G**, 6-31G(d) = 6-31G* (Pople)

Polarization Functions. Good for Geometries

Extended Basis Set: Diffuse Function

• Core electrons and electrons engaged in bonding are tightly bound.

 Basis sets usually concentrate on the inner shell electrons.

(The tail of wave function is not really a factor in calculations.)

• In anions and in excited states, loosely bond electrons become important.

(The tail of wave function is now important.)

 We supplement with diffuse functions

(which has very small exponents to represent the tail).

• + when added to H

++ when added to others

•cc-pVTZ (triple zeta)

•cc-pVQZ (quadruple zeta)

•cc-pV5Z (quintuple zeta) (14s8p4d3f2g1h)/[6s5p4d3f2g1h]

Basis Set Sizes

Effective Core Potentials (ECP) or Pseudo-potentials

•From about the third row of the periodic table (K-)

Large number of electrons slows down the calculation.

Extra electrons are mostly core electrons.

A minimal representation will be adequate.

•Replace the core electrons with analytic functions

(added to the Fock operator) representing

the combined nuclear-electronic core to the valence electrons.

•Relativistic effect (the masses of the inner electrons of heavy atoms are

significantly greater than the electron rest mass) is taken into account by

relativistic ECP.
