Title: | Abinitio spectroscopy and thermochemistry of the bn molecule | Authors: | MARTIN, Jan FRANCOIS, Jean-Pierre GIJBELS, R |
Issue Date: | 1991 | Publisher: | SPRINGER VERLAG | Source: | ZEITSCHRIFT FUR PHYSIK D-ATOMS MOLECULES AND CLUSTERS, 21(1). p. 47-55 | Abstract: | The lowest 1-SIGMA+ and 3-PI states of the BN molecule have been studied using the quadratic configuration interaction method and (spdf) basis sets. The lowest 1-SIGMA+ and 3-PI states lie extremely closely (T(e) almost-equal-to 100 cm-1) together; it is not clear which is the ground state. The very small separation should form a useful benchmark for basis sets and electron correlation methods. The dissociation energy D0 is computed to be 103.9 +/- 2 kcal/mol. A self-consistent set of spectroscopic constants is derived from a combination of ab initio and experimental data. JANAF-style thermodynamic functions in the range 100-6000 K, including anharmonic, rovibrational coupling, centrifugal stretching, and spin-orbit coupling effects are computed using direct numerical summation over the 25 lowest electronic states. A modified procedure for the latter is outlined that reduces computer time by one or two orders of magnitude without compromise in accuracy. | Notes: | UNIV INSTELLING ANTWERP,INST MAT SCI,DEPT CHEM,B-2610 WILRIJK,BELGIUM.MARTIN, JML, LIMBURGS UNIV CENTRUM,DEPT SBM,UNIV CAMPUS,B-3590 DIEPENBEEK,BELGIUM. | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/3952 | DOI: | 10.1007/BF01426617 | ISI #: | A1991GA17200008 | Type: | Journal Contribution |
