Challenge Solution

|YLGVV(1) is not orthogonal to the

other 1st order GVVPT2 wave functions.

Replace |YLGVV(1) by |YL

GVV(2) when deriving an expression for the nonadiabatic coupling terms. Once the expression is obtained eliminate all the 3rd and 4th order terms.

• Geometry optimizations, gradients calculations, and frequency calculations verify that the GVVPT2 method accurately describes the chemically important regions of most potential energy surfaces.

Conclusions

28

• The GVVPT2 gradients are continuous across potential energy surfaces, including regions of avoided crossings.

• Analytic formulas for GVVPT2 electric dipole moments, molecular gradients, and nonadiabatic coupling terms have been developed which scale at approximately 2-3 times the speed of the GVVPT2 energy.

• Computational implementation of GVVPT2 electric dipole moments and analytic gradients show excellent agreement with finite difference calculations.

• MRCISD and GVVPT2 predictions for the minimum energy geometries along the conical intersection seam between the first two 1A1 states of O3 are in close agreement with one another.

• Photodissociation studies of N2O2 suggested the existence of “dark states”, that undergo nonadiabatic transitions.

Interpretation and Conclusions

38

• GVVPT2 is capable of generating accurate potential energy surfaces of the NO + NO dissociation limits of N2O2.

• From those calculations several areas of potentially strong nonadiabatic coupling were identified.

• Many of those states have B2 symmetry and involve a excitation energy of 5 – 6 eV. These results are consistent with photofragment measurements which predict that the 244 – 190 nm UV bands involve B2 electronic states.
