项目摘要

To evaluate the molecular interaction energy by the ab initio (first principle) quantum chemical calculations, the error inherent to the basis set expansions has to be removed or to be avoided. The causes of the error are the inconsistency in the approximation for the isolated systems and for the composite system. In the molecular orbital (MO) based theory and in most of the density functional theory (DFT), the one-electron functions (orbitals) are expanded in terms of Gaussian functions. So one of causes in the inconsistency is related with the orbitals used; which can be called the Orbital Basis Inconsistency (OBI). In MO theory, the many-electron wave functions are described by a superposition of electron configurations, or by a linear combination of Slater determinants. Thus, the second cause of the inconsistency is Configuration Basis Inconsistency (CBI). Using the locally projected molecular orbital (LPMO), the 3rd order single excitation perturbation (3rdSPT) and the 2nd order double excitation perturbation theory (2ndDPT) are developed. The theory can avoid the OBI by determining the MO under the local condition and the CBI by restricting the electron configurations in the perturbation theory. The method is tested for many molecular clusters using various basis sets, and the calculated binding energies are compared with the published reference energies. The developed code is sufficiently efficient to study a large water clusters such as (H_2O)_25 with 3rdSPT/aug-cc-pVDZ and (H_2O)_6 with 3rdSPT+2ndDPT/aug-cc-pVTZ.

为了通过从头算（第一个原理）量子化学计算来评估分子相互作用能，必须删除或避免基础集膨胀的误差。误差的原因是隔离系统和复合系统的近似值不一致。在基于分子轨道（MO）的理论和大多数密度函数理论（DFT）中，单电子函数（轨道）是根据高斯函数扩展的。因此，不一致的原因之一与所使用的轨道有关。可以称为轨道基础不一致（OBI）。在MO理论中，多电子波函数是通过电子构型的叠加来描述的，或者通过Slater决定因素的线性组合来描述。因此，不一致的第二个原因是配置基础不一致（CBI）。使用局部投影的分子轨道（LPMO），开发了第三阶单个激发扰动（3RDSPT）和第二阶双重激发扰动理论（2NDDPT）。该理论可以通过在局部条件下确定MO来避免OBI，并通过限制扰动理论中的电子构型来避免OBI。该方法使用各种基集测试了许多分子簇，并将计算出的结合能与已发布的参考能进行比较。开发的代码足够有效地研究了具有3rdspt/aug-cc-pvdz的（H_2O）_25和（H_2O）_6的大型水簇，并使用3rdspt+2ndddpt/aug-cc-pvtz。
