Exploration of the Core Valence Separation approximation to obtain the ionization potentials of the core electrons by the EOM-CCSD method according to a 4-component relativistic approach

Résumé

Advances in X-ray spectroscopy, both in high-energy and in resolution, now allow us to reach the ionization potentials (IP) of the core electrons of many systems [3, 5]. In quantum chemistry, these electrons must be treated using relativistic Hamiltonians (Dirac-Coulomb, Dirac- Coulomb-Gaunt), as well as for electrons belonging to molecular orbitals (MO) having a strong Spin-Orbit coupling. In addition, the Ionization Potential - Equation of motion Coupled-Cluster (IP-EOM-CCSD) method has many advantages both by the precision of the results [6] and by its explanatory and predictive nature [2]. However, its computational cost in N6 quickly makes it inapplicable.
We then explore the Core Valence Separation approximation (CVS-EOM- CCSD) [4] based on the flexible separation between core and valence MO to be taken into account in the EOM calculation. In parallel, we were interested in the Frozen Core (FC) approximation whose role is to make certain MO inactive during the preliminary Coupled-Cluster (CC) calculation. These different technics, recently implemented by our team in Dirac [1], have been applied to X- and HX systems (X : Cl, Br, I, At) and a systematic examination shows the advantage of using these different methods to obtain the IP of the core electrons.
