Multilevel CC2 and CCSD in Reduced Orbital Spaces: Electronic Excitations in Large Molecular Systems.

ABSTRACT: We present efficient implementations of the multilevel CC2 (MLCC2) and multilevel CCSD (MLCCSD) models. As the system size increases, MLCC2 and MLCCSD exhibit the scaling of the lower-level coupled cluster model. To treat large systems, we combine MLCC2 and MLCCSD with a reduced-space approach in which the multilevel coupled cluster calculation is performed in a significantly truncated molecular orbital basis. The truncation scheme is based on the selection of an active region of the molecular system and the subsequent construction of localized Hartree-Fock orbitals. These orbitals are used in the multilevel coupled cluster calculation. The electron repulsion integrals are Cholesky decomposed using a screening protocol that guarantees accuracy in the truncated molecular orbital basis and reduces computational cost. The Cholesky factors are constructed directly in the truncated basis, ensuring low storage requirements. Systems for which Hartree-Fock is too expensive can be treated by using a multilevel Hartree-Fock reference. With the reduced-space approach, we can handle systems with more than a thousand atoms. This is demonstrated for paranitroaniline in aqueous solution.

Constructing Molecular ?-Orbital Active Spaces for Multireference Calculations of Conjugated Systems.

Project description:Molecules with conjugated ? systems often feature strong electron correlation and therefore require multireference methods for a reliable computational description. A key prerequisite for the successful application of such methods is the choice of a suitable active space. Herein the automated ?-orbital space (PiOS) method for selecting active spaces for multireference calculations of conjugated ? systems is presented. This approach allows the construction of small but effective active spaces based on Hückel theory. To demonstrate its performance, ? ? ?* excitations for benzene, octatetraene, and free-base porphine are computed. In addition, this technique can be combined with the automated atomic valence active space method to compute excitations in complex systems with multiple conjugated fragments. This combined approach was used to generate two-dimensional potential energy surfaces for multiple electronic states associated with photoinduced electron-coupled double proton transfer in the blue-light-using flavin photoreceptor protein. These types of methods for the automated selection of active space orbitals are important for ensuring consistency and reproducibility of multireference approaches for a wide range of chemical and biological systems.

Accurate Reduced-Cost CCSD(T) Energies: Parallel Implementation, Benchmarks, and Large-Scale Applications.

Project description:The accurate and systematically improvable frozen natural orbital (FNO) and natural auxiliary function (NAF) cost-reducing approaches are combined with our recent coupled-cluster singles, doubles, and perturbative triples [CCSD(T)] implementations. Both of the closed- and open-shell FNO-CCSD(T) codes benefit from OpenMP parallelism, completely or partially integral-direct density-fitting algorithms, checkpointing, and hand-optimized, memory- and operation count effective implementations exploiting all permutational symmetries. The closed-shell CCSD(T) code requires negligible disk I/O and network bandwidth, is MPI/OpenMP parallel, and exhibits outstanding peak performance utilization of 50-70% up to hundreds of cores. Conservative FNO and NAF truncation thresholds benchmarked for challenging reaction, atomization, and ionization energies of both closed- and open-shell species are shown to maintain 1 kJ/mol accuracy against canonical CCSD(T) for systems of 31-43 atoms even with large basis sets. The cost reduction of up to an order of magnitude achieved extends the reach of FNO-CCSD(T) to systems of 50-75 atoms (up to 2124 atomic orbitals) with triple- and quadruple-ζ basis sets, which is unprecedented without local approximations. Consequently, a considerably larger portion of the chemical compound space can now be covered by the practically "gold standard" quality FNO-CCSD(T) method using affordable resources and about a week of wall time. Large-scale applications are presented for organocatalytic and transition-metal reactions as well as noncovalent interactions. Possible applications for benchmarking local CCSD(T) methods, as well as for the accuracy assessment or parametrization of less complete models, for example, density functional approximations or machine learning potentials, are also outlined.

Single, Double Electronic Excitations and Exciton Effective Conjugation Lengths in π-Conjugated Systems.

Project description:The 21Ag and 11Bu excited states of two prototypical π-conjugated compounds, polyacetylene and polydiacetylene, are investigated with the recently developed particle-particle random phase approximation (pp-RPA) method combined with the B3LYP functional. The polymer-limit transition energies are estimated as 1.38 and 1.72 eV for the 21Ag and 11Bu states, respectively, from an extrapolation of the computed excitation energies of model oligomers. These values increase to 1.95 and 2.24 eV for the same transitions when ground-state structures with ∼33% larger bond length alternation are adopted. Applying the pp-RPA to the vertical excitation energies in oligodiacetylene, the polymer-limit transition energies of the 21Ag and 11Bu states are computed to be 2.06 and 2.28 eV, respectively. These results are in good agreement with experimental values or theoretical best estimates, indicating that the pp-RPA method shows great promise for understanding many photophysical phenomena involving both single and double excitations.

Equation-of-Motion MLCCSD and CCSD-in-HF Oscillator Strengths and Their Application to Core Excitations.

Project description:We present an implementation of equation-of-motion oscillator strengths for the multilevel CCSD (MLCCSD) model where CCS is used as the lower level method (CCS/CCSD). In this model, the double excitations of the cluster operator are restricted to an active orbital space, whereas the single excitations are unrestricted. Calculated nitrogen K-edge spectra of adenosine, adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and an ATP-water system are used to demonstrate the performance of the model. Projected atomic orbitals (PAOs) are used to partition the virtual space into active and inactive orbital sets. Cholesky decomposition of the Hartree-Fock density is used to partition the occupied orbitals. This Cholesky-PAO partitioning is cheap, scaling as O(N3), and is suitable for the calculation of core excitations, which are localized in character. By restricting the single excitations of the cluster operator to the active space, as well as the double excitations, the CCSD-in-HF model is obtained. A comparison of the two models-MLCCSD and CCSD-in-HF-is presented for the core excitation spectra of the adenosine and ATP systems.

Transfer of orbital angular momentum of light to plasmonic excitations in metamaterials.

Project description:The emergence of the vortex beam with orbital angular momentum (OAM) has provided intriguing possibilities to induce optical transitions beyond the framework of the electric dipole interaction. The uniqueness stems from the OAM transfer from light to material, as demonstrated in electronic transitions in atomic systems. In this study, we report on the OAM transfer to electrons in solid-state systems, which has been elusive to date. Using metamaterials (periodically textured metallic disks), we show that multipolar modes of the surface electromagnetic excitations (so-called spoof localized surface plasmons) are selectively induced by the terahertz vortex beam. Our results reveal selection rules governed by the conservation of the total angular momentum, which is confirmed by numerical simulations. The efficient transfer of light's OAM to elementary excitations in solid-state systems at room temperature opens up new possibilities of OAM manipulation.

Orbital-free photophysical descriptors to predict directional excitations in metal-based photosensitizers.

Project description:The development of dye-sensitized solar cells, metalloenzyme photocatalysis or biological labeling heavily relies on the design of metal-based photosensitizes with directional excitations. Directionality is most often predicted by characterizing the excitations manually via canonical frontier orbitals. Although widespread, this traditional approach is, at the very least, cumbersome and subject to personal bias, as well as limited in many cases. Here, we demonstrate how two orbital-free photophysical descriptors allow an easy and straightforward quantification of the degree of directionality in electron excitations using chemical fragments. As proof of concept we scrutinize the effect of 22 chemical modifications on the archetype [Ru(bpy)3]2+ with a new descriptor coined "substituent-induced exciton localization" (SIEL), together with the concept of "excited-electron delocalization length" (EEDL n ). Applied to quantum ensembles of initially excited singlet and the relaxed triplet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer states, the SIEL descriptor allows quantifying how much and whereto the exciton is promoted, as well as anticipating the effect of single modifications, e.g. on C-4 atoms of bpy units of [Ru(bpy)3]2+. The general applicability of SIEL and EEDL n is further established by rationalizing experimental trends through quantification of the directionality of the photoexcitation. We thus demonstrate that SIEL and EEDL descriptors can be synergistically employed to design improved photosensitizers with highly directional and localized electron-transfer transitions.

Orbital-hybridization-created optical excitations in Li<sub>2</sub>GeO<sub>3</sub>.

Project description:The three-dimensional ternary Li2GeO3 compound presents various unusual essential properties. The main features are thoroughly explored from the first-principles calculations. The concise pictures, the critical orbital hybridizations in Li-O and Ge-O bonds, are clearly examined through the optimal geometric structure, the atom-dominated electronic energy spectrum, the spatial charge densities, the atom and orbital-decomposed van Hove singularities, and the strong optical responses. The unusual optical transitions cover the red-shift optical gap, various frequency-dependent absorption structures and the most prominent plasmon mode in terms of the dielectric functions, energy loss functions, reflectance spectra, and absorption coefficients. Optical excitations, depending on the directions of electric polarization, are strongly affected by excitonic effects. The close combinations of electronic and optical properties can identify a significant orbital hybridization for each available excitation channel. The developed theoretical framework will be very useful in fully understanding the diverse phenomena of other emergent materials.

Comparison of Large Chemical Spaces.

Project description:Chemical libraries are commonplace in computer-aided drug discovery, and assessing their overlap/complementarity is a routine task. For this purpose, different techniques are applied, ranging from exact matching to comparing physicochemical properties. However, these techniques are applicable only if the compound sets are not too big. Particularly for chemical spaces, containing billions of compounds, alternative ways of assessment are required. Random subsets could be enumerated and compared one-to-one, but given the vast sizes of the chemical spaces assessed here, such samples can at best provide a rough estimate of any overlap. Here we describe a novel way to compare chemical spaces utilizing a panel of query compounds. We applied this technique to three different types of spaces and obtained insight into their structural overlap, their coverage of the chemical universe, and their density. As chemical feasibility of virtual compounds is particularly important, we included related in silico predictions in our assessment.

The nature of non-phononic excitations in disordered systems.

Project description:The frequency scaling exponent of low-frequency excitations in microscopically small glasses, which do not allow for the existence of waves (phonons), has been in the focus of the recent literature. The density of states g(ω) of these modes obeys an ωs scaling, where the exponent s, ranging between 2 and 5, depends on the quenching protocol. The orgin of these findings remains controversal. Here we show, using heterogeneous-elasticity theory, that in a marginally-stable glass sample g(ω) follows a Debye-like scaling (s = 2), and the associated excitations (type-I) are of random-matrix type. Further, using a generalisation of the theory, we demonstrate that in more stable samples, other, (type-II) excitations prevail, which are non-irrotational oscillations, associated with local frozen-in stresses. The corresponding frequency scaling exponent s is governed by the statistics of small values of the stresses and, therefore, depends on the details of the interaction potential.

Vibrational Excitations and Low Energy Electronic Structure of Epoxide-decorated Graphene.

Project description:We report infrared studies of adsorbed atomic oxygen (epoxide functional groups) on graphene. Two different systems are used as a platform to explore these interactions, namely, epitaxial graphene/SiC(0001) functionalized with atomic oxygen (graphene epoxide, GE) and chemically reduced graphene oxide (RGO). In the case of the model GE system, IR reflectivity measurements show that epoxide groups distort the graphene π bands around the K-point, imparting a finite effective mass and contributing to a band gap. In the case of RGO, epoxide groups are found to be present following the reduction treatment by a combination of polarized IR reflectance and transmittance measurements. Similar to the GE system, a band gap in the RGO sample is observed as well.
