Quantum Monte Carlo Study of π-Bonded Transition Metal Organometallics: Neutral and Cationic Vanadium–Benzene and Cobalt–Benzene Half Sandwiches

Journal Article Horváthová, L. ; Dubecký, M. ; Mitas, L. ; ... - Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation

We present accurate quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) calculations that enabled us to determine the structure, spin multiplicity, ionization energy, dissociation energy, and spin-dependent electronic gaps of neutral and positively charged vanadium–benzene and cobalt–benzene systems. From total/ionization energy, we deduce a sextet (quintet) state of neutral (cationic) vanadium–benzene systems and quartet (triplet) state of the neutral (cationic) cobalt–benzene systems. Vastly different energy gaps for the two spin channels are predicted for the vanadium–benzene system and broadly similar energy gaps for the cobalt–benzene system. For this purpose, we have used a multistage combination of techniques with consecutive elimination of systematic biases exceptmore »« less

Charged vanadium-benzene multidecker clusters: DFT and quantum Monte Carlo study

Journal Article Tokár, K. ; Derian, R. ; Mitas, L. ; ... - Journal of Chemical Physics

Using explicitly correlated fixed-node quantum Monte Carlo and density functional theory (DFT) methods, we study electronic properties, ground-state multiplets, ionization potentials, electron affinities, and low-energy fragmentation channels of charged half-sandwich and multidecker vanadium-benzene systems with up to 3 vanadium atoms, including both anions and cations. It is shown that, particularly in anions, electronic correlations play a crucial role; these effects are not systematically captured with any commonly used DFT functionals such as gradient corrected, hybrids, and range-separated hybrids. On the other hand, tightly bound cations can be described qualitatively by DFT. A comparison of DFT and quantum Monte Carlo providesmore »« less

Molecular hydrogen adsorbed on benzene: Insights from a quantum Monte Carlo study

Journal Article Beaudet, Todd D. ; Casula, Michele ; Kim, Jeongnim ; ... - Journal of Chemical Physics

We present a quantum Monte Carlo study of the hydrogen-benzene system where binding is very weak. We demonstrate that the binding is well described at both variational Monte Carlo (VMC) and diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) levels by a Jastrow correlated single determinant geminal wave function with an optimized compact basis set that includes diffuse orbitals. Agreement between VMC and fixed-node DMC binding energies is found to be within 0.18mhartree, suggesting that the calculations are well converged with respect to the basis. Essentially the same binding is also found in independent DMC calculations using a different trial wave function of amore »« less

Electronic properties of doped and defective NiO: A quantum Monte Carlo study

Journal Article Shin, Hyeondeok ; Luo, Ye ; Ganesh, Panchapakesan ; ... - Physical Review Materials

NiO is a canonical Mott (or charge-transfer) insulator and, as such, is notoriously difficult to describe using density functional theory (DFT)–based electronic structure methods. Doped Mott insulators such as NiO are of interest for various applications but rigorous theoretical descriptions are lacking. Here, we use quantum Monte Carlo methods, which very accurately include electron-electron interactions, to examine energetics, charge structures, and spin structures of NiO with various point defects, such as vacancies and substitutional doping with potassium. The formation energy of a potassium dopant is significantly lower than that of a Ni vacancy, making potassium an attractive monovalent dopant formore »« less
