[Studies on the Analytical Potential Energies for Partial Electronic States of Li(2) with Variational Algebraic Energy Consistent Method].

The full vibrational spectra especially those high-lying vibrational energies in the dissociation region of four specific electronic states 1(3)Δ(g), 33Σ(+)(g), 1(3)Σ-(g) and b(3)Π(u) have been obtained by using the improved variational algebraic method (VAM). The analytical potential energy functions (APEFs) of these electronic states are also determined with corresponding adjustable parameter λ by using the variational algebraic energy consistent method (VAECM) based on the VAM vibrational spectra. The full vibrational energies, vibrational spectroscopic constants, force constants f(n), and expansion coefficients a(n) of the VAECM potential are also tabulated for each electronic state in this study. The results show that the VAECM analytical potentials are superior to some other widely used analytical ones, and do not have the unphysical tiny barriers existing in the precious AECM potentials.

A method for predicting the molar heat capacities of HBr and HCl gases based on the full set of molecular rovibrational energies.

A new method is presented for one to obtain the molar heat capacities of diatomic macroscopic gas with a full set of microscopic molecular rovibrational energies. Based on an accurate experimental vibrational energies subset of a diatomic electronic ground state, the full vibrational energies can be obtained by using the variational algebraic method (VAM), the potential energy curves (PECs) will be constructed by the Rydberg-Klein-Rees (RKR) method, the full set of rovibrational energies will be calculated by the LEVEL program, and then the partition functions and the molar heat capacities of macroscopic gas can be calculated with the help of the quantum statistical ensemble theory. Applying the method to the ground state HBr and HCl gases, it is found that the relative errors of the partition functions calculated in the temperature range of 300 âˆ¼ 6000 K are in excellent agreement with those obtained from TIPS database, and the calculated molar heat capacities are closer to the experimental values than those calculated by other methods without considering the energy levels of highly excited quantum states. The present method provides an effective new way for one to obtain the full set of molecular rovibrational energies and the molar heat capacities of macroscopic gas through the microscopic spectral information of a diatomic system.

Investigations of the temperature-dependent electron paramagnetic resonance spectra and local structures for a cobalt(II) porphyrin complex within a metal-organic framework.

The interaction between an adsorbed CO molecule and the unsaturated coordinated Co2+ center in the metal-organic framework (MOF) PCN-224 is investigated by analyzing the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) parameters (g factors and hyperfine structure constants) and the adsorption energies at various temperatures. Six- and five-coordinated octahedral models (four planar N with two and one axial CO molecules, respectively) are constructed to simulate the local structures of the Co2+ centers at different temperatures. Because of the Jahn-Teller effect of the Co2+ centers, the C2-Co-N4 and C-Co-N4 combinations undergo different tetragonal elongation distortions along the C4 axis, characterized by the relative elongation ΔZ and displacement ΔZ' of Co2+ at different temperatures. Given the agreement between the calculated and experimental EPR parameters, as well as the adsorption properties, the six- and five-coordinated models are regarded as suitable for low- and high-temperature systems, respectively. These studies may be helpful to understand the properties of similar MOFs with adsorbed molecules under the effect of ambient temperature.
