ABSTRACT
The core ionization energies of second- and third-period elements of the molecules C2 H5 NO2 , SiF4 , Si(CH3 )4 , PF3 , POF3 , PSF3 , CS2 , OCS, SO2 , SO2 F2 , CH3 Cl, CFCl3 , SF5 Cl, and Cl3 PS are calculated by using Hartree-Fock (HF), and Kohn-Sham (KS) with BH&HLYP, B3LYP, and LC-BOP functionals. We used ΔSCF, Slater's transition state (STS), and two previously proposed shifted STS (1) and shifted STS (2) methods, which have been developed. The errors of ΔSCF and STS come mainly from the self-interaction errors (SIE) and can be corrected with a shifting scheme. In this study, we used the shifting parameters determined for each atom. The shifted STS (1) reproduces ΔSCF almost perfectly with mean absolute deviations (MAD) of 0.02 eV. While ΔSCF and STS vary significantly depending on the functional used, the variation of shifted STS (2) is small, and all shifted STS (2) values are close to the observed ones. The deviations of the shifted STS (2) from the experiment are 0.24 eV (BH&HLYP), 0.19 eV (B3LYP), and 0.23 eV (LC-BOP). These results further support the use of shifted STS methods for predicting the core ionization energies.
