Spectroscopic Parameters of X^3∑^-, a^1△, and A^'3△ Electronic States of SO Radical

The potential energy curves (PECs) of three low-lying electronic states (X^3∑, a^1△, and a^3△) of SO radical have been studied by ab initio quantum chemical method. The calcula- tions were carried out with the full valence complete active space self-consistent field method followed by the highly acc...

Summary:The potential energy curves (PECs) of three low-lying electronic states (X^3∑, a^1△, and a^3△) of SO radical have been studied by ab initio quantum chemical method. The calcula- tions were carried out with the full valence complete active space self-consistent field method followed by the highly accurate valence internally contracted multireference configuration in- teraction (MRCI) approach in combination with correlation-consistent basis sets. Effects of the core-valence correlation and relativistic corrections on the PECs are taken into account. The core-valence correlation correction is carried out with the cc-pCVDZ basis set. The way to consider the relativistic correction is to use the second-order Douglas-Kroll Hamiltonian approximation, and the correction is performed at the level of cc-pV5Z basis set. To obtain more reliable results, the PECs determined by the MRCI calculations are also corrected for size-extensivity errors by means of the Davidson modification (MRCI+Q). These PECs are extrapolated t
