Hartree-Fock coupled

The first two kinds of terms are called derivative integrals, they are the derivatives of integrals that are well known in molecular structure theory, and they are easy to evaluate. Terms of the third kind pose a problem, and we have to solve a set of equations called the coupled Hartree-Fock equations in order to find them. The coupled Hartree-Fock method is far from new one of the earliest papers is that of Gerratt and Mills. 

Similar considerations apply to the electric dipole moment the derivatives of the dipole integrals can be easily obtained whilst the derivatives of the density matrix require the use of coupled Hartree-Fock theory (e.g. Gerratt and Mills, 1968). 

The fii st term is zero because I and its derivatives are orthogonal. The fourth term involves second moments and we use the coupled Hartree-Fock procedure to find the terms requiring the first derivative of the wavefunction. 

The coupled Hartree-Fock equations are then solved (Figure 17.5). 

In the older literature, the coupled Hartree-Fock part of the calculation was often ignored. Output in this case (Figure 17.6) gives the coupled and (so-called) uncoupled polarizabilities these are the Approx polarizabilities. The output is in the order oixxi zz ... 

The Hartree-Fock equations have to be solved by the coupled Hartree-Fock method. The following article affords a typical example. 

The simplest polarization propagator corresponds to choosing an HF reference and including only the h2 operator, known as the Random Phase Approximation (RPA). For the static case oj = 0) the resulting equations are identical to those obtained from a Time-Dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) analysis or Coupled Hartree-Fock approach, discussed in Section 10.5.

Besides the elementary properties of index permutational symmetry considered in eq. (7), and intrinsic point group symmetry of a given tensor accounted for in eqs. (8)-(14), much more powerful group-theoretical tools [6] can be developed to speed up coupled Hartree-Fock (CHF) calculations [7-11] of hyperpolarizabilities, which are nowadays almost routinely periformed in a number of studies dealing with non linear response of molecular systems [12-35], in particular at the self-consistent-field (SCF) level of accuracy. 

These compounds have been the subject of several theoretical [7,11,13,20)] and experimental[21] studies. Ward and Elliott [20] measured the dynamic y hyperpolarizability of butadiene and hexatriene in the vapour phase by means of the dc-SHG technique. Waite and Papadopoulos[7,ll] computed static y values, using a Mac Weeny type Coupled Hartree-Fock Perturbation Theory (CHFPT) in the CNDO approximation, and an extended basis set. Kurtz [15] evaluated by means of a finite perturbation technique at the MNDO level [17] and using the AMI [22] and PM3[23] parametrizations, the mean y values of a series of polyenes containing from 2 to 11 unit cells. At the ab initio level, Hurst et al. [13] and Chopra et al. [20] studied basis sets effects on and y. It appeared that diffuse orbitals must be included in the basis set in order to describe correctly the external part of the molecules which is the most sensitive to the electrical perturbation and to ensure the obtention of accurate values of the calculated properties.

In the self-consistent field linear response method [25,46,48] also known as random phase approximation (RPA) [49] or first order polarization propagator approximation [25,46], which is equivalent to the coupled Hartree-Fock theory [50], the reference state is approximated by the Hartree-Fock self-consistent field wavefunction < scf) and the set of operators /i j consists of single excitation and de-excitation operators with respect to orbital rotation operators [51],... 

The method of CHF-PT-EB CNDO has been used for several organometallic complexes. This method utilizes a coupled Hartree-Fock (CHF) scheme10 applied through the perturbation theory (PT) of McWeeny,11"13 and an extended basis (EB), complete neglect of differential overlap (CNDO/2) wavefunction. The exponents of the basis set are optimized with respect to experimental polarizabilities and second hyperpolarizabili-ties.14,15 A detailed description of the CNDO/2 method may be found in Ref. 16.
