To calculate the matrix elements for H2 in the minimal basis set, we approximate the Slater Is orbital with a Gaussian function. That is, we replace the Is radial wave function... 

In Chapter IX, Liang et al. present an approach, termed as the crude Bom-Oppenheimer approximation, which is based on the Born-Oppen-heimer approximation but employs the straightforward perturbation method. Within their chapter they develop this approximation to become a practical method for computing potential energy surfaces. They show that to carry out different orders of perturbation, the ability to calculate the matrix elements of the derivatives of the Coulomb interaction with respect to nuclear coordinates is essential. For this purpose, they study a diatomic molecule, and by doing that demonstrate the basic skill to compute the relevant matrix elements for the Gaussian basis sets. Finally, they apply this approach to the H2 molecule and show that the calculated equilibrium position and foree constant fit reasonable well those obtained by other approaches. 

By replacing the superscripts a and (i by Pand tx, respectively, in th e above th ree eq u ation s. you can easily get three similar equations for the Fock matrix elements for beta orbitals. Similar expressions to the above for Fock matrix elements ol restricted Ilartree-Fock (RIIF) calculations can be generated by simply icplaeing 1- (or I P) by 1/2 P in the above equation s.

In order to adapt that expression to the problem at hand, we note that interaction matrix elements for shaking and breathing modes are different. Namely, the matrix element AfiV, symmetry index (A or E), is very small for even I + I, while the cosine matrix element, M - = is minor for odd I + I [Wurger 1989]. At low temperatures, when only / = / is accessible, the shaking... 

In the lowest optieally excited state of the molecule, we have one eleetron (ti ) and one hole (/i ), each with spin 1/2 which couple through the Coulomb interaetion and can either form a singlet 5 state (5 = 0), or a triplet T state (S = 1). Since the electric dipole matrix element for optical transitions — ep A)/(me) does not depend on spin, there is a strong spin seleetion rule (AS = 0) for optical electric dipole transitions. This strong spin seleetion rule arises from the very weak spin-orbit interaction for carbon. Thus, to turn on electric dipole transitions, appropriate odd-parity vibrational modes must be admixed with the initial and (or) final electronic states, so that the w eak absorption below 2.5 eV involves optical transitions between appropriate vibronic levels. These vibronic levels are energetically favored by virtue... 

Theoretical calculations were performed with the linear muffin tin orbital (LMTO) method and the local density approximation for exchange and correlation. This method was used in combination with supercell models containing up to 16 atoms to calculate the DOS. The LMTO calculations are run self consistently and the DOS obtained are combined with the matrix elements for the transitions from initial to final states as described in detail elsewhere (Botton et al., 1996a) according to the method described by Vvedensky (1992). A comparison is also made between spectra calculated for some of the B2 compounds using the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker (KKR) method. 

The two Ti curves do not covary in the quasigap. If the bonding was only between different atoms then the curves should covary. This indicates bonding between similar atoms. As noted above, the dd interatomic matrix elements for the Tii-Tii interaction are about 80 % larger than that in A3, supporting the idea of direct dd bonding.
