    Author: Zhou Y, Xie D.
    Journal: J Chem Phys; 2005 Oct 01; 123(13):134323. PubMed ID: 16223304.
    Abstract:
    We report a three-dimensional ab initio potential-energy surface for the H2-Kr complex calculated using a supermolecular method. The electronic calculations were performed at the coupled-cluster singles and doubles level with noniterative inclusion of connected triples levels with a large basis set including midbond functions and the full counterpoise correction for the basis-set superposition error. The intermolecular potential energy between the H2 molecule and the Kr atom were evaluated at five potential-optimized discrete variable representation (DVR) grid points generated from the potential-energy curve of H2. The potential for other bond lengths of H2 could be deduced using polynomial interpolations. The complex is found to have a linear preferred structure with a rather flat energy barrier. The three-dimensional DVR method and the Lanczos propagation algorithm were employed to calculate the rovibrational states without separating the inter- and intramolecular nuclear motions. In addition, the rovibrational spectra from the H2 fundamental vibrational band were calculated. The calculated shift for the band origin is -1.50 cm-1, which is in good agreement with the experimental value of -1.706 cm-1, and the calculated transition frequencies in Q1(0) and S1(0) bands are within 3% of the observed values.
