An Efficient Algorithm for Constrained CASSCF(1,2) and CASSCF(3,2) Simulations as Relevant to Electron and Hole Transfer Problems
We propose an efficient algorithm for the recently published electron/hole-transfer Dynamical-weighted State-averaged Constrained CASSCF (eDSC/hDSC) method studying charge transfer states and D1-D0 crossings for systems with odd numbers of electrons. By separating the constrained minimization problem into an unconstrained self-consistent-field (SCF) problem and a constrained nonself-consistent-field (nSCF) problem, as well as accelerating the direct inversion in the iterative subspace (DIIS) technique to solve the SCF problem, the overall computational cost is reduced by a factor of 8–20 compared with directly using sequential quadratic programming (SQP). This approach should be applicable for other constrained minimization problems, and in the immediate future, once gradients are available, the present eDSC/hDSC algorithm should allow for speedy nonadiabatic dynamics simulations.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation invites new and original contributions with the understanding that, if accepted, they will not be published elsewhere. Papers reporting new theories, methodology, and/or important applications in quantum electronic structure, molecular dynamics, and statistical mechanics are appropriate for submission to this Journal. Specific topics include advances in or applications of ab initio quantum mechanics, density functional theory, design and properties of new materials, surface science, Monte Carlo simulations, solvation models, QM/MM calculations, biomolecular structure prediction, and molecular dynamics in the broadest sense including gas-phase dynamics, ab initio dynamics, biomolecular dynamics, and protein folding. The Journal does not consider papers that are straightforward applications of known methods including DFT and molecular dynamics. The Journal favors submissions that include advances in theory or methodology with applications to compelling problems.
