Abstract
AbstractThe nature and local environment of Au single atoms supported and stabilized on four different oxides is studied by means of DFT + U calculations using CO as probe molecule and its stretching frequency, ωe, as a fingerprint of the site where the Au atom is bound. Four oxides are considered, anatase TiO2, tetragonal ZrO2, cubic CeO2, and a perovskite LaFeO3. In this latter case a recently reported experimental study has detected a stretching mode for CO adsorbed on Au1/LaFeO3 of 2215 cm−1, with a large blue shift, ∆ω(CO) = 72 cm−1 with respect to free CO. In order to identify the Au adsorption site that can give rise to this large blue-shift we have considered five cases: (a) Au replacing a lattice cation, (Au)subM; (b) Au replacing a lattice O anion, (Au)subO; (c) Au adsorbed on the surface, (Au)ads; (d) Au bound to an extra O atom on the surface, (AuO)ads, or (e) Au bound to two extra O atoms on the surface, (AuO2)ads. It turns out that the correct reproduction of ∆ω for CO adsorbed on positively charged gold, Auδ+, is challenging for DFT. Therefore, we have performed a comparative study of Auδ+-CO molecular compounds for which ωe(CO) is known experimentally using various kinds of DFT functionals and accurate CCSD and CCSD(T) quantum chemistry methods. Also based on this comparison we propose a tentative assignment for the observed frequency of CO adsorbed on Au1/LaFeO3 single atom catalyst.

Abstract
A short review is presented on one of the most successful theories for electronic structure calculations, the pseudopotential approximation, originally introduced by Hans G. A. Hellmann in 1934. Recent developments in relativistic quantum theory allow for the accurate adjustment of pseudopotential parameters to valence spectra, producing results for properties of atoms, molecules, and the solid-state in excellent agreement with more accurate all-electron results if a small-core definition is used. Thus the relativistic pseudopotential approximation is now the most widely applied method for systems containing heavy elements.

Abstract
We have performed density functional calculations for the structures and stabilities of Al(13)I at the scalar relativistic pseudopotential and all-electron levels of theory. The Al(13) moiety in Al(13)I is significantly distorted and structurally similar to an Al(13) cation, where the natural population is -0.27e for the I atom. Unlike other Al(13)-M (M=H, alkali metals, and coinage metals) clusters, a C(s)-ontop structure was found to be the most stable form. The Al(13)I cluster has a large Al(13)-I binding energy of 3.11 eV and is more stable, as charge transfer to the electronegative I atom is larger.

Abstract
The theoretical and technical foundations are presented for the efficient relativistic electronic structure theories to treat heavy-atomic molecular systems. This review contains two surveys of four-component and two-component quasi-relativistic approaches. First, we review our highly efficient computational scheme for four-component relativistic ab initio molecular orbital (MO) methods over generally contracted spherical harmonic Gaussian-type spinors (GTSs). Illustrative calculations, which are performed with a new four-component relativistic ab initio molecular orbital program package REL4D, clearly show the efficiency of our computational scheme by the Dirac-Hartree-Fock (DHF) and Dirac-Hartree-Fock (DKS) methods. Next, in the two-component quasi-relativistic framework, two relativistic Hamiltonians, RESC and higher order Douglas-Kroll (DK) Hamiltonians, are introduced, and several illustrative calculations are shown. Numerical results for several systems show that good accuracy can be obtained with our third-order DK (DK3) Hamiltonian.
