Equivalence of the Wei potential model and Tietz potential model for diatomic molecules

Diabatic Valence-Hole Concept

A global diabatization scheme, based on the "valence-hole" concept, has been previously applied to model webs of avoided crossings that exist in four electronic-state symmetry manifolds of C2 (1Πg, 3Πg, 1Σu+, and 3Σu+). Here, this model is extended to the electronically excited states of four more molecules: CN (2Σ+), N2 (3Πu), SiC (3Π), and Si2 (3Πg). Many strangenesses in the spectroscopic observations (e.g., energy level structure, predissociation linewidths, and radiative lifetimes) for all four electronic state systems discussed here are accounted for by this unified model. The key concept of the model is valence-hole electron configurations: 3σ24σ11π45σ2 in CN (2Σ+), 2σg22σu11πu43σg21πg1 in N2 (3Πu), 5σ26σ17σ22π3 in SiC (3Π), and 4σg24σu15σg22πu3 in Si2 (3Πg), all of which have a triply occupied "valence-core" (i.e., 2σg22σu1 or the equivalent). These valence-hole configurations have a nominal bond order of three or higher and correlate with high-energy separated-atom limits with an np ← ns (n = 2, 3) promotion in one of the atomic constituents. On its way to dissociation, the strongly bound diabatic valence-hole state crosses multiple weakly bound or repulsive states, which belong to electron configurations with a completely filled valence-core. These curve crossings between diabatic potentials result in a network of many avoided crossings among multiple electronic states, analogous to the well-studied electronic structure landscape of ionic-covalent crossings in strongly ionic molecules. Considering the unique role of valence-hole states in shaping the global electronic structure, the valence-hole concept should be added to our intuitive framework of chemical bonding.

Non-relativistic energy equations for diatomic molecules constrained in a deformed hyperbolic potential function

CONTEXT

In this paper, the approximate analytical energy equations for the deformed hyperbolic potential have been obtained for arbitrary parameters of the potential. The potential function was transformed to a molecular potential by subjecting it to the Varshni conditions which allows for the determination of the energy levels of diatomic molecules. The molecular vibrational energy spectra for [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] diatomic molecules were obtained and found to match with the results obtained with another analytical approach, potential functions, and experimental data. The noticeable slight differences in the approximate energy spectra obtained in this work and existing literature may be ascribed to the analytical method, computational approach, and the accuracy of the molecular potential functions. The obtained energy equations were used to determine the energy of a particle for arbitrary parameters of the potential function. The obtained energy is bounded and increases with the increase in the quantum numbers. The results conformed to the ones obtained via the path integral approach and numerical solutions obtained via the MATHEMATICA program.

METHOD

The energy spectra equations were obtained via the Nikiforov-Uvarov approach and semi-classical WKB approximation. The Pekeris approximation has been applied to resolve the difficulty in solving the complete energy spectrum of the non-relativistic wave equation for the potential function. The numerical data of the energy spectra was obtained using the MATHEMATICA program.

Bound-state energy spectrum and thermochemical functions of the deformed Schiöberg oscillator

In this study, a diatomic molecule interacting potential such as the deformed Schiöberg oscillator (DSO) have been applied to diatomic systems. By solving the Schrödinger equation with the DSO, analytical equations for energy eigenvalues, molar entropy, molar enthalpy, molar Gibbs free energy and constant pressure molar heat capacity are obtained. The obtained equations were used to analyze the physical properties of diatomic molecules. With the aid of the DSO, the percentage average absolute deviation (PAAD) of computed data from the experimental data of the 7Li2 (2 3Πg), NaBr (X 1Σ+), KBr (X 1Σ+) and KRb (B 1Π) molecules are 1.3319%, 0.2108%, 0.2359% and 0.8841%, respectively. The PAAD values obtained by employing the equations of molar entropy, scaled molar enthalpy, scaled molar Gibbs free energy and isobaric molar heat capacity are 1.2919%, 1.5639%, 1.5957% and 2.4041%, respectively, from the experimental data of the KBr (X 1Σ+) molecule. The results for the potential energies, bound-state energy spectra, and thermodynamic functions are in good agreement with the literature on diatomic molecules.

Energy eigenvalues and finite-temperature magnetization for the improved Scarf II potential in the presence of external magnetic and Aharonov-Bohm flux fields

In this paper, the bound state solutions of the radial Schrödinger equation are obtained in closed form under an improved Scarf II potential energy function (ISPEF) constrained by external magnetic and Aharonov-Bohm (AB) flux fields. By constructing a suitable Pekeris-like approximation scheme for the centrifugal barrier, approximate analytical expressions for the bound-states and thermal partition function were obtained. With the aid of the partition function, an explicit equation for magnetization at finite temperatures is developed. The obtained equations were then applied to calculate the energy levels and magnetic properties of 7Li2 (2 3Πg), K2 (X 1Σg+), Mg2 (X 1Σg+) and NaBr (X 1Σ+) diatomic molecules. The obtained numerical results of the vibrational energies for these molecules were found to be in good agreement with theoretic and experimental values reported in the existing literature. The results indicated that by turning off the magnetic and AB fields, the energy levels of the diatomic molecules degenerate. The results further revealed that an increase in the temperature of the molecules and the AB field strengths leads to a linear decrease in magnetization.

A precise estimation for vibrational energies of diatomic molecules using the improved Rosen-Morse potential

In the context of the generalized fractional derivative, novel solutions to the D-dimensional Schrödinger equation are investigated via the improved Rosen-Morse potential (IRMP). By applying the Pekeris-type approximation to the centrifugal term, the generalized fractional Nikiforov-Uvarov method has been used to derive the analytical formulations of the energy eigenvalues and wave functions in terms of the fractional parameters in D-dimensions. The resulting solutions are employed for a variety of diatomic molecules (DMs), which have numerous uses in many fields of physics. With the use of molecular parameters, the IRMP is utilized to reproduce potential energy curves for numerous DMs. The pure vibrational energy spectra for several DMs are determined using both the fractional and the ordinary forms to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method utilized in this work. As compared to earlier investigations, it has been found that our estimated vibrational energies correspond with the observed Rydberg-Klein-Rees (RKR) data much more closely. Moreover, it is observed that the vibrational energy spectra of different DMs computed in the existence of fractional parameters are superior to those computed in the ordinary case for fitting the observed RKR data. Thus, it may be inferred that fractional order significantly affects the vibrational energy levels of DMs. Both the mean absolute percentage deviation (MAPD) and average absolute deviation (AAD) are evaluated as the goodness of fit indicators. According to the estimated AAD and MAPD outcomes, the IRMP is an appropriate model for simulating the RKR data for all of the DMs under investigation.

Parabolic-Gaussian Double Quantum Wells under a Nonresonant Intense Laser Field

In this paper, we investigate the electronic and optical properties of an electron in both symmetric and asymmetric double quantum wells that consist of a harmonic potential with an internal Gaussian barrier under a nonresonant intense laser field. The electronic structure was obtained by using the two-dimensional diagonalization method. To calculate the linear and nonlinear absorption, and refractive index coefficients, a combination of the standard density matrix formalism and the perturbation expansion method was used. The obtained results show that the electronic and thereby optical properties of the considered parabolic-Gaussian double quantum wells could be adjusted to obtain a suitable response to specific aims with parameter alterations such as well and barrier width, well depth, barrier height, and interwell coupling, in addition to the applied nonresonant intense laser field.

Harmonic-Gaussian Symmetric and Asymmetric Double Quantum Wells: Magnetic Field Effects

In this study, we considered the linear and non-linear optical properties of an electron in both symmetrical and asymmetrical double quantum wells, which consist of the sum of an internal Gaussian barrier and a harmonic potential under an applied magnetic field. Calculations are in the effective mass and parabolic band approximations. We have used the diagonalization method to find eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the electron confined within the symmetric and asymmetric double well formed by the sum of a parabolic and Gaussian potential. A two-level approach is used in the density matrix expansion to calculate the linear and third-order non-linear optical absorption and refractive index coefficients. The potential model proposed in this study is useful for simulating and manipulating the optical and electronic properties of symmetric and asymmetric double quantum heterostructures, such as double quantum wells and double quantum dots, with controllable coupling and subjected to externally applied magnetic fields.

Effects of Applied Magnetic Field on the Optical Properties and Binding Energies Spherical GaAs Quantum Dot with Donor Impurity

The screened modified Kratzer potential (SMKP) model is utilized to scrutinize the impacts of an applied magnetic field (MF) on the binding energies and linear and nonlinear optical properties spherical GaAs quantum dot with donor impurity (DI). To accomplish this goal, we have used the diagonalization method to numerically solve the Schrödinger equation under the effective mass approximation for obtaining the electron energy levels and related electronic wave functions. The expressions used for evaluating linear, third-order nonlinear, and total optical absorption coefficients and relative refractive index changes were previously derived within the compact density matrix method. It has been shown here that the MF and DI impacts the characteristics of the absorption coefficients and the refractive index changes. This study's results will find application in optoelectronics and related areas.

Diabatic Valence-Hole States in the C2 Molecule: "Putting Humpty Dumpty Together Again"

Despite the long history of spectroscopic studies of the C₂ molecule, fundamental questions about its chemical bonding are still being hotly debated. The complex electronic structure of C₂ is a consequence of its dense manifold of near-degenerate, low-lying electronic states. A global multi-state diabatic model is proposed here to disentangle the numerous configuration interactions that occur within four symmetry manifolds of excited states of C₂ (¹Π_g, ³Π_g, ¹Σ_u⁺ , and ³Σ_u⁺ ). The key concept of our model is the existence of two "valence-hole" configurations, 2σg22σu11πu33σg2 for ^1,3Π_g states and 2σg22σu11πu43σg1 for ^1,3Σ_u⁺ states, that are derived from 3σ_g ← 2σ_u electron promotion. The lowest-energy state from each of the four C₂ symmetry species is dominated by this type of valence-hole configuration at its equilibrium internuclear separation. As a result of their large binding energy (nominal bond order of 3) and correlation with the 2s²2p² + 2s2p³ separated-atom configurations, the presence of these valence-hole configurations has a profound impact on the global electronic structure and unimolecular dynamics of C₂.

Vibrational energies of some diatomic molecules for a modified and deformed potential

A molecular potential model is proposed and the solutions of the radial Schrӧdinger equation in the presence of the proposed potential is obtained. The energy equation and its corresponding radial wave function are calculated using the powerful parametric Nikiforov–Uvarov method. The energies of cesium dimer for different quantum states were numerically obtained for both negative and positive values of the deformed and adjustable parameters. The results for sodium dimer and lithium dimer were calculated numerically using their respective spectroscopic parameters. The calculated values for the three molecules are in excellent agreement with the observed values. Finally, we calculated different expectation values and examined the effects of the deformed and adjustable parameters on the expectation values.

Analyzing the Effects of Topological Defect (TD) on the Energy Spectra and Thermal Properties of LiH, TiC and I2 Diatomic Molecules

In this study, the impacts of TD on the energy spectra and thermal properties of LiH, TiC and I₂ diatomic molecules is considered. The Schrodinger equation in cosmic string spacetime is solved with the generalized Morse potential using the well-known (NU) method. The energy spectra and eigenfunction are obtained respectively. The energy spectra is used to obtain the partition function which is then used to evaluate the thermal properties of the system is evaluated accordingly. We find that the energy spectra in the presence of the TD differ from their flat Minkowski spacetime analogue. The effects of the deformation parameter and TD on the thermal properties of the system is also analysed in detail. We observe that the specific heat capacity of the system tends to exhibit quasi-saturation as the deformation parameter and topological defect approaches unity. The results of our study can be applied in the astrophysical situation where these modifications exist in the understanding of spectroscopical data and it may be used as a probe of the presence of a cosmic string or a global monopole in the Universe.

Ro-vibrational energies of cesium dimer and lithium dimer with molecular attractive potential

An approximate solution of the Schrӧdinger equation for a molecular attractive potential was obtained using the parametric Nikiforov–Uvarov method. The energy equation and the corresponding radial wave functions were calculated. The effects of the potential parameters on the energy eigenvalues were examined. The thermal properties under the molecular attractive potential were calculated and the behaviour of the thermal properties with the maximum quantum state (λ) and the temperature parameter (β) respectively, were studied. Using the molecular spectroscopic parameters, the Rydberg–Klein–Rees (RKR) of cesium dimer and lithium dimer were both obtained and compared with the experimental values. The RKR values of both cesium dimer and lithium dimer calculated aligned with the observed values. The deviation and average deviation of the RKR for each molecule were also calculated.

Eigensolution techniques, expectation values and Fisher information of Wei potential function

An approximate solution of the one-dimensional relativistic Klein-Gordon equation was obtained under the interaction of an improved expression for Wei potential energy function. The solution of the non-relativistic Schrödinger equation was obtained from the solution of the relativistic Klein-Gordon equation by certain mappings. We have calculated Fisher information for position space and momentum space via the computation of expectation values. The effects of some parameters of the Wei potential energy function on the Fisher information were fully examined graphically. We have also examined the effects of the quantum number n and the angular momentum quantum number ℓ on the expectation values and Fisher information respectively for some selected molecules. Our results revealed that the variation of most of the parameters of the Wei potential energy function against the Fisher information does not obey the Heisenberg uncertainty relation for Fisher information while that of the quantum number and angular momentum quantum number on Fisher information obeyed the relation.

Predictions of Entropy and Gibbs Energy for Carbonyl Sulfide

Many chemical and physical equilibrium conditions can be determined from minimizing the Gibbs free energies of the system. Efficient analytical representations of the entropy and Gibbs free energy of carbonyl sulfide remain elusive in the communality of science and engineering. Here, we report two analytical representations of the entropy and Gibbs free energy for carbonyl sulfide, and the prediction procedures only involve six molecular constants of the carbonyl sulfide molecule. In the temperature range from 300 to 6000 K, the average relative deviations of the predicted molar entropy and reduced Gibbs free energy values of carbonyl sulfide from the National Institute of Standards and Technology database are arrived at 0.150 and 0.189%, respectively.

Thermodynamic Properties for Carbon Dioxide

We first report three reliable analytical expressions of the entropy, enthalpy and Gibbs free energy of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and perform predictions of these three thermodynamic quantities on the basis of the proposed analytical expressions and in terms of experimental values of five molecular constants for CO₂. The average relative deviations of the calculated values from the National Institute of Standards and Technology database over the temperature range from 300 to 6000 K are merely 0.053, 0.95, and 0.070%, respectively, for the entropy, enthalpy, and Gibbs free energy. The present predictive expressions are away from the utilization of plenty of experimental spectroscopy data and are applicable to treat CO₂ capture and storage processes.

Thermodynamic Properties of Gaseous Carbon Disulfide

Efficient analytical representations of the thermodynamic properties for carbon disulfide remain open challenges in the communality of science and engineering. We present two analytical representations of the entropy and Gibbs free energy for gaseous carbon disulfide which we find to be of satisfactory accuracy and convenient for future use. The proposed two analytical representations merely rely on five molecular constants of the carbon disulfide molecule and avoid applications of a large number of experimental spectroscopy data. In the temperature range from 300 to 6000 K, the average relative deviations of the predicted molar entropy and reduced Gibbs free energy values from the National Institute of Standards and Technology database are 0.250 and 0.108%, respectively.

D-dimensional energies for cesium and sodium dimers

We solve the Schrödinger equation with the improved Rosen−Morse potential energy model in D spatial dimensions. The D-dimensional rotation-vibrational energy spectra have been obtained by using the supersymmetric shape invariance approach. The energies for the 33[Formula: see text]g+ state of the Cs2 molecule and the 51Δg state of the Na2 molecule increase as D increases in the presence of fixed vibrational quantum number and various rotational quantum numbers. We observe that the change in behavior of the vibrational energies in higher dimensions remains similar to that of the three-dimensional system.

Diatomic molecule energies of the modified Rosen−Morse potential energy model

We solve the Schrödinger equation with the modified Rosen−Morse empirical potential model to obtain rotation-vibrational energy spectra and unnormalized radial wave functions. The vibrational energy levels calculated with the modified Rosen−Morse potential model for the 61Πu state of the 7Li2 molecule and the X3Π state of the SiC radical are in better agreement with the Rydberg−Klein−Rees data than the predictions of the Morse potential model.

Molecular energies of the improved Tietz potential energy model

We solve the Schrödinger equation with the improved Tietz empirical potential energy model. The rotation-vibrational energy spectra and the unnormalized radial wave functions have been obtained. The vibrational energy levels predicted by using the improved Tietz potential model for the 51Δg state and C1Πu state of the Na2 molecule are in good agreement with the experimental Rydberg−Klein−Rees data.

Nonrelativistic and relativistic bound state solutions of the molecular Tietz potential via the improved asymptotic iteration method

We have obtained the approximate analytical solutions of the relativistic and nonrelativistic molecular Tietz potential using the improved asymptotic iteration method. By approximating the centrifugal term through the Greene–Aldrich approximation scheme, we have obtained the energy eigenvalues and wave functions for all orbital quantum numbers [Formula: see text]. Where necessary, we made comparison with the result obtained previously in the literature. The relative closeness of the two results reveal the accuracy of the method presented in this study. We proceed further to obtain the rotational-vibrational energy spectrum for some diatomic molecules. These molecules are CO, HCl, H2, and LiH. We have also obtained the relativistic bound state solution of the Klein−Gordon equation with this potential. In the nonrelativistic limits, our result converges to that of the Schrödinger system.
