Accurate calculations of dynamic first hyperpolarizability: Construction of physically justified slater‐type basis sets

Abstract

An efficient procedure for construction of physically rationalized Slater‐type basis sets for calculations of dynamic hyperpolarizability is proposed. Their performance is evaluated for the DFT level calculations for model molecules, carried out with a series of functionals. Advantages of new basis sets over standard d‐aug‐cc‐pVTZ and recently developed LPOL‐(FL,FS) Gaussian‐type basis sets are discussed. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
