Abstract
Efficient periodic boundary condition (PBC) calculations by the second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation (MP2) method based on crystal orbital formalism are developed by introducing the resolution-of-identity (RI) approximation of four-center two-electron repulsion integrals (ERIs). The formulation and implementation of the PBC RI-MP2 method are presented. In this method, the mixed auxiliary basis functions of the combination of Poisson and Gaussian type functions are used to circumvent the slow convergence of the lattice sum of the long-range ERIs. Test calculations of one-dimensional periodic trans-polyacetylene show that the PBC RI-MP2 method greatly reduces the computational times as well as memory and disk sizes, without the loss of accuracy, compared to the conventional PBC MP2 method.
