Medium-size polarized basis sets for high-level-correlated calculations of molecular electric properties

Abstract

The basis set polarization approach is employed for the generation of medium-size polarized GTO/CGTO basis sets for calculations of molecular dipole moments and polarizabilities. The excellent performance of the [13.10.4/7.5.2] GTO/CGTO polarized basis sets derived for Si through Cl is illustrated by the atomic polarizability results and SCF and MBPT data for dipole moments and polarizabilities of the second-row atom hydrides. The possible applications of the electric-property oriented polarized basis sets are discussed. The basis set data for Si through Cl are those for H and C through F append the paper.
