Abstract

We have developed new relativistic model core potentials (MCPs) for the first-row transition-metal atoms from Sc to Zn, in which 3s and 3p electrons are treated explicitly together with the 3d and 4s electrons. By adding suitable correlating functions, we demonstrated that the present MCP basis sets show reasonable performance in describing the electronic structures of atoms and molecules, bringing about accurate excitation energies for atoms and good molecular spectroscopic constants.
