Abstract
A recent full-dimensional Δ-Machine learning potential energy surface (PES) for ethanol is employed in semiclassical and vibrational self-consistent field (VSCF) and virtual-state configuration interaction (VCI) calculations, using MULTIMODE, to determine the anharmonic vibrational frequencies of vibration for both the trans and gauche conformers of ethanol. Both semiclassical and VSCF/VCI energies agree well with the experimental data. We find significant mixing between the VSCF basis states due to Fermi resonances between bending and stretching modes. The same effects are also accurately described by the full-dimensional semiclassical calculations. These are the first high-level anharmonic calculations using a PES, in particular a "gold-standard" CCSD(T) one.
