Abstract
Abstract A semi-empirical SCF method for valence electron systems is presented. In the present method, the one-center integrals are estimated by means of the empirical values, while the two-center Coulomb integrals are calculated by the Ohno approximation. The other electronic repulsion integrals are evaluated by the Mulliken approximation. All overlap integrals in the secular equation are taken into account. By the present method, the electronic structures of several small polyatomic molecules are then studied. The calculated results are compared with the full SCF calculations and with the experimental values. The agreements between them are almost entirely satisfactory. The limitations of this method and the values of the parameters used are also discussed briefly.
