Ab initio calculation of accurate dissociation energy, potential energy curve and dipole moment function for the A1∑ + state 7LiH molecule

The reasonable dissociation limit of the A¹∑⁺ state $^{7}$LiH molecule is obtained. The accurate dissociation energy and the equilibrium geometry of this state are calculated using a symmetry-adapted-cluster configuration-interaction method in complete active space for the first time. The whole potential energy curve and the dipole moment function for theA¹∑⁺ state are calculated over a wide internuclear separation range from about 0.1 to 1.4\,nm. The calculated equilibrium geometry and dissociation energy of this potential energy curve are of R_{\e}=0.2487\,nm and D_{\e}=1.064\,eV, respectively. The unusual negative values of the anharmonicity constant and the vibration-rotational coupling constant are of \textit{\omega }_{\e}\textit{\chi }_{\e}=--4.7158cm^{ - 1} and \textit{\alpha }_{\e}=--0.08649cm^{ -1}, respectively. The vertical excitation energy from the ground to the A¹∑⁺ state is calculated and the value is of 3.613\,eV at 0.15875nm (the equilibrium position of the ground state). The highly anomalous shape of this potential energy curve, which is exceptionally flat over a wide radial range around the equilibrium position, is discussed in detail. The harmonic frequency value of 502.47cm¹ about this state is approximately estimated. Careful comparison of the theoretical determinations with those obtained by previous theories about the A¹∑⁺ state dissociation energy clearly shows that the present calculations are much closer to the experiments than previous theories, thus represents an improvement.
