Why solve multi-reference problems with a single-reference method?
• To study the mechanism of chemical vapor deposition such as silicon carbide CVD.
• >100 gas-phase reactions at 1000 – 2000 K; many of which involve bi/tri/tetra-radicals.1
• Need an accurate, size-extensive, and inexpensive black-box method to study CVD.

Background of CCL
• “Left eigenstate completely-renormalized coupled-cluster singles, doubles, and non-iterative triples”, a.k.a. CR-CCSD(T)L or CR-CC(2,3),1-3 abbreviated as CCL.
• An accurate, size-extensive, and relatively inexpensive black-box method.
• RHF and ROHF based CCL are implemented in GAMESS ($contrl cctyp=cr-ccl $end).

ROCCL vs. UCCSD(T)ROCCL vs. MRMP2
• UCCSD(T): often used to treat near-equilibrium open-shell species with little multi-reference character.
• MRMP2: can be used to treat bond-breaking reactions, bi-radical and tri-radical systems with significant multi-reference character.Eg. H2C–H 3CH2 + H

MINI Basis Set
Quality of the CCL method
• For bi-radicals,NPE & REE: R-CCL << R-CCSD(T).
• For tri-radicals,NPE: RO-CCL ≈ MRMP2 < U-CCSD(T). REE: RO-CCL ≈ U-CCSD(T) < MRMP2.
• CCL is ideal for calculations on PES study such as the unimolecular decomposition pathways of C2H4.
27
Why C2H4 C2H2 + H2?
• Chemical vapor deposition of diamond, graphite, carbon nanotubes, and silicon carbide.
• Lack of accurate potential energy surface (PES) of the decomposition of C2H4.
• C2H4 C2H2 + H2: is there a direct path?
28
Computational Methods
• Geometry optimization calculations at the CCL/cc-pVTZ level.
• Hessian calculations at CCL/cc-pVTZ level.
• Harmonic-oscillator/rigid-rotor approximation.
• Single point energies obtained at the CCL/cc-pV5Z level.

Conclusions (I)• For bi-radicals, CCL is much more accurate than R-
CCSD(T).
• For tri-radicals, CCL is slightly better than U-CCSD(T) and MRMP2.
• CCL/cc-pVTZ predicts accurate molecule geometry (0.002Å, 0.3o).
• Both CCL/cc-pVQZ and CCL/cc-pV5Z predicts reaction energy within 4 kJ/mol error.
39
Conclusions (II)• Accurate CCL/cc-pV5Z C2H4 PES and Gibbs energy
surfaces at CVD temperatures are obtained.
• There’s no direct path from ethylene to acetylene.
• The dominant reaction path below 1800 K is
C2H4 H2C=C: + H2 C2H2 + H2.
• The dominant reaction path above 1800 K is
C2H4 H2C=CH + H C2H2 + H + H.
