New implementations of MRCI in semiempirical frameworks

Multireference configuration interaction with single and double excitations (MRCISD) as well as its analytic CI gradients has been implemented in the semiempirical framework. The hole-particle symmetry and a mixed driven model for computing coupling coefficients have been used in the new code that allows us to perform MRCI and gradient calculations with higher efficiency and less storage requirements. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
