Static and dynamic density functional investigation of hydrated beryllium dications

Abstract: rnUsing density functional theory with Becke's gradient correction for the exchange part and Vanderbilt's ultrasoft pseudopotentials, we investigated [Be(H,0),]2+ clusters for n = 1 and 3. A new scheme implemented with the Car-Parrinello method is used, upon which no periodic boundary conditions are imposed so that isolated and possibly charged molecules can also be treated dynamically in a plane-wave basis. Harmonic vibrational frequencies are obtained via a fit of the molecular dynamics trajectory in terms o… Show more

“…For example, using typical quantum kinetic energies of the valence electrons and µ = 500 a.u., such correction amounts to the frequency blue-shifts with respect to ω CP of the order of about 5% for modes that involve significant hydrogen or oxygen motion. 64,65 In such case we miss other very important effect -quantization of nuclear motion. The results with this influence will be presented in subsection 3.4.…”

“…Be 2+ hydration has also been considered within the Car-Parrinello approach [10,11,12]. There a hexa-hydrate cluster quickly dissociated to give a tetrahydrate structure [10].…”

“…Force-fields employing the hydratedion concept have been derived from ab initio calculations for Zn 2ϩ (aq) by Pappalardo and Marcos, 47 for Al 3ϩ (aq) by Wasserman et al, 48 and for aqueous Be 2ϩ , Mg 2ϩ , Al 3ϩ , and Cr 3ϩ by Martínez et al [49][50][51] Hydrated-ion potentials have also been derived empirically for Cr 3ϩ (aq) by Bleuzen et al 52 Recently it has also become possible to study the solvation of ions in water using the Car-Parrinello approach. Although the computational expense still prohibits long simulations of reasonably sized systems, a number of studies in the literature, for instance the studies of Be 2ϩ (aq) by Marx et al, 53 Li ϩ (aq) by Lyubartsev et al, 54 Cu 2ϩ (aq) by Pasquarello et al, 55 and Mg 2ϩ (aq) by Lightstone et al, 56 indicate that this approach has potential. The group of Rode et al has used a QM/MM approach in the MD simulations, where the area closest to the ion is treated using an ab initio method, while interactions further away from the ion are treated classically.…”
