Origin Invariant Optical Rotation Tensor in the Length Dipole Gauge without London Atomic Orbitals
ORAL
Abstract
We present an approach to perform origin invariant optical rotation calculations in the length dipole gauge without recourse to London atomic orbitals, called origin invariant length gauge [LG(OI)]. The LG(OI) approach works with any approximate wave function or density functional method, but here we focus on the implementation with the coupled cluster (CC) with single and double excitations method because of the lack of production-level alternatives. Preliminary numerical tests show the efficacy of the LG(OI) procedure and indicate that putting the origin in the center of mass of a molecule may not be an optimal choice for conventional CC-LG calculations.
