Introducing the coordinates in Z-matrix form Objectives study how to introduce the coordinates of a molecule in Z-matrix form

The Z-matrix provides a description of each atom in a molecule in terms of the internal coordinates Internal coordinates: Species of each atom Distances Angles Torsion (dihedral) angles This is particularly useful when working with molecular systems or restricted optimizations (control optimization variables) The name arises because the Z-matrix assigns the second atom along the Z-axis from the first atom, which is at the origin.

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule This specifies the atoms that make up each molecule and their geometry.

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule fractional In the absence of such an option, the distance units are taken to be the value of “ZM.UnitsLength” %block Zmatrix molecule scaled %block Zmatrix molecule In addition, an option may be passed, that indicates the units in which distances are specified in

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule Nspecie i j k r a t ifr ifa ift One line per each atom in the molecule Integers Double precision

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule Nspecie i j k r a t ifr ifa ift One line per each atom in the molecule Integers Integer flags that indicate whether r, a, and t, respectively, should be varied in a relaxation or molecular dynamics ; 0 for fixed, 1 for varying. Double precision Species number of the atom

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule Nspecie The coordinates of the first atom… the easiest one. It will be taken as the origin For the first atom, set them to 0 Cartesian coordinates (let us take as the origin in this example) Species number of the atom

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule Nspecie Nspecie d The coordinates of the second atom Coordinates, in spherical coordinates, of the second atom with respect to the first atom In this particular example, this is just the distance along the z-axis of the second atom with respect to the first

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule Nspecie Nspecie d Nspecie d31 The coordinates of the third atom Distance of the third atom to the atom indicated in this position (in this example, this number indicates the distance between atom 3 and atom 1)

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule Nspecie Nspecie d Nspecie d31 a123 The coordinates of the third atom Angle made by the third atom with respect atoms indicated here and here (in this example, this number indicates the angle formed between atoms 1, 2, and 3)

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule Nspecie Nspecie d Nspecie d31 a123 t The coordinates of the third atom Torsional angle made by the third atom with respect atoms indicated here, here, and here (for the third atom is defined relative to a notional atom 1 unit in the z-direction above the atom j)

Examples of the Z-matrix input in Siesta %block Zmatrix molecule Nspecie Nspecie d Nspecie d31 a123 t … NspecieX ……. %endblock Zmatrix The rest of the atoms follow the same specification: Distance with respect atom i Angle with respect atom j and i Torsional angle with respect atoms k, j, and i

Instead of specifying a numerical value, it is possible to specify a symbol within the above geometry definitions. %block Zmatrix molecule fractional HO HO2 HOH variables HO HO constant HOH %endblock Zmatrix Define the symbol as a constant Define the symbol as variables Example, the water molecule

Exercise: define the coordinates of a CH4 molecule in Z-matrix form %block Zmatrix molecule CH CH CH CH variables CH %endblock Zmatrix ZM.UnitsLength Ang ZM.UnitsAngle Deg Modify the distance CH by hand and find the equilibrium distance

Exercise: Compute the energy for different C-H bond lengths siesta ch4.your_distance.Ang.out In the present example, try from 1.05 to 1.30 Ang in steps of 0.05 Ang Tabulate the energy as a function of the C-H bond length grep “Total = ch4.*.Ang.out > ch4.distance.dat Modify this variable These numbers have been obtained with siesta-3.0-b, compiled with the g95 compiler and double precision in the grid. Numbers might change slightly depending on the platform, compiler and compilation flags

Exercise: Compute the energy for different C-H bond lengths gnuplot gnuplot> plot “ch4.distance.dat” using 1:2 with lines Compare the equilibrium distance with the experimental distance of 1.09 Å

Compute the equilibrium distance by means of a Conjugate Gradient minimization: Single-ζ basis set siesta ch4.cg.out Edit the input file and introduce the following lines (this has been done for you in the ch4.cg.fdf file) Search in the output file the relaxed structure Here you are the equilibrium distance

Compute the equilibrium distance by means of a Conjugate Gradient minimization: Double-ζ plus polarization basis set siesta ch4.cg.dzp.out Edit the input file and change PAO.BasisSize to DZP (this has been done for you in the ch4.cg.dzp.fdf file) Search in the output file the relaxed structure and compare with the experimental value of 1.09 Å
