The effect of the choice of orbitals, as well as the backflow transformation, is studied. The Slater-Jastrow DMC algorithm gives BDEs of 359.1±0.12 kJ/mol for HB-H, 410.5±0.50 kJ/mol for HOB-OH, 357.8±1.46 kJ/mol for ClB-Cl, and 504.5±0.96 kJ/mol for B-Cl using B3PW91 orbitals and similar BDEs when B3LYP orbitals are used. DMC with backflow corrections （BF-DMC） gives a HB-H BDE of 369.9±0.12 kJ/mol which is close to one of the available experimental value （375.8 kJ/mol）. In the case of HOB-OH BDE, the BF-DMC calculation is 446.04-1.84 k J/mol that is closer to the experimental BDE. The BF-DMC BDE for ClB-Cl is 343.2±2.34 kJ/mol and the BF-DMC B-Cl BDE is 523.3±0.33 kJ/mol, which are close to the experimental BDEs, 341.9 and 530.0 kJ/mol, respectively.展开更多

Moreover, the distribution of the neutral oxygen divacancy can also exert some influence on the properties of α-quartz. The dissimilarity and similarities are presented in the corresponding density of state（DOS） and absorption spectrum. In addition, when a higher defect concentration is involved in α-quartz,the influence of E1 center on the geometry of α-quartz becomes more significant. However, the introduction of an E1 center barely results in any improvement compared with the influence produced by the corresponding neutral defect.展开更多
