Systematic first-principles calculations of charge transfer transitions of transition metal ions (Sc3+, Ti3+, V3+, Cr3+, Mn3+, Fe3+) in α-Al2O3

In order to predict the LMCT energies for various trivalent transition metal (TM) ions in α-Al2O3 nonempirically, we performed first-principles calculations using TMO69− cluster (TM = Sc3+, Ti3+, V3+, Cr3+, Mn3+, Fe3+) using the Discrete Variational Multi-Electron (DVME) method, which is based on th...
