PG - 118891 LID - S1386-1425(20)30870-2 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.saa.2020.118891 [doi] AB - Accurate calculation of molecular polarizabilities and Raman intensities required high-level correlated wave functions (CCSD) and large basis set with the inclusion of electronic correlation within experimental precision. These requirements, in terms of time and computation, are economically costly. Polarized Gaussian basis sets adapted to effective core potentials (ECPs) for the static and frequency dependent Raman intensities is presented. The results of the proposed basis sets at CCSD and DFT levels in comparison with Sadlej-pVTZ, as reference basis set, show quite a good quantitative agreement in the properties with a valuable reduction in the computational time and resources. Multivariate principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to study the assessment of the efficiency of proposed methodology and diagnose the inherent information related to the kind of normal vibrational mode of each molecule, based on the variations in the computed Raman intensities. The results, in the form of score-plots, explored a clear segregation and classification among the Raman intensities data, revealing its dependence on the excitation frequencies of laser and nature of the vibrational mode of each molecule of interest. Moreover, the projection of the loadings-plots of the PCs successfully enabled to classify the most correlated computational methods in to the same groups, and made isolations of the less efficient basis functions at the corresponding theoretical method.
