Vibrational levels of a generalized Morse potential

Abstract

A Generalized Morse Potential (GMP) is an extension of the Morse Potential (MP) with an additional exponential term and an additional parameter that compensate for MP’s erroneous behavior in the long range part of the interaction potential. Because of the additional term and parameter, the vibrational levels of the GMP cannot be solved analytically, unlike the case for the MP. We present several numerical approaches for solving the vibrational problem of the GMP based on Galerkin methods, namely, the Laguerre Polynomial Method (LPM), the Symmetrized LPM, and the Polynomial Expansion Method (PEM), and apply them to the vibrational levels of the homonuclear diatomic molecules B2, O2, and F2, for which high level theoretical near full configuration interaction (CI) electronic ground state potential energy surfaces and experimentally measured vibrational levels have been reported. Overall, the LPM produces vibrational states for the GMP that are converged to within spectroscopic accuracy of 0.01 cm−1 in between 1 and 2 orders of magnitude faster and with much fewer basis functions/grid points than the Colbert–Miller Discrete Variable Representation (CN-DVR) method for the three homonuclear diatomic molecules examined in this study. A Python library that fits and solves the GMP and similar potentials can be downloaded from https://gitlab.com/gds001uw/generalized-morse-solver.
