摘要: A multistate empirical valence bond (MS-EVB) model for describing proton transport in aqueous systems is presented. In this approach the electrostatic interaction of solvent water molecules with an exchange charge distribution explicitly included off-diagonal elements EVB Hamiltonian. The MS-EVB parametrized to reproduce geometrical and energetic quantities selected H3O+·(H2O)N clusters. obtained geometries, formation energies, energy barriers are excellent agreement results from high-level ab initio calculations. It furthermore applied a classical molecular dynamics simulation condensed-phase excess order estimate proton-transfer rate.
