H eff [,, F k,g k ] alternative Limiting Case Coupling Schemes L S J vs. j 1 j J off-diagonal vs. F Lecture #6: Many e Atoms energy levels eigenstates transition intensities 1. list of orbital occupancies e.g. 1s s p configuration. Which L S terms result? * list all spin-orbitals p: (overbar means m S = 1/ or ) * list all Slater determinants (anti-symmetrized microstates) consistent with Exclusion Principle e.g. 11 M L = M S =0 standard order of spin-orbitals (needed to get correct signs of matrix elements) * Classify Slaters according to M L and M S * Method of crossing out of microstates: M L,M S ranges for each L S term (p 3 4 S, D, P) * Total degeneracy of a configuration p : = Find the linear combinations of Slaters that are eigenstates in either representation: LM L SM S OR LSJM J These cause H eff to be block diagonalized. 4. Compute matrix elements of H in selected basis set. SO * H = (r i ) i s i ME of 1e operator z n (n) * H ee = e r ij ME of e operator f k F k (n,n) + g k G k (n,n) i> j k,n,n n H eff expressed in terms of fit parameters: orbital energy spin-orbit direct exchange F k G k,, F k,g k orbital radial integrals fit parameters z n,f k,g k are exactly calculable ANGULAR INTEGRALS Would take or 3 lectures to explain how to compute: *1e and e operator matrix elements of Slater determinants

3 5.80 Lecture #6 Fall, 008 Page * how to work out z n,f k,g k factors (see Group Theory and Quantum Mechanics, M. Tinkham, pp ) My goal here is to expose you to the atomic H eff models. Often the relevant 1/r ij and spin-orbit matrices can be found in a book like Condon and Shortley. Read Tinkham pages for methods of evaluating these matrix elements yourselves. Examine the n = 3 and n = levels of H atom explicitly and compare against the observed spectrum. n = can have =0and1 j = 1/ j = 1/ and 3/ n=3hasl=0,1, j = 5/, 3/ n j s E /hc H SO /hc 0 1/ 1/ / 1/ / 1/ / 1/ / 1/ / 1/ / 1/ / 1/ See Figures Energy Level Diagram Spectrum (Theoretical from C & S) Compare P 3/ P 1/ energy level splitting for hydrogenic systems vs. Z H I cm 1 Li III 30 cm 1 Na XI 5400 cm 1

Please see: Fig. 35 in Condon, E. E., and G. H. Shortley. The Theory of Atomic Spectra. Cambridge, UK. Cambridge University Press, This illustrates the spin-orbit fine structure of the H atom n = 3 n = spectrum. Transitions are labeled (a) (g) following the table on the previous page. The lengths of the lines represent the calculated relative intensities (assuming equal populations in all m j components of the n = levels). Orbital-Based Periodic Correlations: what do we look at to see the correlations? Lowest L S J state? Center of gravity of entire configuration?

We know how each of these parameters should scale vs. Z for isoelectronic series or across row as Z Z +1, or as N N +1 vs. n for Rydberg series Example (3d) for 3d N 4s of Sc Cu 4 Goes as Z eff (imperfect shielding of one 3d by others) as Z increases. The plot of (LS) is for the lowest L S term (MAX S, MAX L) (Hund s rules)
