The longitudinal component of the dynamic electronic first hyperpolarizability of
,
-nitro,amino-polyacetylene
oligomers containing a small number of unit cells has been computed at the
Hartree-Fock, Møller-Plesset and
coupled-cluster levels with different atomic basis sets.
Using frequency-dependent coupled-cluster results,
we have tested the efficiency of the additive and multiplicative corrections
to approximate the frequency-dependent correlated values.
The multiplicative approach provides frequency-dependent
electronic first hyperpolarizability values that are within a few percent
of the true correlated ones whereas the additive correction leads to
L(-
;
1,
2) too small by ~20%.
It turns out that the MP2/6-31G procedure is a suitable approach to reach a semi-quantitative accuracy.
