| Abstract: | We investigate the vibrational shift of beryllium oxide (BeO) in Xe matrix as well as in Ar matrix environments by mixed quantum-classical simulation and examine the origin of spectral shift in details. BeO is known to form strong chemical complex with single rare gas atom, and it is predicted from the gas phase calculations that vibrational frequencies are blueshifted by 78 cm^[-1] and 80 cm^[-1] upon formation of XeBeO and ArBeO, respectively. When the effects of other surrounding rare gas atoms are included by Monte Carlo simulations, it is found that the vibrational frequencies are redshifted by 21 cm^[-1] and 8 cm^[-1] from the isolated XeBeO and ArBeO complexes, respectively. The vibrational shift of XeBeO in Ar matrix is also calculated and compared with experimental data. In all simulations examined in this paper, the calculated vibrational frequency shifts from the isolated BeO molecule are in reasonable agreement with experimental values. The spectral shift due to the rare-gas-complex formation of RgBeO (Rg = Xe or Ar) is not negligible as seen in the previous studies, but it is shown in this paper that the effects of other surrounding rare gas atoms should be carefully taken into account for quantitative description of the spectral shifts and that these two effects are competing in vibrational spectroscopy of BeO in matrix environments. |
