Ab initio study of the electronic, spectroscopic, and laser-cooling properties of NaN and NaN − molecular species

The laser-cooling feasibility of NaN − anion is investigated using high-level ab initio theoretical methods. Potential energy curves (PECs) for 16 low-lying electronic states of NaN and 28 electronic states of NaN − were determined using the internally contracted multi-reference configuration interaction method. From t...
