TABLE V.

Total computational time (min) and energy consumption (kWh) for DFT single point, analytic Hessian, TDDFT, and AXK calculations on {Th[C5H3(SiMe3)2]3} using TPSS and TPSSh functionals. 72 core orbitals were frozen for the AXK calculation. The calculations were performed on an Intel Xeon Gold 6148 @ 2.40 GHz CPU with 16 cores and on an AMD Ryzen 9 3900X @ 3.8 GHz CPU with 12 cores.

a

Single-point DFT calculation using the ridft module with the def-TZVP basis set on the Th atom and the def2-SV(P) basis set on the C, H, ans Si atoms, totaling 795 basis functions. The Stuttgart/Cologne ECP was used for Th.204

b

Force constant calculation for vibrational normal modes using the aoforce module with the same basis as the ridft calculations.

c

TDDFT calculation for the lowest 60 excitations using the escf module with the def-TZVP basis set on the Th atom and the def2-SVPD basis set on the C, H, and Si atoms.

d

RI-AXK calculation using the rirpa module with the def-TZVP basis set on the Th atom, the def2-TZVP basis set on the ring C atoms, and the def2-SV(P) basis set on the remaining C, H, and Si atoms.
