Spin-Adapted Spin-Flip CIS (SA-SF-CIS) 1273 Zhang X., Herbert J. M.

is a spin-complete extension of the spin-flip single excitation configuration interaction (SF-CIS) method. 601 Krylov A. I.

Unlike SF-XCIS, SA-SF-CIS only includes the minimal set of electronic configurations needed to remove the spin contamination in the conventional SF-CIS method. The target SA-SF-CIS states have spin eigenvalues one less than the reference ROHF state, i.e., if singlet states ($S=0$) are targeted then the reference state should be a triplet ($S=1$), or if doublet states ($S=1/2$) are targeted then the reference state should be a quartet ($S=3/2$). The SA-SF-CIS approach uses a tensor equation-of-motion formalism, 1273 Zhang X., Herbert J. M.

such that the dimension of the CI vectors in SA-SF-CIS remains exactly the same as that in conventional SF-CIS. A DFT correction to SA-SF-CIS (i.e., SA-SF-TDDFT) can be added. 1273 Zhang X., Herbert J. M.
