AbstractA series of electric and magnetic properties of hexafluorobenzene have been calculated, including the electric-dipole polarizability, magnetizability, electric-quadrupole moment and nonlinear mixed electric-dipole-magnetic-dipole-electric-quadrupole hyperpolarizabilities needed to obtain estimates of the Kerr, Cotton-Mouton, Buckingham, Jones and magneto-electric birefringences in the vapor phase. Time-dependent density-functional theory was employed for the calculation of linear, quadratic and cubic response functions. A number of density functionals have been considered, along with Sadlej's triple-\zeta basis set and the correlation-consistent aug-cc-pVDZ and aug-cc-pVTZ basis sets. Comparisons have been made with experiment where possible. The analysis of results allows for an assessment of the capability of time-dependent density-functional theory for high-order electro-magnetic properties of an electron rich system such as hexafluorobenzene.
