Excited states of transition metal complexes are generally strongly correlated due to the near-degeneracy of the metal d orbitals. Consequently, electronic structure calculations of such species often necessitate multireference approaches. However, widespread use of multireference methods is hindered due to the active space selection problem, which has historically required system-specific chemical knowledge and a trial-and-error approach.

This is because potentials need to be developed that accurately account for the motion of the adsorbent in response to the presence of adsorbate molecules. In this work, we show that it is possible to use accurate machine learning atomistic potentials for metal-organic frameworks in concert with classical potentials for adsorbates to accurately compute diffusivities though a hybrid potential approach.
