Popis: Using the Hartree-Fock-Roothaan procedure the nuclear quadrupole interactions of the19F (spin 5/2) nucleus in CF4, SiF4 and GeF4 are studied. The theoretical results explain within 10% the observed experimental measurements by the time-differential perturbed angular distribution technique, including the important feature of sharp decrease of the19F* nuclear quadrupole coupling constant in going from CF4 to SiF4, followed by an increase in going to GeF4, while a simple consideration of the ionic characters of the C-F, Si-F and Ge-F bonds together with Townes and Dailey theory would lead to a continuous decrease from CF4 to GeF4. The dependence of the results on the choice of basis sets and the role of many-body effects is discussed.
