Comparison of frozen-density embedding and discrete reaction field solvent models for molecular properties.
We investigate the performance of two discrete solvent models in connection with density functional theory (DFT) for the calculation of molecular properties. In our comparison we include the discrete reaction field (DRF) model, a combined quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics (QM/MM) model using a polarizable force field, and the frozen-density embedding (FDE) scheme. We employ these solven...
متن کاملDensity functional theory of solvation in a polar solvent: extracting the functional from homogeneous solvent simulations.
In the density functional theory formulation of molecular solvents, the solvation free energy of a solute can be obtained directly by minimization of a functional, instead of the thermodynamic integration scheme necessary when using atomistic simulations. In the homogeneous reference fluid approximation, the expression of the free-energy functional relies on the direct correlation function of t...
متن کاملA Density Functional Theory Study of Boron Nitride Nano-Ribbons
The electronic and structural properties of pristine and carbon doped (C-doped) boron nitride nano-ribbons(BNNRs) have been studied employing density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Total energies, gapenergies, dipole moments, and quadrupole coupling constants (qcc) have been calculated in the optimizedstructures of the investigated BNNRs. The results indicated that the stability and gap ...
متن کاملA Density Functional Theory Study of Structure of Phosphonic Acid
The molecular structure of the stable conformation of phosphonic acid in gas phase has beencomputed by employing complete geometry optimization in Density Functional Theory(DFT) methods. The methods used for calculations are B3LYP, BP86 and B3PW91 that havebeen studied in two series of basis sets: D95** and 6-31+G(d,p) for hydrogen and oxygenatoms; LANL2DZ for phosphorus. Bond lengths and angle...
متن کاملMean - field dynamical density functional theory
We examine the out-of-equilibrium dynamical evolution of density profiles of ultrasoft particles under time-varying external confining potentials in three spatial dimensions. The theoretical formalism employed is the dynamical density functional theory (DDFT) of Marini Bettolo Marconi and Tarazona [J. Chem. Phys. 110, 8032 (1999)], supplied by an equilibrium excess free energy functional that i...
