Understanding and reducing errors in density functional calculations.
We decompose the energy error of any variational density functional theory calculation into a contribution due to the approximate functional and that due to the approximate density. Typically, the functional error dominates, but in many interesting situations the density-driven error dominates. Examples range from calculations of electron affinities to preferred geometries of ions and radicals ...
متن کاملSelf-interaction errors in density-functional calculations of electronic transport.
All density-functional calculations of single-molecule transport to date have used continuous exchange-correlation approximations. The lack of derivative discontinuity in such calculations leads to the erroneous prediction of metallic transport for insulating molecules. A simple and computationally undemanding atomic self-interaction correction (SIC) opens conduction gaps in I-V characteristics...
متن کاملUnderstanding Hydrogen Adsorption in MIL-47-M (M = V and Fe) through Density Functional Theory
The present paper aims to investigate the role of open metal site metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) on hydrogen adsorptivity using periodic boundary condition (PBC) density functional theory (DFT). Hence, MIL-47-M (M = V and Fe) were selected and one hydrogen molecule adsorptivity was calculated in different orientations on them. Four different chemical sites were identified in every cluster sect...
متن کاملBasis Set Effects in Density Functional Calculations and BSSEcorrected on the Molybdate-Phosphonic acid Complex
In this research, this possibility was investigated the relative stablilty geometry and bindingenergies of the hydrogen bonds of Molybdate-Phosphonic Acid (MPA) complex in gas phase onthe basis of result of ab initio and DFT calculations. Three DFT methods have been applied forcalculations are B3LYP, BP86 and B3PW91 that have been studied in two series of basis sets:D95** and 6-31+G(d,p) for hy...
متن کاملWavelets in all-electron density-functional calculations
We have developed an all-electron density-functional ~AE-DF! program using the Mexican hat wavelet. The AE-DF program is applied to the ab initio all-electron calculations of small molecules as prototype systems, and the construction scheme of multiresolution support spheres is used to optimize the computational efficiency. Convergences are systematically demonstrated as a function of the numbe...
