Benchmarks and reliable DFT results for spin-crossover complexes

Suhwan Song, Min-Cheol Kim, Eunji Sim +3

DFT is used throughout nanoscience, especially when modeling spin-dependent properties that are important in spintronics. But standard quantum chemical methods (both CCSD(T) and se…

The Importance of being consistent

Adam Wasserman, Jonathan Nafziger, Kaili Jiang +3

We review the role of self-consistency in density functional theory. We apply a recent analysis to both Kohn-Sham and orbital-free DFT, as well as to Partition-DFT, which generaliz…

Ions in solution: Density Corrected Density Functional Theory (DC-DFT)

Min-Cheol Kim, Eunji Sim, Kieron Burke

Standard density functional approximations often give questionable results for odd-electron radical complexes, with the error typically attributed to self-interaction. In density c…

Understanding and reducing errors in density functional calculations

Min-Cheol Kim, Eunji Sim, Kieron Burke

We decompose the energy error of any variational DFT calculation into a contribution due to the approximate functional and that due to the approximate density. Typically, the funct…

Avoiding Unbound Anions in Density Functional Calculations

Min-Cheol Kim, Eunji Sim, Kieron Burke

Converged approximate density functional calculations usually do not bind anions, due to large self-interaction error. But Hartree-Fock calculations have no such prob- lem, produci…
