Nonlocal van der Waals density functional: The simpler the better

Oleg A. Vydrov, Troy Van Voorhis

We devise a nonlocal correlation energy functional that describes the entire range of dispersion interactions in a seamless fashion using only the electron density as input. The ne…

Dispersion interactions from a local polarizability model

Oleg A. Vydrov, Troy Van Voorhis

A local approximation for dynamic polarizability leads to a nonlocal functional for the long-range dispersion interaction energy via an imaginary-frequency integral. We analyze sev…

Assessing the Performance of Recent Density Functionals for Bulk Solids

Gabor I. Csonka, John P. Perdew, Adrienn Ruzsinszky +5

We assess the performance of recent density functionals for the exchange-correlation energy of a nonmolecular solid, by applying accurate calculations with the GAUSSIAN, BAND, and…

Restoring the density-gradient expansion for exchange in solids and surfaces

John P. Perdew, Adrienn Ruzsinszky, Gabor I. Csonka +5

Successful modern generalized gradient approximations (GGA's) are biased toward atomic energies. Restoration of the first-principles gradient expansion for exchange over a wide ran…
