Adsorption of rare-gas atoms on Cu(111) and Pb(111) surfaces by van der Waals-corrected Density Functional Theory
Pier Luigi Silvestrelli, Alberto Ambrosetti, Sonja Grubisiĉ +1
The DFT/vdW-WF method, recently developed to include the Van der Waals interactions in Density Functional Theory (DFT) using the Maximally Localized Wannier functions, is applied t…
Van der Waals Interactions in DFT using Wannier Functions: improved and coefficients by a new approach
A. Ambrosetti, P. L. Silvestrelli
A new implementation is proposed for including van der Waals interactions in Density Functional Theory using the Maximally-Localized Wannier functions. With respect to the previous…
Variational Monte Carlo for spin-orbit interacting systems
Alberto Ambrosetti, Pier Luigi Silvestrelli, Flavio Toigo +2
Recently, a diffusion Monte Carlo algorithm was applied to the study of spin dependent interactions in condensed matter. Following some of the ideas presented therein, and applied…
