Quantifying Electronic and Vibronic Contributions to Charge Transfer at the Nanoscale

Jessica Martinez, Eric Duverger, Michele Pavanello +1

Charge transfer (CT) is governed by complex multiscale dynamics sensitive to environmental factors. In molecules, charge state and vibrational effects shape energy levels, charge d…

Machine learning the two-electron reduced density matrix in molecules and condensed phases

Jessica A. Martinez B., Bhaskar Rana, Xuecheng Shao +2

Machine learning is rapidly accelerating materials and chemical discovery, but most current models target energies, forces, or selected molecular properties rather than the underly…

Pseudopotentials for Orbital-Free DFT: Capturing Nonlocality and Correcting Functional Approximants

Valeria Rios-Vargas, Ezekiel Oyeniyi, Xuecheng Shao +4

Developing reliable pseudopotentials for orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT), especially for transition metals, remains a significant challenge. In this study, we provi…

Density-Functionalized QM/MM Delivers Chemical Accuracy For Solvated Systems

Xin Chen, Jessica Martinez, Xuecheng Shao +4

We present a reformulation of QM/MM as a fully quantum mechanical theory of interacting subsystems, all treated at the level of density functional theory (DFT). For the MM subsyste…

Nonlocal vs Local Pseudopotentials Affect Kinetic Energy Kernels in Orbital-Free DFT

Zhandos A. Moldabekov, Xuecheng Shao, Michele Pavanello +2

The kinetic energy (KE) kernel, which is defined as the second order functional derivative of the KE functional with respect to density, is the key ingredient to the construction o…
