Rehabilitation of PBE-GGA for Layered Materials
Haowei Peng, John P. Perdew
The structural and energetic properties of layered materials propose a challenge to density functional theory with common semilocal approximations to the exchange-correlation. By c…
A Computational Framework for Automation of Point Defect Calculations
Anuj Goyal, Prashun Gorai, Haowei Peng +2
A complete and rigorously validated open-source Python framework to automate point defect calculations using density functional theory has been developed. The framework provides an…
Understanding Band Gaps of Solids in Generalized Kohn-Sham Theory
John P. Perdew, Weitao Yang, Kieron Burke +11
The fundamental energy gap of a periodic solid distinguishes insulators from metals and characterizes low-energy single-electron excitations. But the gap in the band-structure of t…
Near-locality of exchange and correlation density functionals for 1- and 2-electron systems
Jianwei Sun, John P. Perdew, Zenghui Yang +1
The uniform electron gas and the hydrogen atom play fundamental roles in condensed matter physics and quantum chemistry. The former has an infinite number of electrons uniformly di…
More-Realistic Band Gaps from Meta-Generalized Gradient Approximations: Only in a Generalized Kohn-Sham Scheme
Zeng-hui Yang, Haowei Peng, Jianwei Sun +1
Unlike the local density approximation (LDA) and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA), calculations with meta-generalized gradient approximations (meta-GGA) are usually don…
