Orbital-Free Density Functional Theory for Molecular Structure Calculations
We give here an overview of the orbital-free density functional theory that is used for modeling atoms and molecules. We review typical approximations to the kinetic energy, exchange-correlation corrections to the kinetic and Hartree energies, and constructions of the pseudopotentials. We discuss numerical discretizations for the orbital-free methods and include several numerical results for il...
متن کاملOrbital-corrected orbital-free density functional theory.
A new implementation of density functional theory (DFT), namely orbital-corrected orbital-free (OO) DFT, has been developed. With at most two non-self-consistent iterations, OO-DFT accomplishes the accuracy comparable to fully self-consistent Kohn-Sham DFT as demonstrated by its application on the cubic-diamond Si and the face-centered-cubic Ag systems. Our work provides a new impetus to furthe...
متن کاملDensity Functional Theory Study of B6C4Si Cluster as a Novel Drug Carrier
The aim of the present study was to prepare new cluster (B6C4Si) as an antibiotic carrier. Density functional theory (DFT) method at the B3LYP level of theory in conjugate with the 6-311G** basis set was used to evaluate the interaction between B6C4Si cluster and Penicillin. Binding parameters, HOMO, LUMO and HOMO- LUMO GAP were calculated. Results show the B6C4Si HOMO–LUMO gap value of 0.13...
متن کاملElectronic Properties of Hydrogen Adsorption on the Silicon- Substituted C20 Fullerenes: A Density Functional Theory Calculations
The B3LYP/6-31++G** density functional calculations were used to obtain minimum geometries and interaction energies between the molecular hydrogen and nanostructures of fullerenes, C20 (cage), C20 (bowl), C19Si (bowl, penta), C19Si (bowl, hexa). The H2 molecule is set as adsorbed in the distance of 3Å at vertical position from surface above the pentagonal and hexagonal sites of nanostructures. ...
متن کاملIssues and challenges in orbital-free density functional calculations
Solving the Euler equation which corresponds to the energy minimum of a density functional expressed in orbital-free form involves related but distinct computational challenges. One is the choice between allelectron and pseudopotential calculations and, if the latter, construction of the pseudopotential. Another is the stability, speed, and accuracy of solution algorithms. Underlying both is th...
