A new challenge for time-dependent density-functional theory
نویسندگان
چکیده
Time-dependent density functional theory is thought to work well for the test cases of He and Be atoms. We perform a quantum defect analysis of the s, p, and d Rydberg states of Be with accurate ground state Kohn-Sham potentials. The s and p-quantum defects are well described by the ALDA, but fails badly for the d-quantum defect. The same failure is observed in case of He. This provides a new challenge for functional development in time-dependent density functional theory.

ABSTRACT The application of many hetero-aromatic compounds in pharmaceutical and dye industries make the theoretical study of their dipole moment (µ) oscillator strength (f) and other photo-physical properties worthwhile. These properties determine the solubility of many compounds; predict the relationship between their structures, properties and performance. The f, µ, α, transition dipole mome...

We have investigated photosensitizing properties for porphrazine and eleven of its related derivatives based on time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. The modles have been divided into two categories based on the existence of CN functional group in one category but not in the other one. The other functional groups include H, CH3, F, CF3, C6H5, and C6F5 counterparts. The...
