چکیده

By incorporating the improved empirical atom-atom dispersion corrections from DFT-D3 [Grimme, S.; Antony, J.; Ehrlich, S.; Krieg, H. J. Chem. Phys.2010, 132, 154104], two long-range corrected (LC) hybrid density functionals are proposed. Our resulting LC hybrid functionals, ωM06-D3 and ωB97X-D3, are shown to be accurate for a very wide range of applications, such as thermochemistry, kinetics, noncovalent interactions, frontier orbital energies, fundamental gaps, and long-range charge-transfer excitations, when compared with common global and LC hybrid functionals. Relative to ωB97X-D [Chai, J.-D.; Head-Gordon, M. Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys.2008, 10, 6615], ωB97X-D3 (reoptimization of ωB97X-D with improved dispersion corrections) is shown to be superior for nonbonded interactions, and similar in performance for bonded interactions, while ωM06-D3 is shown to be superior for general applications.

Long-range corrected hybrid density functionals with damped atom-atom dispersion corrections.

We report re-optimization of a recently proposed long-range corrected (LC) hybrid density functional [J.-D. Chai and M. Head-Gordon, J. Chem. Phys., 2008, 128, 084106] to include empirical atom-atom dispersion corrections. The resulting functional, omegaB97X-D yields satisfactory accuracy for thermochemistry, kinetics, and non-covalent interactions. Tests show that for non-covalent systems, ome...

Double-hybrid density functionals with long-range dispersion corrections: higher accuracy and extended applicability.

The objective of this work is the further systematic improvement of the accuracy of Double-Hybrid Density Functionals (DHDF) that add non-local electron correlation effects to a standard hybrid functional by second-order perturbation theory (S. Grimme, J. Chem. Phys., 2006, 124, 034108). The only known shortcoming of these generally highly accurate functionals is an underestimation of the long-...

Dispersion Interactions with Density-Functional Theory: Benchmarking Semiempirical and Interatomic Pairwise Corrected Density Functionals.

We present a comparative assessment of the accuracy of two different approaches for evaluating dispersion interactions: interatomic pairwise corrections and semiempirical meta-generalized-gradient-approximation (meta-GGA)-based functionals. This is achieved by employing conventional (semi)local and (screened-)hybrid functionals, as well as semiempirical hybrid and nonhybrid meta-GGA functionals...

Symmetry-adapted perturbation theory with Kohn-Sham orbitals using non-empirically tuned, long-range-corrected density functionals.

The performance of second-order symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT) calculations using Kohn-Sham (KS) orbitals is evaluated against benchmark results for intermolecular interactions. Unlike previous studies of this "SAPT(KS)" methodology, the present study uses non-empirically tuned long-range corrected (LRC) functionals for the monomers. The proper v xc (r)→0 asymptotic limit is achiev...

London dispersion forces by range-separated hybrid density functional with second order perturbational corrections: the case of rare gas complexes.

A satisfactory account of the van der Waals (vdW) (London dispersion) forces is, in general not possible by the Kohn-Sham method using standard local, semilocal generalized gradient approximation (GGA), or meta-GGA density functionals. The recently proposed range-separated hybrid (RSH) approach, supplemented by second order perturbational corrections (MP2) to include long-range dynamic correlat...
