A new hybrid functional including a meta-GGA approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this Letter we propose a new hybrid exchange–correlation functional, in which a recently developed exchange (mPBE) and a meta-GGA correlation (KCIS) are integrated in a hybrid Hartree–Fock/Density Functional Theory scheme. In such approach only one, or two in the G2-optimized version, parameters are adjusted on experimental data, all the others being derived from purely theoretical considerations. The results obtained for a set of molecular properties, including van der Waals and H-bonded complexes, are satisfactory and not far from those delivered by the most reliable functionals including heavy parameterization. The way in which the functional is derived and the few empirical parameters used make the new exchange–correlational functional widely applicable. 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Energy landscapes of nucleophilic substitution reactions: A comparison of density functional theory and coupled cluster methods
We have carried out a detailed evaluation of the performance of all classes of density functional theory (DFT) for describing the potential energy surface (PES) of a wide range of nucleophilic substitution (SN2) reactions involving, amongst others, nucleophilic attack at carbon, nitrogen, silicon, and sulfur. In particular, we investigate the ability of the local density approximation (LDA), ge...
متن کاملEnergy decomposition scheme based on the generalized Kohn-Sham scheme.
In this paper, a new energy decomposition analysis scheme based on the generalized Kohn-Sham (GKS) and the localized molecular orbital energy decomposition analysis (LMO-EDA) scheme, named GKS-EDA, is proposed. The GKS-EDA scheme has a wide range of DFT functional adaptability compared to LMO-EDA. In the GKS-EDA scheme, the exchange, repulsion, and polarization terms are determined by DFT orbit...
متن کاملDensity Functional Theory in Transition-Metal Chemistry: Relative Energies of Low-Lying States of Iron Compounds and the Effect of Spatial Symmetry Breaking.
The ground and lower excited states of Fe2, Fe2(-), and FeO(+) were studied using a number of density functional theory (DFT) methods. Specific attention was paid to the relative state energies, the internuclear distances (re), and the harmonic vibrational frequencies (ωe). A number of factors influencing the calculated values of these properties were examined. These include basis sets, the nat...
متن کاملA New Hybrid Meta-Heuristics Approach to Solve the Parallel Machine Scheduling Problem Considering Human Resiliency Engineering
This paper proposes a mixed integer programming model to solve a non-identical parallel machine (NIPM) scheduling with sequence-dependent set-up times and human resiliency engineering. The presented mathematical model is formulated to consider human factors including Learning, Teamwork and Awareness. Moreover, processing time of jobs are assumed to be non-deterministic and dependent to their st...
متن کاملHow reliable are DFT transition structures? Comparison of GGA, hybrid-meta-GGA and meta-GGA functionals.
There have been many comparisons of computational methods applied to ground states, but studies of organic reactions usually require calculations on transition states, and these provide a different test of the methods. We present calculations of the geometries of nineteen covalent-bond forming transition states using HF and twelve different functionals, including GGA, hybrid-GGA and hybrid meta...
