Screened-exchange density functionals with broad accuracy for chemistry and solid-state physics.

چکیده
We present two new exchange-correlation functionals for hybrid Kohn-Sham electronic structure calculations based on the nonseparable functional form introduced recently in the N12 and MN12-L functionals but now with the addition of screened Hartree-Fock exchange. The first functional depends on the density and the density gradient and is called N12-SX; the second functional depends on the density, the density gradient, and the kinetic energy density and is called MN12-SX. Both new functionals include a portion of the Hartree-Fock exchange at short-range, but Hartree-Fock exchange is screened at long range. The accuracies of the two new functionals are compared to those of the recent N12 and MN12-L local functionals to show the effect of adding screened exchange, are compared to the previously best available screened exchange functional, HSE06, and are compared to the best available global-hybrid generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and to a high-performance long-range-corrected meta-GGA.

A meta-GGA level screened range-separated hybrid functional by employing short range Hartree-Fock with a long range semilocal functional.
The range-separated hybrid density functionals are very successful in describing a wide range of molecular and solid-state properties accurately. In principle, such functionals are designed from spherically averaged or system averaged as well as reverse engineered exchange holes. In the present attempt, the screened range-separated hybrid functional scheme has been applied to the meta-GGA rung ...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Heyd-Scuseria-Ernzerhof density functional parameter space.
The Heyd-Scuseria-Ernzerhof (HSE) density functionals are popular for their ability to improve upon the accuracy of standard semilocal functionals such as Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE), particularly for semiconductor band gaps. They also have a reduced computational cost compared to hybrid functionals, which results from the restriction of Fock exchange calculations to small inter-electron separ...
متن کاملScreened hybrid density functionals applied to solids.
Hybrid Fock exchange/density functional theory functionals have shown to be very successful in describing a wide range of molecular properties. For periodic systems, however, the long-range nature of the Fock exchange interaction and the resultant large computational requirements present a major drawback. This is especially true for metallic systems, which require a dense Brillouin zone samplin...
متن کاملImplementation of screened hybrid functionals based on the Yukawa potential within the LAPW basis set
The implementation of screened hybrid functionals into the WIEN2K code, which is based on the linearized augmented plane wave (LAPW) basis set, is reported. The Hartree-Fock exchange energy and potential are screened by means of the Yukawa potential as proposed by Bylander and Kleinman [D. M. Bylander and L. Kleinman, Phys. Rev. B 41, 7868 (1990)] for the calculation of the electronic structure...

This work assesses the Heyd-Scuseria-Ernzerhof HSE screened Coulomb hybrid density functional for the prediction of lattice constants and band gaps using a set of 40 simple and binary semiconductors. An extensive analysis of both basis set and relativistic effects is given. Results are compared with established pure density functionals. For lattice constants, HSE outperforms local spin-density ...
