Computational Quantum Chemical Studies on Radicals

Peter Rudolf Tentscher

Radicals play an important role in many areas of chemistry, such as atmospheric, aquatic, polymer, and biological, to name a few. Radicals are often highly reactive species which are short-lived and therefore harder to study by experimental techniques. In ...

A Caveat on SCC-DFTB and Non-covalent Interactions Involving Sulfur Atoms

Riccardo Petraglia

Accurate modeling of non-covalent interactions involving sulfur today is ubiquitous, particularly with regards to the role played by sulfur-containing heterocycles in the field of organic electronics. The density functional tight binding (DFTB) method offe ...

Bridging Static and Dynamical Descriptions of Chemical Reactions: An ab Initio Study of CO2 Interacting with Water Molecules

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci

Extracting reliable thermochemical parameters from molecular dynamics simulations of chemical reactions, although based on ab initio methods, is generally hampered by difficulties in reproducing the results and controlling the statistical errors. This is a ...

Accurate potential energy surfaces with a DFT plus U(R) approach

Nicola Marzari

We introduce an improvement to the Hubbard U augmented density functional approach known as DFT+U that incorporates variations in the value of self-consistently calculated, linear-response U with changes in geometry. This approach overcomes the one major s ...

Relativistic effects in spectroscopy and photophysics of heavy-metal complexes illustrated by spin–orbit calculations of [Re(imidazole)(CO)3(phen)]+

Majed Chergui

Spin–orbit coupling (SOC) is an essential factor in photophysics of heavy transition metal com- plexes. By enabling efficient population of the lowest triplet state and its strong emission, it gives rise to a very interesting photophysical behavior and und ...

Dispersion-Corrected Atom-Centered Potentials for Phosphorous

Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, I-Chun Lin

Dispersion-corrected atom-centered; potentials (DCACPs) for the element phosphorus were generated and tested for the BLYP, BP, and PBE generalized gradient approximations of the exchange-correlation functional. The accuracy and transferability of the DCACP ...

Li-related defects in ZnO : hybrid functional calculations

Nava Setter, Alfredo Pasquarello, Alexander Tagantsev, Audrius Alkauskas, Alexandra Sarabando de Carvalho

Hybrid density functional calculations are used to model substitutional lithium (LiZn) and interstitial lithium (Lii) defects in ZnO. The calculated transition levels and formation energies are compared to those obtained using a semilocal density functiona ...
