Fundamental gaps of quantum dots on the cheap

Computational Physics 2019-04-03 v1 Materials Science

Abstract

We show that the fundamental gaps of quantum dots can be accurately estimated at the computational effort of a standard ground-state calculation supplemented with a non self-consistent step of negligible cost, all performed within density-functional theory at the level of the local-density approximation.
