Density functional methods have been applied to calculate the quadrupole splitting of a series of iron(II) spin crossover complexes. Experimental and calculated values are in reasonable agreement. In one case spin-orbit coupling is…
Density functional theory (DFT) provides a theoretical framework for efficient and fairly accurate calculations of the electronic structure of molecules and crystals. The main features of density functional theory are described and DFT…
Density functional theory (DFT) is an exact alternative formulation of quantum mechanics, in which it is possible to calculate the total energy, the spin and the charge density of many-electron systems in the ground state. In practice, it…
Temperature dependent nuclear inelastic-scattering (NIS) of synchrotron radiation was applied to investigate both spin states of the spin-crossover complex [Fe(tpa)(NCS)(2)] (tpa = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine). A remarkable increase of the…
Octahedral Fe$^{2+}$ molecules are particularly interesting as they often exhibit a spin-crossover transition. In spite of the many efforts aimed at assessing the performances of density functional theory for such systems, an…
The stability of high vs. low spin states of transition metal complexes has been interpreted by ligand field theory, which is a perturbation theory of the electron-electron interaction. The present first principles calculation of a series…
We study the spin-crossover molecule Fe(phen)$_2$(NCS)$_2$ using density functional theory (DFT) plus dynamical mean-field theory, which allows access to observables not attainable with traditional quantum chemical or electronic structure…
Ab initio computations within the density functional theory are reported for the spin cross-over complex, [Fe(btz)$_{2}$(NCS)$_{2}$], where 3d$^6$ Fe$^{II}$ is characterized by High Spin (HS t$_{2g}^4$, e$_g^2$) and Low Spin (LS t$_{2g}^6$,…
Density functional theory (DFT) including van der Waals weak interaction in conjunction with the so called rotational invariant DFT+U, where $U$ is the Hubbard interaction of the iron site, is used to show that the fluorinated spin…
An accurate description of the two-electron density, crucial for magnetic coupling in spin systems, provides in general a major challenge for density functional theory calculations. It affects, e.g., the calculated zero-field splitting…
We present a comparative study of the spatial distribution of the spin density (SD) of the ground state of CuCl2 using Density Functional Theory (DFT), quantum Monte Carlo (QMC), and post-Hartree-Fock wavefunction theory (WFT). A number of…
The spin-crossover in organometallic molecules constitutes one of the most promising routes towards the realization of molecular spintronic devices. In this article, we explore the hybridization-induced spin-crossover in metal-organic…

Iron complexes with a suitable ligand field undergo spin-crossover (SCO), which can be induced reversibly by temperature, pressure or even light. Therefore, these compounds are highly interesting candidates for optical information storage,…
The accurate description of open-shell molecules, in particular of transition metal complexes and clusters, is still an important challenge for quantum chemistry. While density-functional theory (DFT) is widely applied in this area, the…
DFT is used throughout nanoscience, especially when modeling spin-dependent properties that are important in spintronics. But standard quantum chemical methods (both CCSD(T) and self-consistent semilocal density functional calculations)…
The Hohenberg-Kohn theorem of density functional theory (DFT) for the case of electrons interacting with an external magnetic field (that couples to spin only) is examined in more detail than previously. A unexpected generalization is…
