Since the development of the nonlocal correlation functional vdW-DF, the family of van der Waals density functionals has grown to better describe a wide variety of systems. A recent generation of the vdW-DF family, vdW-DF3, featured a…
We investigate the van der Waals interactions in solid molecular hydrogen structures. We calculate enthalpy and the Gibbs free energy to obtain zero and finite temperature phase diagrams, respectively. We employ density functional theory…
The widely-used Kohn-Sham implementation of density functional theory (DFT) maps a system of interacting electrons onto an auxiliary non-interacting one and is presumably inaccurate for strongly correlated materials. We present a concrete…
Ab initio description of point defects in semiconductors, characterized by in-gap states of significant multideterminant character, presents a longstanding theoretical challenge for density functional theory (DFT) methods. In this study, we…
The solvation structures and ion dynamics of CaCl$_2$ aqueous electrolytes have been investigated using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations and molecular dynamics simulations with deep learning potentials. We found multiple solvation…
In order to obtain a reasonably accurate and easily implemented approach to many-electron calculations, we will develop a new Density Functional Theory (DFT). Specifically, we derive an approximation to electron density, the first term of…
A general set of methods is presented for calculating chemical potentials in solid and liquid mixtures using {\em ab initio} techniques based on density functional theory (DFT). The methods are designed to give an {\em ab initio} approach…
By including a fraction of exact exchange (EXX), hybrid functionals reduce the self-interaction error in semi-local density functional theory (DFT), and thereby furnish a more accurate and reliable description of the electronic structure in…
A central aim of multiscale modeling is to use results from the Schr\"odinger Equation to predict phenomenology on length scales that far exceed those of typical molecular correlations. In this work, we present a new approach rooted in…
Plane-wave electronic-structure predictions based upon orbital-dependent density-functional theory (OD-DFT) approximations, such as hybrid density-functional methods and self-interaction density-functional corrections, are severely affected…
The structure of dilute electrolyte solutions close to a surface carrying a spatially inhomogeneous surface charge distribution is investigated by means of classical density functional theory (DFT) within the approach of fundamental measure…
A subsystem approach for obtaining electron binding energies in the valence region and apply it to the case of halide ions (X$^-$, X = F-At) in water. This approach is based on electronic structure calculations combining the relativistic…
Density functional theory (DFT), the most widely adopted method in modern computational chemistry, fails to describe accurately the electronic structure of strongly correlated systems. Here we show that DFT can be formally and practically…
We combine techniques from quantum and from classical density functional theory (DFT) to describe electron-ion mixtures. For homogeneous systems, we show how to calculate ion-ion and ion-electron correlation functions within Chihara's…
Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures have attracted intense interest worldwide as they offer several routes to design materials with novel features and wide-ranging applications. Unfortunately, at present, vdW heterostructures are…
Adiabatic mixed quantum/classical molecular dynamics simulations were used to generate snapshots of the hydrated electron (e-) in liquid water at 300 K. Water cluster anions that include two complete solvation shells centered on the e- were…
We present an accurate local density-functional for electronic-structure calculations within the density functional theory (DFT). The functional is derived by analyzing the structure of the standard perturbative expansion of the correlation…
We present an approach for computing long-range van der Waals (vdW) interactions between complex molecular systems and arbitrarily shaped macroscopic bodies, melding atomistic treatments of electronic fluctuations based on density…
There is enormous recent interest in weak, van der Waals-type (vdW) interactions due to their fundamental relevance for two-dimensional materials and the so-called vdW heterostructures. Tackling this problem using computer simulation is…
The structures of dilute electrolyte solutions close to non-uniformly charged planar substrates are systematically studied within the entire spectrum of microscopic to macroscopic length scales by means of a unified classical density…
