Towards accurate orbital-free simulations: A generalized gradient approximation for the noninteracting free energy density functional

Journal Article Luo, K. ; Karasiev, V. V. ; Trickey, S. B. - Physical Review B

For orbital-free ab initio molecular dynamics, especially on systems in extreme thermodynamic conditions, we provide the first pseudo-potential-adapted generalized gradient approximation (GGA) functional for the non-interacting free energy. This is achieved by systematic finite-temperature extension of our recent LKT ground state non-interacting kinetic energy GGA functional (Phys. Rev. B 98, 041111(R) (2018)). We test the performance of the new functional first via static lattice calculations on crystalline aluminum and silicon. Then we compare deuterium equation of state results against both path-integral Monte Carlo and conventional (orbital-dependent) Kohn-Sham results. The new functional, denoted LKTF, outperforms the previous best semi-local free energymore »« less

A simple generalized gradient approximation for the noninteracting kinetic energy density functional

Journal Article Luo, Kai ; Karasiev, Valentin V. ; Trickey, S. B. - Physical Review B

A simple, novel, non-empirical, constraint-based orbital-free generalized gradient approximation (GGA) non-interacting kinetic energy density functional is presented along with illustrative applications. The innovation is adaptation of constraint-based construction to the essential properties of pseudo-densities from the pseudo-potentials that are essential in plane-wave-basis ab initio molecular dynamics. This contrasts with constraining to the qualitatively different Kato-cusp-condition densities. The single parameter in the new functional is calibrated by satisfying Pauli potential positivity constraints for pseudo-atom densities. Finally, in static lattice tests on simple metals and semiconductors, the new LKT functional outperforms the previous best constraint-based GGA functional, VT84F (Phys. Rev. B 88,more »« less

{ital Generalized} generalized gradient approximation: An improved density-functional theory for accurate orbital eigenvalues

Journal Article Hua, X ; Chen, X ; Goddard, III, W A - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter

The generalized gradient approximation (GGA) for the exchange functional in conjunction with accurate expressions for the correlation functional have led to numerous applications in which density-functional theory (DFT) provides structures, bond energies, and reaction activation energies in excellent agreement with the most accurate {ital ab initio} calculations and with the experiment. However, the orbital energies that arise from the Kohn-Sham auxiliary equations of DFT may differ by a factor of 2 from the ionization potentials, indicating that excitation energies and properties involving sums over excited states (nonlinear-optical properties, van der Waals attraction) may be in serious error. We propose hereinmore »« less

Solvation free energy calculations using continuum dielectric model for the solvent and gradient-corrected density functional theory for the solute

Journal Article Tawa, G J ; Martin, R L ; Pratt, L R ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry

Electrostatic solvation free energies are calculated using a self consistent reaction field (SCRF) procedure that combines a continuum dielectric model of the solvent with both Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) for the solute. Several molecules are studied in aqueous solution. They comprise three groups: nonpolar neutral, polar neutral, and ionic. The calculated values of {Delta}G{sup e1} are sensitive to the atomic radii used to define the solute molecular surface, particularly to the value of the hydrogen radius. However, the values of {Delta}G{sup e1} exhibit reasonable correlation with experiment when a previously determined, physically motivated set of atomic radiimore »« less
