Abstract
Abstract We extend the restored-regularized Strongly Constrained and Appropriately Normed (r2SCAN) nonempirical exchange-correlation functional to the Range-Separation eXchange (RSX) scheme, RSX-r2SCAN, where the range-separation parameter (ω) is obtained by applying a first-principles constraint, thus not relying on any empirical fitting. The corresponding exchange-correlation hybrid (i.e., RSX-r2SCAN0) and double-hybrid (i.e., RSX-r2SCAN-QIDH) versions are also built following this procedure, concomitantly assessing all the models on relevant systems (e.g., increasingly larger clusters of noninteracting He atoms) and a large data set of ionization potentials (e.g., GW100). The assessment is also done using the GMTKN55 database for general main-group thermochemistry, kinetics, and noncovalent interactions, along with the WTMAD-2 error metric and a more recent one called WTMAD-4. The assessment is completed with a detailed analysis of some of the GMTKN55 subsets most affected by self-interaction errors. Finally, the models are coupled to the VV10 correlation energy functional (RSX-r2SCAN-NL, r2SCAN0-NL, and RSX-r2SCAN-QIDH-NL) for nonlocal and long-range electronic effects, to accurately address noncovalently bound systems as well.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation invites new and original contributions with the understanding that, if accepted, they will not be published elsewhere. Papers reporting new theories, methodology, and/or important applications in quantum electronic structure, molecular dynamics, and statistical mechanics are appropriate for submission to this Journal. Specific topics include advances in or applications of ab initio quantum mechanics, density functional theory, design and properties of new materials, surface science, Monte Carlo simulations, solvation models, QM/MM calculations, biomolecular structure prediction, and molecular dynamics in the broadest sense including gas-phase dynamics, ab initio dynamics, biomolecular dynamics, and protein folding. The Journal does not consider papers that are straightforward applications of known methods including DFT and molecular dynamics. The Journal favors submissions that include advances in theory or methodology with applications to compelling problems.
