Becke-Johnson交换势的普适修正

Universal correction for the Becke-Johnson exchange potential

E. Rasanen, S. Pittalis, C. Proetto

摘要:

Becke-Johnson交换势[J.Chem.Phys.124,221101(2006)]已成功用于密度泛函理论内的电子结构计算。然而,在具有非库仑外部电势的系统中,或者在存在外部磁场或电场的情况下,电势的原始形式可能会显著地失效。在这里,我们通过(i)加强规范不变性和(ii)使其对任何单电子系统都是精确的,对贝克-约翰逊近似提供了一个与系统无关的修正。由此产生的近似,然后更好地设计处理载流状态,并恢复正确的渐近行为的系统与任何数量的电子。对所得到的校正交换势的测试表明,对于电场中的氢链和磁场中的四电子谐振子,结果非常好。

英文摘要:

The Becke-Johnson exchange potential [J. Chem. Phys. 124, 221101 (2006)] has been successfully used in electronic structure calculations within density-functional theory. However, in its original form the potential may dramatically fail in systems with non-Coulombic external potentials, or in the presence of external magnetic or electric fields. Here, we provide a system-independent correction to the Becke-Johnson approximation by (i) enforcing its gauge invariance and (ii) making it exact for any single-electron system. The resulting approximation is then better designed to deal with current-carrying states, and recovers the correct asymptotic behavior for systems with any number of electrons. Tests of the resulting corrected exchange potential show very good results for a Hydrogen chain in an electric field and for a four-electron harmonium in a magnetic field.
