Sayan Bhowmik, John E. Pask, Andrew J. Medford, Phanish Suryanarayana

AI总结:

本文提出一种基于Chebyshev谱方法的原子结构计算格式,在赝势Kohn-Sham密度泛函理论中仅需约200个网格点即可实现1微Hartree的本征值精度,适用于Z=1到83的元素。

摘要:

我们提出了一种用于赝势Kohn-Sham密度泛函理论中原子结构计算的谱格式。具体而言,在对径向坐标应用指数变换后,我们在Chebyshev网格上采用全局多项式插值,使用Chebyshev微分矩阵近似导数算子,并使用Clenshaw-Curtis求积法进行积分。我们通过对代表性原子进行自旋极化和非自旋极化计算,同时考虑局域、半局域和杂化交换关联泛函,展示了该格式的精度和效率。特别是,我们发现对于原子序数从Z = 1到83的整个元素周期表中的优化模守恒Vanderbilt赝势,约200个网格点足以在本征值上达到1微Hartree的精度。

英文摘要:

We present a spectral scheme for atomic structure calculations in pseudopotential Kohn-Sham density functional theory. In particular, after applying an exponential transformation of the radial coordinates, we employ global polynomial interpolation on a Chebyshev grid, with derivative operators approximated using the Chebyshev differentiation matrix, and integrations using Clenshaw-Curtis quadrature. We demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the scheme through spin-polarized and unpolarized calculations for representative atoms, while considering local, semilocal, and hybrid exchange-correlation functionals. In particular, we find that $\mathcal{O}$(200) grid points are sufficient to achieve an accuracy of 1 microhartree in the eigenvalues for optimized norm conserving Vanderbilt pseudopotentials spanning the periodic table from atomic number $Z = 1$ to $83$.
