Re: [SIESTA-L] Did anyone run atomization energy for small organicmaterial?

Zhanyu, There is a very nice review by Roberto Rovesi, the main author of Crystal, about DFT calculations using Crystal - I can send it to you if you want, I've got in pdf format. Since Crystal uses localized basis sets as well (I guess), there is the need of BSSE as well, and there are mentions o

Hi, nzy As Oleksandr has mentioned, incomplete basis set may give higher groundstate energy than the real system. A ghost atom in calculation contributes the system with its PAOs spanned in real space but does not influnce total potential V(r). So calculations with same geometry but different gho

Hi Oleksandr, Can you explain a little more about how to add the BSSE corrections? It seems it's not mentioned in the siesta manual. Thanks! Zhanyu On 2/8/07, Oleksandr Voznyy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: BSSE corrections are the key to eliminate this error - lone atoms would get more complete

BSSE corrections are the key to eliminate this error - lone atoms would get more complete basis, so their energy will become lower and the atomization energy as well. This is absolutely not hard to calculate them, you just use the same input as for the whole molecule, but only use something like
