Dear Prof. Tran, I mean I am using SCAN+rVV10. With this potential I have achieved an accurate band gap of ~ 1.32 eV for MoSe2 while with HSE06 I have obtained band gap ~ 1.5 eV. Any comments on this? with regards, On Sun, 30 Jul 2023 at 14:23, wrote: > In general, both SCAN

In general, both SCAN and HSE06 are not supposed to describe properly van der Waals interactions. You can probably find a certain number of DFT papers on chalcogenides providing more detailed answers. On 29.07.2023 10:31, shamik chakrabarti wrote: Dear Wien2k users, We know

Dear Wien2k users, We know XC_SCAN is a very useful potential for calculating total energy / electronic structure for chalcogenides. However, whether HSE06 would be equally useful? If yes, then how? as we know that HSE06 considers exact exchange but do not include the Vanderwall I
