Applications of KohnSham density functional theory to solids mostly employ semilocal approximations to the exchange-correlation energy,
such as the functional of Perdew, Burke, and Ernzerhof (PBE). 1
where the screening parameter w defines the separation range.
However, semi-local functionals have some important shortcomings.【半局域函数】
For instance,
(1) they systematically underestimate band gaps with respect to experiment. 2–4
(2) Also, semilocal functionals overestimate electron delocalization effects 【高估电子局域作用】and therefore fail for many d - and f -element compounds.
Recent studies have shown that hybrid density functionals, which include a portion of Hartree-Fock (HF) exchange, partially solve these problems.
However, HF exchange drastically increases the computational demand for calculations in periodic systems【HF非常耗时】.
An efficient alternative to conventional hybrids is the screened hybrid functional【屏蔽杂化泛函】 of Heyd, Scuseria, and Ernzerhof (HSE). 12–16
In HSE, the spatial decay of the HF exchange interaction 【HF交换项空间衰变】is accelerated by substitution of the full 1/r Coulomb potential with a screened one【全库伦势】.
This enables a substantial lowering of the computational cost for calculations in extended systems【与Roald的观点一致,extended systems】.
The HSE functional partitions 【分开/分割】the Coulomb potential for exchange into short-range (SR) and long-range (LR) components:
where the screening parameter w defines the separation range.
The exchange-correlation energy is then calculated as
where xx is the short-range HF exchange【短程作用HF交换项】, E PBE,SR x and xxx and xxx E PBE,LR x are the short-range and long-range components of the PBE exchange functional obtained by integration of the model PBE exchange hole, 13,17 and xxxx E PBE c is the PBE correlation energy.
The parameter a=1/4 is the HF mixing constant derived from perturbation theory.
18 Note that HSE may be viewed as an adiabatic【绝热的】 connection functional, 18 but only in the short-range portion of the potential.
There is no long-range HF exchange in HSE, only short-range HF.
For w=0 HSE reduces to the hybrid functional PBEh [also known as PBE0 (Ref. 19) or PBE1PBE (Ref. 20) in the literature], and
for w--- $\infty$ ω→∞ , HSE becomes identical with PBE.
21 HSE with a finite value of w can be regarded as an interpolation between these two limits [PBEh和PBE].
A comparative study of HSE and PBEh performance for solids was recently published. 22
The value of the screening parameter was originally selected based on molecular tests 12 and yielded excellent band gaps for solids.
15,16 However, the screening parameter ω=0.15bohr −1 quoted in our previous publications 11–16 is not the one used in the code.
Because of interpretation errors, was used instead of ω in the Hartree-Fock part of the code, whereas 2 1/3 ω was used in the PBE part both for short and long ranges (see recent Erratum to Ref. 12).
There is no a priori reason to use different screening parameters for PBE and HF exchange. Moreover, HSE is exact in the uniform electron gas limit only when WHF=WPBE ω HF =ω PBE .
In this work, we reexamine how the choice of the screening parameter ω affects the HSE performance when both screening parameters are the same.
Note that in previous publications 12–16 only the influence of screening parameter on enthalpies of formation was discussed. 12 To avoid confusion, we will here refer to the previous HSE version with as HSE03. The current version with
WHF=WPBE will here be denoted HSE06.

HFSCREEN= [real]
Default: none
HFSCREEN determines the range separation parameter in range separated hybrid functionals.
In combination with PBE potentials, attributing a value to HFSCREEN will switch from the PBE0 functional (in case LHFCALC=.TRUE.) to the closely related HSE03 or HSE06 functional [93,94,95].
The HSE03 and HSE06 functional replaces the slowly decaying long-ranged part of the Fock exchange, by the corresponding density functional counterpart.
The resulting expression for the exchange-correlation energy is given by:
As can be seen above, the separation of the electron-electron interaction into a short- and long-ranged part, labeled SR and LR respectively, is realized only in the exchange interactions.
Electronic correlation is represented by the corresponding part of the PBE density functional.
The decomposition of the Coulomb kernel is obtained using the following construction (HFSCREEN):
where
Note: It has been shown [93] that the optimum , controlling the range separation is approximately
Å
. To conform with the HSE06 functional you need to select (HFSCREEN=0.2) [93,94,95].
Using the decomposed Coulomb kernel and Equ. (6.59), one straightforwardly obtains:
The representation of the corresponding short-ranged Fock potential in reciprocal space is given by
Clearly, the only difference to the reciprocal space representation of the complete (undecomposed) Fock exchange potential, given by Equ. (6.63), is the second factor in the summand in Equ. (6.68), representing the complementary error function in reciprocal space.
The short-ranged PBE exchange energy and potential, and their long-ranged counterparts, are arrived at using the same decomposition [Equ. (6.66)], in accordance with Heyd et al. [93] It is easily seen from Equ. (6.66) that the long-range term becomes zero for , and the short-range contribution then equals the full Coulomb operator, whereas for
it is the other way around. Consequently, the two limiting cases of the HSE03/HSE06 functional [see Equ. (6.65)] are a true PBE0 functional for
, and a pure PBE calculation for
.
Note: A comprehensive study of the performance of the HSE03/HSE06 functional compared to the PBE and PBE0 functionals can be found in Ref. [99]. The B3LYP functional was investigated in Ref. [100]. Further applications of hybrid functionals to selected materials can be found in the following references: Ceria (Ref. [101]), lead chalcogenides (Ref. [102]), CO adsorption on metals (Refs. [103,104]), defects in ZnO (Ref. [105]), excitonic properties (Ref. [106]), SrTiO and BaTiO
(Ref. [107]).
Default: LTHOMAS=.FALSE.
If the flag LTHOMAS is set, a similar decomposition of the exchange functional into a long range and a short range part is used. This time, it is more convenient to write the decomposition in reciprocal space:
