摘要: Recently we developed a nonlocal van der Waals density functional (VV09) that has simple and well-behaved analytic form. In this article, report self-consistent implementation of VV09 with an atom-centered basis set. We compute binding energies for diverse benchmark set find performs well in combination Hartree–Fock exchange. compare its precursor, discuss likely sources inaccuracies both models, identify some aspects the methodology where further refinements are desirable.
