5 The role of computation Paul Dirac, 1929 The underlying physical laws necessary for the mathematical theory of a large part of physics and the whole of chemistry are thus completely known, and the difficulty is only that the exact application of these laws leads to equations much too complicated to be soluble.
6 The role of computation Paul Dirac, 1929 The underlying physical laws necessary for the mathematical theory of a large part of physics and the whole of chemistry are thus completely known, and the difficulty is only that the exact application of these laws leads to equations much too complicated to be soluble. It therefore becomes desirable that approximate practical methods of applying quantum mechanics should be developed, which can lead to an explanation of the main features of complex atomic systems without too much computation.
7 The role of computation Emergent Phenomena The behavior of large and complex aggregates of elementary particles, it turns out, is not to be understood in terms of simple extrapolation of the properties of a few particles. Instead, at each level of complexity entirely new properties appear, and the understanding of the new bevaviors requires research which I think is as fundamental in its nature as any other
8 First-principles approach Interacting electrons in an external potential (given by the nuclei) Ĥ = X I X i ~ 2 2m e r 2 i ~ 2 2M I r 2 I X i,i X I6=J Z I e 2 r i R I Z I Z J e 2 R I R J X i6=j e 2 r i r j 8
9 First-principles approach Interacting electrons in an external potential (given by the nuclei) Ĥ = X I X i ~ 2 2m e r 2 i ~ 2 2M I r 2 I X i,i X I6=J Z I e 2 r i R I Z I Z J e 2 R I R J X i6=j e 2 r i r j Ĥ >= E > Many-body Schrödinger equation 9
10 First-principles approach Interacting electrons in an external potential (given by the nuclei) Ĥ = X I X i ~ 2 2m e r 2 i ~ 2 2M I r 2 I X i,i X I6=J Z I e 2 r i R I Z I Z J e 2 R I R J X i6=j e 2 r i r j Omitting this term, the nuclei are a fixed external potential acting on the electrons Essential for charge neutrality - classical term that is added to the electronic part Ĥ >= E > Easy to write, too difficult to solve 10
11 Many-body Schrödinger equation 11 From Martijn Marsman
12 Density functional theory Hohenberg-Kohn (1964) The total energy of the ground-state of a many-body system is a unique functional of the particle density E 0 = E[(r)] The functional has its minimum relative to variations of the particle δn0(r) at the equilibrium density n0(r) E 0 = E[(r)] = min{e[(r)]} E[n(r)] n(r) n(r)=n0 (r) =0 12
13 Density functional theory The Kohn-Sham Ansatz (1965) n 0 (r) = X X i i (r) 2 Replace original many-body problem with an independent electron problem - that can be solved E KS = 1 2 X X r i 2 + i Z drv ext (r)n(r)+e H [n]+e II + E xc [n] Equations for independent particles - soluble Exchange-Correlation Functional - Exact theory but unknown functional 13
14 Density functional theory The Kohn-Sham (1965) n 0 (r) = X X i i (r) 2 E KS = 1 2 X X r i 2 + Z drv ext (r)n(r)+e H [n]+e II + E xc [n] i Assuming a form for Exc[n] Minimizing energy (with constraints) -> Kohn-Sham Eqs. E KS i =0 < i 0 i > = i,j, 0 required by the Exclusion principle for independent particles [ 1 2 r2 + V KS (r)] i (r) =" i i (r) 14
15 Approximations to EXC[n] Local Density Approximation - LDA - Assume the functional is the same as a model problem the homogeneous electron gas E LDA xc [n] = Z E LDA x [n] = 3 4 drn(r)" xc (n) 3 1/3 Z n(r) 4/3 dr E xc = E x + E c - E XC has been calculated as a function of density using quantum Monte Carlo methods Ceperley-Alder (1980) and parameterized by Perdew-Zunger (1981) Generalized Gradient approximation - GGA - Various theoretical improvements for electron density that varies in space E GGA xc [n] = Z drn(r)" xc (n, rn) PBE: J. P. Perdew, K. Burke, and M. Ernzerhof (1996) 15
16 Self-consistent Kohn-Sham Equations initial guess, density n construct K-S potential V KS (r) =V ext (r)+ E H n(r, ) + E xc n(r, ) = V ext (r)+v H (r)+v xc (r) solve K-S equations [ 1 2 r2 + V KS (r)] i (r) =" i i (r) obtain new density n(r) = X X i i (r) 2 No is n self-consistent? Yes 16 output total energy, forces, eigenvalues,.
