Improved Ground State Electronic Structure and Optical Dielectric Constants With a Semi-Local Exchange Functional — •Vojtěch Vlček1, Gerd Steinle-Neumann1, Linn Leppert1, Rickard Armiento2, and Stephan Kümmel11University of Bayreuth, Germany — 2Linköping University, Sweden

For a set of solids, we explore a recently developed generalized gradient exchange functional (AK13) that has two characteristic features: its enhancement factor diverges for large reduced density gradients s as sln(s) and its potential changes discontinuously at integer electron numbers. We apply the functional to semiconductors, Mott insulators, and ionic crystals and compare results for band structure and dielectric constants with a standard GGA. The AK13 functional provides a better description of the KS orbitals and we observe a qualitative improvement both in the bandgaps and in the optical dielectric constants, especially for the small gap semiconductors we explore (Ge, α-Sn, and CdO)
