Description: Antiferromagnetic (AFM) configuration for NiO in the GGA+Ueff (Dudarev's) approach ; PBE functional
In the Dudarev method, a Hubbard effective parameter Ueff = U - J is used. Concretely, the J value is considered equal to 0, and Ueff = U. For more details read the page on the LDAUTYPE-tag .
Exercise : Study the change of the magnetic moment of Ni atoms and the DOS by varying the Ueff value.

To check the results obtained with this approach, they can be compared to those determined with a hybrid approach. The magnetic moment for the Ni atoms and the Eg calculated using this approach are 1.67 μB and 3.97 eV respectively.
