In the DFT-ulg method of Kim et al.[1], the correction term takes the form:

where the first two summations are over all atoms in the unit cell and the third summation is over all translations of the unit cell where the prime indicates that for .

  • VDW_RADIUS=50.0 : cutoff radius (in ) for pair interactions
  • VDW_S6=0.7012 : global scaling factor (available in VASP.5.3.5 and later)
  • VDW_D=0.6966 : damping parameter
  • VDW_C6=[real array] : parameters () for each species defined in the POSCAR file
  • VDW_R0=[real array] : parameters () for each species defined in the POSCAR file
  • LVDW_EWALD=.FALSE. : the lattice summation in expression is computed by means of Ewald's summation (.TRUE. ) or via a real space summation over all atomic pairs within cutoff radius VDW_RADIUS (.FALSE.). (available in VASP.5.3.5 and later)
