LRHFCALC = .TRUE. | .FALSE.
Default: LRHFCALC = .FALSE. 

Description: LRHFCALC selects the decomposition of the exchange functional for calculations with the range-separated hybrid RSHX functional.


If LRHFCALC=.TRUE. the exchange operator is decomposed into short-range LDA (or PBE) and long-range Hartree-Fock for calculations with the range-separated hybrid RSHX functional.[1][2] The screening parameter is specified by means of the HFSCREEN tag.


Mind:
  • By default, AEXX=1 for the RSHX functional, but AEXX can be set to another value.
  • Only LDA (GGA=CA or PZ) or PBE (GGA=PE) can be used for the short-range density functional part.
