Self-consistent-charge density-functional tight-binding method for simulations of complex materials properties

TL;DR: In this paper, an extension of the tight-binding (TB) approach to improve total energies, forces, and transferability is presented. The method is based on a second-order expansion of the Kohn-Sham total energy in density-functional theory (DFT) with respect to charge density fluctuations.
Journal ArticleDOI

DFTB+, a sparse matrix-based implementation of the DFTB method.

TL;DR: A new Fortran 95 implementation of the DFTB (density functional-based tight binding) method has been developed, where the sparsity of theDFTB system of equations has been exploited.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Self‐Consistent Charge Density‐Functional Based Tight‐Binding Method for Predictive Materials Simulations in Physics, Chemistry and Biology

TL;DR: Elstner et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a self-consistent redistribution of Mulliken charges (SCC) approach to approximate the Kohn-Sham total energy in density functional theory with respect to charge density fluctuations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tight-binding approach to time-dependent density-functional response theory

TL;DR: Elstner et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed an extension of the selfconsistent charge-density-functional tight-binding (SCC-DFTB) method, which allows the calculation of the optical properties of finite systems within time-dependent density-functional response theory (TD-DFRT).
Journal ArticleDOI

A Self-Consistent Charge Density-Functional Based Tight-Binding Scheme for Large Biomolecules

TL;DR: In this article, a self-consistent charge density-functional based tight-binding (SCC-DFTB) scheme is proposed to handle large-scale quantum molecular dynamic simulations in biological systems.
