Accurate description of van der Waals complexes by density functional theory including empirical corrections
TL;DR: The DFT‐D‐BLYP model seems to be even superior to standard MP2 treatments that systematically overbind, and the approach is suggested as a practical tool to describe the properties of many important van der Waals systems in chemistry.
