摘要
Recently, Tao and Mo (TM) proposed an accurate nonempirical meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA). To better understand the performance of this functional, here we make a comparative study of the combinations of the TM exchange part with the original TPSS correlation (TMTPSS) and the modified TPSS correlation (TM) on a variety of solids and surfaces. Specifically, we compare the performance of these two functionals on 22 lattice constants and bulk moduli, 30 band gaps of semiconductors, 7 cohesive energies, and surface exchange-correlation energies of simple metals with r(s) ranging from 2 to 3 bohr.
