In this book, the authors present the doubly hybrid density functionals (DHDFs), which dramatically improve the accuracy for predictions of critical properties by including the role of the virtual (unoccupied) orbitals. The authors not only discuss the theoretical bases of three classes of DHDFs but also demonstrate their performance using some well-established benchmarking data sets.SpringerBriefs in molecular science.Density functionalsDensity functionals.531.14Zhang Igor Yingauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1058811Xu XinMiFhGGMiFhGGBOOK9910298461903321A New-Generation Density Functional2502638UNINA
