Electronic and Hydrogen Storage Properties of Li-Terminated Linear Boron Chains Studied by TAO-DFT
Abstract It has been extremely difficult for conventional computational approaches to reliably predict the properties of multi-reference systems (i.e., systems possessing radical character) at the nanoscale. To resolve this, we employ thermally-assisted-occupation density functional theory (TAO-DFT)...
