Structure and Dynamics of Liquid Water from ab Initio Molecular Dynamics—Comparison of BLYP, PBE, and revPBE Density Functionals with and without van der Waals Corrections
Open accessAbstract
We investigate the accuracy provided by different treatments of the exchange and correlation effects, in particular the London dispersion forces, on the properties of liquid water using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations with density functional theory. The lack of London dispersion forces in generalized gradient approximations (GGAs) is remedied by means of dispersion-corrected atom-centered potentials (DCACPs) or damped atom-pairwise dispersion corrections of the C6R(-6) form. We compare results from simulations using GGA density functionals (BLYP, PBE, and revPBE) with data from their van der Waals (vdW) corrected counterparts. As pointed out previously, all vdW-corrected BLYP simulations give rise to highly mobile water whose softened structure is closer to experimental data than the one predicted by the bare BLYP functional. Including vdW interactions in the PBE functional, on the other hand, has little influence on both structural and dynamical properties of water. Augmenting the revPBE functional with either damped atom-pairwise dispersion corrections or DCACP evokes opposite behaviors. The former further softens the already under-structured revPBE water, whereas the latter makes it more glassy. These results demonstrate the delicacy needed in describing weak interactions in molecular liquids.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
