Assessment of dressed time-dependent density-functional theory for the low-lying valence states of 28 organic chromophores.
Almost all time-dependent d.-functional theory (TDDFT) calcns. of excited states make use of the adiabatic approxn., which implies a frequency-independent exchange-correlation kernel that limits applications to one-hole/one-particle states. To remedy this problem, Maitra et al. proposed dressed TDDFT (D-TDDFT), which includes explicit two-hole/two-particle states by adding a frequency-dependent term to adiabatic TDDFT. This paper offers the first extensive test of D-TDDFT, and its ability to represent excitation energies in a general fashion. We present D-TDDFT excited states for 28 chromophores and compare them with the benchmark results of Schreiber et al. We find the choice of functional used for the A-TDDFT step to be crit. for positioning the 1h1p states with respect to the 2h2p states. We observe that D-TDDFT without HF exchange increases the error in excitations already underestimated by A-TDDFT. This problem is largely remedied by implementation of D-TDDFT including Hartree-Fock exchange. [on SciFinder(R)]
