The amount of LDA correlation included in the hybrid functional can be specified through the {{TAG|ALDAC}}-tag.

The amount of gradient correction to the exchange and the correlation contributions can be set indepently, however (some [[list_of_hybrid_functionals|popular hybride functionals]] for instance use only 0.8 of the gradient contribition to the exchange). The GGA flags {{TAG|AGGAX}} and {{TAG|AGGAC}} are only used if GGA is already selected (for LDA type calculations no gradient correction will be added regardless of values is used for {{TAG|AGGAX}} and {{TAG|AGGAC}}).

AGGAX = [real] 

Default: AGGAX = 1.0-AEXX if LHFCALC=.TRUE.
= 1.0 if LHFCALC=.FALSE.

Description: AGGAX is a parameter that multiplies the gradient correction in the GGA exchange functional.


AGGAX can be used as the fraction of gradient correction in the GGA exchange in a Hartree-Fock/GGA hybrid functional.

Important: AGGAX can be used only if LHFCALC=.TRUE.
Mind:
  • AGGAX is implemented for all functionals listed at GGA except AM05.
  • AGGAX is implemented for the functionals from Libxc (see LIBXC1 for details).
