Abstract
Detailed derivation of the analytical, reciprocal-space approach of Hessian calculation within the self-consistent-charge density-functional based tight-binding framework (SCC-DFTB) is presented. This approach provides an accurate and efficient way for obtaining the SCC-DFTB Hessian of periodic systems. Its superiority with respect to the traditional numerical force differentiation method is demonstrated for doped graphene, graphene nanoribbons, boron-nitride nanotubes, bulk zinc-oxide, and other systems.
