Abstract

Non-expanded dispersion energies are calculated from time-dependent coupled-perturbed density functional theory (DFT) employing various non-hybrid and hybrid exchange-correlation potentials and suitable adiabatic local density approximations for the exchange-correlation kernel. Considering the dimer systems He 2, Ne 2, Ar 2, NeAr, NeHF, ArHF, (H 2) 2, (HF) 2, and (H 2O) 2 it is shown that the effects of intramonomer electron correlation on the dispersion energy are accurately reproduced with the PBE0AC exchange-correlation potential. In contrast, the uncoupled sum-over-states approximation yields inacceptable errors. These are mainly due to neglect of the Coulomb and exchange-correlation kernels and therefore, not substantially improved through an asymptotic correction of the exchange-correlation potential.
