I got confused about the LDA-potential
Posted: Thu Jul 31, 2008 9:05 am
Dear Sir or Madam,
Is there anybody who could give me a favour? Actually, the LDA does not include the long-range interaction. But, why deos the calculation with VASP using LDA-PAW potential still give a configuration which looks like the van der Waals state? I tested the Ar-Ar and Kr-Kr dimers.
Thanks so much!
