LIBXC1_Pn = [real]
Description: LIBXC1_Pn, where allows to specify the values of the parameters of the functional implemented in Libxc that is called with LIBXC1.
For many of the functionals implemented in the library of exchange-correlation functionals Libxc[1][2][3] it is possible to modify the parameters if one does not want to use the default values. If a functional from Libxc has parameters that can be modified, then they are listed in OUTCAR below "Parameters of Libxc functionals:" as P (). LIBXC1_Pn and LIBXC2_Pn are for the functionals called with LIBXC1 and LIBXC2, respectively.
An example is given below for the GGA PBE functional[4] where the default parameters in exchange and in correlation are changed to and to get the PBEsol functional[5] (of course, the simpler way to use PBEsol from Libxc would be to call it directly with LIBXC1=GGA_X_PBE_SOL and LIBXC2=GGA_C_PBE_SOL).
GGA = LIBXC LIBXC1 = GGA_X_PBE # or 101 LIBXC2 = GGA_C_PBE # or 130 LIBXC1_P2 = 0.12345679 LIBXC2_P1 = 0.046

For Libxc functionals that are the semilocal component of a hybrid functional, i.e. those with a tag that starts with HYB (LHFCALC=.TRUE. will be set automatically if such a functional is selected), the following explains how it works for the mixing and screening parameters:
- Mixing parameter:
- It is usually one of the parameters LIBXC1_Pn, and can therefore be modified.
- For HYB_GGA_XC_PBEH, HYB_GGA_XC_B1WC, HYB_GGA_XC_HSE03, HYB_GGA_XC_HSE06, HYB_GGA_XC_HSE12, and HYB_GGA_XC_HSE12S, the value of AEXX (even if not specified explicitly in INCAR) will be used and automatically passed to the corresponding parameter in Libxc. On the other hand, if this corresponding parameter (LIBXC1_Pn) is specified in INCAR, then it will be used (instead of AEXX), however note that it will be only for the semilocal component of the hybrid functional and not for the exact exchange that will still use AEXX.
- For all hybrid functionals except those listed just above, AEXX will not be considered for the semilocal component of the hybrid functional, but only for the exact exchange component. Therefore, a particular choice for the mixing parameter has to be done by specifying both AEXX (for the exact exchange) and the appropriate LIBXC1_Pn (for the semilocal component).
- The ALDAX, ALDAC, AGGAX, AGGAC, AMGGAX, and AMGGAC tags are ignored if the Libxc functional is an hybrid functional (those with a tag that starts with HYB).
- Screening parameter:
- It is usually one of the parameters LIBXC1_Pn if it is a screened functional, and can therefore be modified.
- For HYB_GGA_XC_HSE03, HYB_GGA_XC_HSE06, HYB_GGA_XC_HSE12, and HYB_GGA_XC_HSE12S, the value of HFSCREEN (even if not specified explicitly in INCAR) will be used and automatically passed to the corresponding parameter in Libxc. On the other hand, if this corresponding parameter (LIBXC1_Pn) is specified in INCAR, then it will be used (instead of HFSCREEN), however note that it will be only for the semilocal component of the hybrid functional and not for the exact exchange that will still use HFSCREEN.
- For all hybrid functionals except those listed just above, HFSCREEN will not be considered for the semilocal component of the hybrid functional, but only for the exact exchange component. Therefore, a particular choice for the screening parameter has to be done by specifying both HFSCREEN (for the exact exchange) and the appropriate LIBXC1_Pn (for the semilocal component).
