The correction of the asymptotic potential error in density functionals improves the accuracy of calculated molecular excited states with charge-transfer character. New computational methods in materials science demonstrate these effects in materials spectroscopy. Defects play a bridging role between molecular and materials spectroscopies, enhancing the accuracy of calculations in these areas.
Five effects of correction of the asymptotic potential error in density functionals are identified that significantly improve calculated properties of molecular excited states involving charge-transfer character. Newly developed materials-science computational methods are used to demonstrate how these effects manifest in materials spectroscopy. Connection is made considering chlorophyll-a as a paradigm for molecular spectroscopy, 22 iconic materials as paradigms for 3D materials spectroscopy, and the V-N(-) defect in hexagonal boron nitride as an example of the spectroscopy of defects in 2D materials pertaining to nanophotonics. Defects can equally be thought of as being molecular and materials in nature and hence bridge the relms of molecular and materials spectroscopies. It is concluded that the density functional HSE06, currently considered as the standard for accurate calculations of materials spectroscopy, should be replaced, in most instances, by the computationally similar but asymptotically corrected CAM-B3LYP functional, with some specific functionals for materials-use only providing further improvements.
