Hi

I had a quick look at this functional and it seems to me there
are three non-trivial things to do for the implementation in
CP2K.

1) add a new parametrization to the BECKE97 functional
   follow the lead from other parametrizations
2) add a new potential type in the HF section
   follow the lead from other mixed potential types in the code
3) check if the implemented rVV10 functional can be used instead
   of the original VV10. Only rVV10 is implemented in CP2K

Your input will look something like this:

      &XC
      &XC_FUNCTIONAL
      &BECKE97
        PARAMETRIZATION    XXXXX
        SCALE_X 0.0
        SCALE_C 1.0
      &END PBE
      &END XC_FUNCTIONAL
      &HF
        &SCREENING
          EPS_SCHWARZ 1.0E-3
        &END
        &INTERACTION_POTENTIAL
          POTENTIAL_TYPE SHORTRANGE-LONGRANGE
          OMEGA 0.11
        &END
        &MEMORY
          MAX_MEMORY  10
        &END
        FRACTION 0.25
      &END
      &vdW_POTENTIAL
         DISPERSION_FUNCTIONAL NON_LOCAL
         &NON_LOCAL
           TYPE RVV10
           PARAMETERS 6.3 0.0093
           VERBOSE_OUTPUT
           KERNEL_FILE_NAME ../rVV10_kernel_table.dat
           CUTOFF  80
         &END NON_LOCAL
      &END vdW_POTENTIAL
    &END XC

Subject: [CP2K:5031] Implementing new functionals

Hello,

I would like to implement the ωB97X-V functional as presented in this paper: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24430168
I am relatively new to CP2K so I apologize if this is a trivial question, but would someone mind assisting me in implementing this functional?

Thanks,
August
