Fermi orbital self-interaction corrected electronic structure of molecules beyond local density approximation — •Torsten Hahn1, Simon Liebing1, Jens Kortus1, and Mark Pederson21Institute for Theoretical Physics, TU Freiberg, 09599 Freiberg, Germany — 2Department of Chemistry, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, USA

The correction of the self-interaction error that is inherent to all standard density functional theory (DFT) calculations is an object of increasing interest. We present our results on the application of the recently developed Fermi-orbital based approach [1,2] for the self-interaction correction (FO-SIC) to a set of different molecular systems [3]. Our study covers systems ranging from simple diatomic to large organic molecules. Our focus lies on the direct estimation of the ionization potential from orbital eigenvalues and on the ordering of electronic levels in metal-organic molecules. Further, we show that the Fermi orbital positions in structurally similar molecules appear to be transferable.
