Real space pseudopotentials have a number of advantages in solving for the electronic structure of materials. These advantages include ease of implementation, implementation on highly parallel systems, and great flexibility for describing partially periodic systems. One limitation of this approach, shared by other electronic structure methods, is the slow convergence of interatomic forces when compared to total energies. For real space methods, this requires a fine grid to converge a solution of the Kohn–Sham problem, which is accompanied by concurrent increase in memory and additional matrix-vector multiplications. Here we introduce a method to expedite the computation of interatomic forces by employing a high order integration technique. We demonstrate the usefulness of this technique by calculating accurate bond lengths and vibrational frequencies for molecules and nanocrystals without using fine real space grids.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
