Multisite local orbitals correspond to local molecular orbitals so that the number of required local orbitals can be minimal. The multisite support functions are determined by using the localized filter diagonalization (LFD) method [ Phys. Rev. B 2009 , 80 , 205104 ]. Two new methods, the double cutoff method and the smoothing method, are introduced to the LFD method to improve efficiency and stability. The Hamiltonian and overlap matrices with multisite local orbitals are constructed by efficient sparse-matrix multiplications in CONQUEST. The investigation of the calculated energetic and geometrical properties and band structures of bulk Si, Al, and DNA systems demonstrate the accuracy and the computational efficiency of the present method. The representability of both occupied and unoccupied band structures with the present method has been also confirmed. date: 2014-11-11 official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/ct5004934 vfaculties: VMPS oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green article_type_text: Journal Article verified: verified_manual elements_source: WoS-Lite elements_id: 999888 doi: 10.1021/ct5004934 lyricists_name: Bowler, David lyricists_name: Miyazaki, Tsuyoshi lyricists_id: DBOWL76 lyricists_id: TMIYA91 full_text_status: public publication: Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation volume: 10 number: 11 pagerange: 4813-4822 event_location: United States issn: 1549-9626 citation: Nakata, A; Bowler, DR; Miyazaki, T; (2014) Efficient Calculations with Multisite Local Orbitals in a Large-Scale DFT Code CONQUEST.
