46. We use "μ" to indicate LRC functionals in which the short-range GGA exchange functional is constructed according to the procedure of Iikura et al. (8) Short-range versions of Becke's B88 exchange functional (42) ("μB88") and Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof exchange (45) ("μPBE") are available in Q-Chem. Henderson et al. (15) have developed an alternative version of short-range PBE exchange that they call ωPBE, and we adopt the same notation. The notation "LC-BOP" has also been used for the functional that we call LRC-μBOP, (10) and "LC-ωPBE" has been used for what we call LRC-ωPBE, (15, 26) albeit with different parameters than those used here. The LRC-ωPBE functional has has also been called simply "ωPBE", (47) but we dislike this particular nomenclature, because ωPBE exchange is sometimes used without long-range HF exchange. (48)
