Hi
Some people take this formula to compute U for their material.
E(d_n+1)+E(d_n-1)-2E(d_n)==U
For isolated atom(Ti), the HOMO and LUMO is d orbital. On the other hand the affinity and ionization energy is like this:
A = E(n)-E(n+1)
I = E(n-1)-E(n)
So can I compute A and I and then U=A-I. Is is correct?
thanks a lot
