Abstract
The B3LYP method augmented with a damped empirical dispersion term (−f(R)C6/R6) is shown to yield structures and cohesive energies, for a representative set of molecular crystals, in excellent agreement with experimental data. Vibrational lattice modes of crystalline urea are also reported to be very close to experiment. The role of the damping function in scaling the dispersion contribution has been analyzed as well as the relevance of the BSSE in the prediction of structure and cohesive energy.Keywords
