Abstract

The range-separated Baer-Neuhauser-Livshits functional with optimized range-separation parameter γ was employed to predict ionization energies of alkanes and oligothiophenes. For all systems negative orbital energies of neutral species are consistent with explicitly calculated states of cations. For σ-systems excellent agreement with experiment is obtained while for conjugated π-systems IPs are underestimated.
