โฆ Synopsis
We present in this work self-consistent density functional theory DFT calculations on atomic electron affinities performed with nonlocal exchange and a local Coulomb correlation functionals. The exchange functionals are the weighted spin-density ลฝ . ลฝ . approximation WSDA symmetrized following the ideas of Przybylski and Borstel PB and the WSDA functional derived from the potential of the latter using the LevyแPerdew ลฝ . LP formula. This symmetrization procedure leads to the proper asymptotic behavior of the exchangeแcorrelation potential and, as a consequence, to a good description of the loosely bound extra electron of the negative ion.
