Abstract

A method is proposed whereby the exchange potential corresponding to an approximate exchange energy functional is obtained directly from its energy density. This obviates the need to take the functional derivative of the functional, thus circumventing the difficulties, and errors in the potential, associated with it. We demonstrate the accuracy of this method by presenting the results of a self-consistent calculation performed with both the Becke88 and the PW91 functionals modified accordingly.
