GGA = 91 | PE | RP | PS | AM
Default: GGA = type of exchange-correlation in accordance with the POTCAR file 

Description: GGA specifies the type of generalized-gradient-approximation one wishes to use.


This tag was added to perform GGA calculation with pseudopotentials generated with conventional LDA reference configurations.

Possible options are:

GGA Description
91 Perdew -Wang 91
PE Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof
RP revised Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof
AM AM05[1][2][3]
HL Hendin-Lundqvist[4]
CA Ceperley-Alder[5]
PZ Ceperley-Alder, parametrization of Perdew-Zunger[6]
WI Wigner[7]
RP RPBE with Pade Approximation[8]
VW Vosko-Wilk-Nusair[9] (VWN)
B3 B3LYP[10] (Joachim Paier), where LDA part is with VWN3-correlation
B5 B3LYP (Joachim Paier), where LDA part is with VWN5-correlation
BF BEEF[11], xc (with libbeef)
CO no exchange-correlation
PS Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof revised for solids (PBEsol)[12]
for range-separated ACFDT:
RA new RPA Perdew Wang (by Judith Harl)
03 range-separated ACFDT (LDA - sr RPA)
05 range-separated ACFDT (LDA - sr RPA)
03 range-separated ACFDT (LDA - sr RPA)
05 range-separated ACFDT (LDA - sr RPA)
PL new RPA+ Perdew Wang (by Judith Harl)
for vdW (Jiri Klimes):
RE revPBE[13]
OR optPBE
BO optB88
MK optB86b

The tags AM (AM05) and PS (PBEsol) are only supported by VASP.5.X. The AM05 functional and the PBEsol functional are constructed using different principles, but both aim at a decent description of yellium surface energies. In practice, they yield quite similar results for most materials. Both are available for spin polarized calculations.
