This repository contains supporting information for the submitted manuscript 'Elucidating the carbochromism of K3[V(O2)4] with ab initio modeling'. All input files needed to reproduce the computational figures are provided herein. Calculations were carried out in the CASTEP 20.111 and OptaDOS 1.2.3802 software packages with different XC functionals and MP k-grid combinations (vide infra). Experimental diffuse reflectance spectra were collected at room temperature on a Jasco V-670 spectrophotometer.
Instructions for performing the color calculations and creating the PDOS/bandstructure plots are provided here
