“…\end{eqnarray}$$Next, we build on the atomic‐based polarization theory
56 which establishes a link
57,58 between MLWF centers and calculated dipole moments of ions in molecules or molecular networks. Such methods are used, for example, to determine, dispersive interactions of materials
59,60 including tellurides
61 . The partial dipole moment
of a given atom i can be defined from the ion and the positions
of the MLWF centers by assuming that the electronic charge is concentrated in point charges located on such centers:
where
and
are the ionic charge and position of ion i , and the sum over
includes all the MLWF whose center is localized in the vicinity of
