“…Recently, the long-range adapted Coulomb Attenuating Method-B3LYP (CAM-B3LYP) [26] proved to be well suited to reproducing some of the features of the spectra in OPA, TPA, and circular dichroism spectra of organic chromophores, in particular for transitions to Rydberg states or charge-transfer processes. [20,21,27,28] B3LYP appears on the other hand to be equally adequate, and in some cases performs even better than CAM-B3LYP for valence excitations, as observed in recent studies of linear spectroscopy [29] and also nonlinear spectroscopy of binaphthols [30] or of tryptophan.
