Dielectric continuum methods for quantum chemistry
John M. Herbert
Abstract:This review describes the theory and implementation of implicit solvation models based on continuum electrostatics. Within quantum chemistry this formalism is sometimes synonymous with the polarizable continuum model, a particular boundary-element approach to the problem defined by the Poisson or Poisson-Boltzmann equation, but that moniker belies the diversity of available methods. This work reviews the current state-of-the art, with emphasis on theory and methods rather than applications. The basics of conti… Show more
