Spin-orbit coupling has been introduced into our newly developed ligand field density functional theory (LFDFT), using the zero-order regular approximation as implemented into the Amsterdam density functional (ADF) code. Application of the formalism to a series of NiX₄²⁻ (X=F⁻, Cl⁻, Br⁻, I⁻) compounds shows the increasing importance of intra-ligand spin-orbit coupling across the F,...

The new DFT based ligand field (LF) model is proposed to calculate the g- and A-tensors of [Co(acacen)] that is known to be a difficult case. The results obtained are compared with the ZORA approach implemented in ADF as well as with the experimental values. The calculations are in good agreement with the experimental data and demonstrate the ability of the method to reproduce the large...
