Spin decontamination for magnetic dipolar coupling calculations: Application to high-spin molecules and solid-state spin qubits

An accurate description of the two-electron density, crucial for magnetic coupling in spin systems, provides in general a major challenge for density functional theory calculations. It affects, e.g., the calculated zero-field splitting (ZFS) energies of spin qubits in semiconductors that frequently...
