Extensive Benchmarking of DFT+<i>U</i> Calculations for Predicting Band Gaps

Accurate computational predictions of band gaps are of practical importance to the modeling and development of semiconductor technologies, such as (opto)electronic devices and photoelectrochemical cells. Among available electronic-structure methods, density-functional theory (DFT) with the Hubbard &...
