  <dc:description>We present an orbital-resolved extension of the Hubbard U correction to density-functional theory (DFT). Compared to the conventional shell-averaged approach, the prediction of energetic, electronic and structural properties is strongly improved, particularly for compounds characterized by both localized and hybridized states in the Hubbard manifold. The numerical values of all Hubbard parameters are readily obtained from linear-response calculations. The relevance of this more refined approach is showcased by its application to bulk solids pyrite (FeS₂) and pyrolusite (β-MnO₂), as well as to six Fe(II) molecular complexes. Our findings indicate that a careful definition of Hubbard manifolds is indispensable for extending the applicability of DFT+U beyond its current boundaries. The present orbital-resolved scheme aims to provide a computationally undemanding yet accurate tool for electronic structure calculations of charge-transfer insulators, transition-metal (TM) complexes and other compounds displaying significant orbital hybridization.
This dataset contains all Quantum ESPRESSO input and output files as well as all pseudopotentials that were used to generate the results of this study. Moreover, an ``EXAMPLES'' folder provides guidance on how to apply the LR-cDFT approach to evaluate orbital-resolved DFT+U parameters in practise.</dc:description>
