Abstract
As an efficient and accurate quantum chemical method for photobiological and condensed phase applications, pseudospectral time-dependent density functional theory (PS-TDDFT) is presented, which alleviates the O(N4) scaling problem in two-electron integral calculations. For the test cases in this work, PS-TDDFT is up to 10 times faster than the conventional TDDFT with hybrid functionals without sacrificing chemical accuracy.
