Hello Everyone,

I'm working with vdw interractions for C in a double wall carbon nano-tube.
What I have realized is that using the vdw requires very good basis set and
the regular DZP doesn't work anymore. Even TZDP is not sufficient, according
to Guillermo Roma´n-Pe´rez et al. PRL, 103, 096102 (2009), they needed a
TZDP optimized basis + BSSE corrections.
Please could some explain of how to actually apply BSSE corrections?
Also I read some discussions on the previous threads about using diffuse
orbitals instead of BSSE, how do i use diffuse orbitals in siesta?

If both the above options can be used I would like to know which one is
computationally more efficient.

P.S. If possible please could you provide examples.
