Recently we have developed the dual-functional Tamm-Dancoff approximation (DF-TDA) method. DF-TDA is an alternative to linear-response time dependent density functional theory (LR-TDDFT) with the advantage of providing a correct double-cone topology of S-1/S-0 conical intersections. In the DF-TDA method, we employ different functionals, which are denoted G and F, for orbital optimization and Hamiltonian construction. We use the notation DF-TDA/G:F. In the current work, we propose that G be the same as F except for having 100% Hartree-Fock exchange. We use the notation F100 to denote functional F with this modification. A motivation for this is that functionals with 100% Hartree Fock exchange are one-electron self-interaction-free. Here we validate the use of F100/M06 to compute vertical excitation energies and the global potential energy surface of ammonia near a conical intersection to further validate the F100 method for photochemical problems.
