Polarizable Continuum Models

Polarizable Continuum Model is a quantum chemical solvation model that treats the solvent as a polarizable dielectric continuum surrounding the solute within a cavity, thereby accounting for the electrostatic response of the solvent to the solute’s charge distribution through self-consistent reaction field theory.
