Revised versions of our published pob‐TZVP basis sets [Laun, J.; Vilela Oliveira, D. and Bredow, T., J. Comput. Chem., 2018, 39 (19), 1285–1290] have been derived for periodic quantum‐chemical solid‐state calculations. They complete our pob‐TZVP‐rev2 series [Vilela Oliveira, D.; Laun, J.; Peintinger, M. F. and Bredow, T., J. Comput. Chem., 2019, 40 (27), 2364–2376 and Laun, J. and Bredow, J. Comput. Chem. 2021; 42 (15), 1064–1072] for the elements of the fifth period and are based on the fully relativistic effective core potentials (ECPs) of the Stuttgart/Cologne group and the def2‐TZVP valence basis of the Ahlrichs group. The pob‐TZVP‐rev2 basis sets are developed to minimize the basis set superposition error (BSSE) in crystalline systems. For the applied PW1PW hybrid functional, the overall performance, transferability, and SCF stability of the resulting pob‐TZVP‐rev2 basis sets are significantly improved compared to the original pob‐TZVP basis sets. After augmentation with single diffuse s‐ and p‐functions, reference plane‐wave band structures of metals can be accurately reproduced.
