Utilized advanced noninteracting kinetic energy functionals.
Implemented a memory-efficient parallelization scheme.

Main Results:

The multiscale method accurately reproduced binding energy differences for H2O and CO2 on Al(111) surfaces.
Achieved millielectronvolt accuracy compared to full KS-DFT.
Demonstrated robustness for Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics simulations.

Conclusions:

The developed multiscale DFT approach extends KS-DFT applicability to mesoscopic molecule-metal interfaces.
This method offers a computationally feasible pathway for ab initio simulations of realistic systems.
The technique opens new avenues for studying molecular adsorption and interface phenomena.
