Hi,  I have calculated absorption spectrum for a dye with two functionals, CAM-B3LYP and B3LYP. The excitation energies of this dye  calculated with CAM-B3LYP functional are in good agreement experiments. But corresponding molar absorption coefficients (Epsilon) are overestimating and almost double to that of experimental value. Molar extinction coefficients calculated with B3LYP functional is  closer to the experimental value but its excitation energies are deviated from experimental values. Is there any way to obtain approximate or accurate molar extinction coefficients?
