The ever-growing intersection of quantum electrodynamics (QED) and molecular processes has shown remarkable and unanticipated advancements in altering molecular properties …
Starting from recent advances in the first-principles modeling of polarons, variational polaron equations in the strong-coupling adiabatic approximation are formulated in Bloch space. In …
We present a computational protocol, based on density matrix perturbation theory, to obtain non-adiabatic, frequency-dependent electron–phonon self-energies for molecules and …
Polarons are quasiparticles formed as a result of lattice distortions induced by charge carriers. The single-electron Holstein model captures the fundamentals of single polaron …
In this work we demonstrate that accurate ground state wave functions may be constructed for polarons in a fully ab initio setting across the wide range of couplings associated with …
Electron-phonon interactions (EPIs) are ubiquitous in condensed matter physics and materials science. They are crucial for understanding numerous phenomena, including …
The electron self-interaction is a long-standing problem in density functional theory and is particularly critical in the description of polarons. Polarons are quasiparticles involving …
ABSTRACT Electron-phonon (𝑒-ph) interactions play a critical role in determining material properties, such as charge and heat transport, optical response, and superconductivity …
