Rotational Phonons Drive Low-Energy Kinks in Cuprate Superconductors

Yanyong Wang, Manuel Engel, Christopher Lane +9

Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) reveals ubiquitous quasiparticle ``kinks'' near 70 meV and 40 meV across cuprate superconductors, often accompanied by…

EPW-VASP interface for first-principles calculations of electron-phonon interactions

Danylo Radevych, Aidan Thorn, Manuel Engel +5

We present an interface between the Vienna \textit{Ab initio} Simulation Package (VASP) and the EPW software for calculating materials properties governed by electron-phonon (e-ph)…

Zero-point Renormalization of the Band Gap of Semiconductors and Insulators Using the PAW Method

Manuel Engel, Henrique Miranda, Laurent Chaput +4

We evaluate the zero-point renormalization (ZPR) due to electron-phonon interactions of 28 solids using the projector-augmented-wave (PAW) method. The calculations cover diamond, m…
