First-principles theory of phonon renormalization from nonlinear electron-phonon interactions

Florian Kluibenschedl, Matthew Houtput, Jacques Tempere +3

Electron-phonon interactions renormalize phonon frequencies and lifetimes and are central to the dynamical properties of solids. While these effects are usually described within li…

Importance of nonlinear long-range electron-phonon interaction for the carrier mobility of anharmonic halide perovskites

Matthew Houtput, Ingvar Zappacosta, William Wenborn +4

The interaction between the electrons and the lattice vibrations in a solid is responsible for various important effects, such as formation of polarons, temperature dependent bandg…

Polaron with Quadratic Electron-phonon Interaction

Stefano Ragni, Thomas Hahn, Zhongjin Zhang +9

We present the first numerically exact study of a polaron with quadratic coupling to the oscillator displacement, using two alternative methodological developments. Our results cov…

Stability conditions for a large anharmonic bipolaron

Matthew Houtput, Jacques Tempere

A large polaron is a quasiparticle that consists of a nearly free electron interacting with the phonons of a material, whose lattice parameters are much smaller than the polaron sc…

Optical conductivity of an anharmonic large polaron gas at weak coupling

Matthew Houtput, Jacques Tempere

In a polar solid, electrons or other charge carriers can interact with the phonons of the ionic lattice, leading to the formation of polaron quasiparticles. The optical conductivit…

Revisiting the Maxwell multipoles for vectorized angular functions

Matthew Houtput, Jacques Tempere

Across many areas of physics, multipole expansions are used to simplify problems, solve differential equations, calculate integrals, and process experimental data. Spherical harmon…

Beyond the Fröhlich Hamiltonian: Path integral treatment of large polarons in anharmonic solids

Matthew Houtput, Jacques Tempere

The properties of an electron in a typical solid are modified by the interaction with the crystal ions, leading to the formation of a quasiparticle: the polaron. Such polarons are…

Finite element simulation of the liquid-liquid transition to metallic hydrogen

Matthew Houtput, Jacques Tempere, Isaac F. Silvera

Hydrogen at high temperature and pressure undergoes a phase transition from a liquid molecular phase to a conductive atomic state, or liquid metallic hydrogen, sometimes referred t…
