Spin-orbit coupling renormalization of the natural optical activity of Pb5Ge3O11 from first-principles

Asier Zabalo, Massimiliano Stengel, Eric Bousquet

We present a first-principles study of the natural optical activity of the gyroelectric PbGeO crystal, explicitly accounting for spin-orbit coupling (SOC) effects. W…

Structural Chirality and Natural Optical Activity across the -to- Phase Transition in SiO and AlPO from first-principles

F. Gómez-Ortiz, A. Zabalo, A. M. Glazer +3

Natural optical activity (NOA), the ability of a material to rotate the plane of polarized light, has traditionally been associated with structural chirality. However, this relatio…
