First-Principles Spin-Lattice Coupling from Downfolded Electron-Phonon Interaction

Xu He, Álvaro Adrián Carrasco Álvarez, Gian-Marco Rignanese +3

We present a method to calculate spin-phonon coupling parameters from first-principles perturbation theory by downfolding the electron-phonon coupling (EPC). We exploit the localiz…

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…

Handedness selection and hysteresis of chiral orders in crystals

Mauro Fava, Aldo H. Romero, Eric Bousquet

A phase transition can drive the spontaneous emergence of chiral orders in crystals below a critical temperature. However, selecting either a right- or a left-handed phase with the…

Pathways to crystal chirality An algorithm to identify new displacive chiral phase transitions

Fernando Gómez-Ortiz, Aldo H. Romero, Eric Bousquet

We present an algorithm that integrates pseudosymmetry search with first-principles calculations to systematically identify achiral parent structures and establish potential chiral…
