Nonlinear optics of III-V semiconductors in the terahertz regime: an ab-initio study

Eric Roman, Jonathan R. Yates, Marek Veithen +2

We compute from first principles the infrared dispersion of the nonlinear susceptibility in zincblende semiconductors. At terahertz frequencies the nonlinear susceptibili…

Unusual behaviour of the ferroelectric polarization in PbTiO/SrTiO superlattices

M. Dawber, C. Lichtensteiger, M. Cantoni +5

Artificial PbTiO/SrTiO superlattices were constructed using off-axis RF magnetron sputtering. X-ray diffraction and piezoelectric atomic force microscopy were used to s…

Non-linear optical susceptibilities, Raman efficiencies and electrooptic tensors from first-principles density functional perturbation theory

M. Veithen, X. Gonze, Ph. Ghosez

The non-linear response of infinite periodic solids to homogenous electric fields and collective atomic displacements is discussed in the framework of density functional perturbati…

First-principles study of the electrooptic effect in ferroelectric oxides

Marek Veithen, Xavier Gonze, Philippe Ghosez

We present a method to compute the electrooptic tensor from first principles, explicitly taking into account the electronic, ionic and piezoelectric contributions. It allows us to…

Electron localization : band-by-band decomposition, and application to oxides

M. Veithen, X. Gonze, Ph. Ghosez

Using a plane wave pseudopotential approach to density functional theory we investigate the electron localization length in various oxides. For this purpose, we first set up a theo…
