Resonant Inelastic X-Ray Scattering Study of Electron-Exciton Coupling in High-T-c Cuprates

Fabrizio Carbone, Thorsten Schmitt, Ivan Madan, Christophe Berthod, Yi Tseng, Francesco Barantani

Explaining the mechanism of superconductivity in the high-T-c cuprates requires an understanding of what causes electrons to form Cooper pairs. Pairing can be mediated by phonons, the screened Coulomb force, spin or charge fluctuations, excitons, or by a c ...

Time- and Angle-Resolved Photoelectron Spectroscopy of Solar Materials

Serhii Polishchuk

Natural foundations defining the manner in which a solid material interacts with optical radiation are primarily encoded in the material's momentum-dependent band structure and the microscopic details of the electron-lattice interactions. An access to this ...

Evidence of a coupled electron-phonon liquid in NbGe2

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Mathieu François Padlewski

Whereas electron-phonon scattering relaxes the electron's momentum in metals, a perpetual exchange of momentum between phonons and electrons may conserve total momentum and lead to a coupled electron-phonon liquid. Such a phase of matter could be a platfor ...

Finite-Temperature, Anharmonicity, and Duschinsky Effects on the Two-Dimensional Electronic Spectra from Ab Initio Thermo-Field Gaussian Wavepacket Dynamics

Jiri Vanicek, Tomislav Begusic

Accurate description of finite-temperature vibrational dynamics is indispensable in the computation of two-dimensional electronic spectra. Such simulations are often based on the density matrix evolution, statistical averaging of initial vibrational states ...

Electron-phonon-driven three-dimensional metallicity in an insulating cuprate

Fabrizio Carbone, Cédric Weber, Edoardo Baldini

The role of the crystal lattice for the electronic properties of cuprates and other high-temperature superconductors remains controversial despite decades of theoretical and experimental efforts. While the paradigm of strong electronic correlations suggest ...

Nonequilibrium exciton physics in hybrid lead-halide perovskites and anatase titanium dioxide

Tania Palmieri

The strength of the electron-hole interaction in bulk semiconductors is not only determined by the dielectric environment, but also depends on the presence of other quasiparticles - free charge carriers or phonons - that populate the system. In the former ...

Trapping, self-trapping and the polaron family
