A conduction electron (or hole) together with its self-induced polarisation in a polar semiconductor or an ionic crystal forms a quasi-particle, which is called a polaron. The polaron concept is of interest, not only because it describes…
Polarons play a major role in the description of optical, electrical and dielectrical properties of several ferroelectric oxides. The motion of those particles occur by elementary hops among the material lattice sites. In order to compute…
