Selftrapping has been traditionally studied on the assumption that quasiparticles interact with harmonic phonons and that this interaction is linear in the displacement of the phonon. To complement recent semiclassical studies of…
Relying on the anharmonic special displacement method, we introduce an ab initio quasistatic polymorphous framework to describe local disorder, anharmonicity, and electron-phonon coupling in superionic conductors. Using the example of cubic…
A model with Holstein-like electron-phonon coupling is studied in the limit of adiabatic phonons. The phonon distribution is anharmonic with two degenerate maxima. This model can be related to fermions in a correlated binary alloy and…
The interplay between electron-electron correlations and disorder has been a central theme of condensed matter physics over the last several decades, with particular interest in the possibility that interactions might cause delocalization…
The anharmonic self energy of two zone boundary phonons were computed to lowest order for AlH$_3$ in the $Pm\bar 3n$ structure at 110 GPa. The wavevector and branch index corresponding to these modes are situated in a region of phase space…
