The nonlocal electron-phonon couplings in organic semiconductors responsible for the fluctuation of intermolecular transfer integrals has been the center of interest recently. Several irreconcilable scenarios coexist for the description of…
A polaron model proposed as a possible mechanism for nonlinear conductance [Galperin M, Ratner M A, and Nitzan A 2005 Nano Lett. 5 125-30] is revisited with focus on the differences between the weak and strong molecule-lead coupling cases.…
Electronic conductance through a single molecule is sensitive towards its structural orientation between two electrodes, owing to the distribution of molecular orbitals and their coupling to the electrode levels, that are governed by…
Local positional disorder in soft, anharmonic materials has emerged as a central factor in shaping their electronic, vibrational, optical, and transport properties. Viewed mainly as a source of performance degradation, recent theoretical…
Based on generalized quantum Langevin equations for the tight-binding wave function amplitudes and lattice displacements, electron and phonon quantum transport are obtained exactly using molecular dynamics (MD) in the ballistic regime. The…
A rate equation formalism is used to determine the effect of electron-phonon coupling on the conductance of a molecule. Interplay between the phonon-induced renormalization of the density of states on the quantum dot and the phonon-induced…
In this work we study the effects of nonadiabatic external driving on the thermodynamics of an electronic system coupled to two electronic leads and to a phonon mode, with and without damping. In the limit of slow driving, we establish…
Nonlinear phononics has emerged as a powerful paradigm for the nonthermal control of quantum materials by engineering a conservative potential energy landscape. Here, we show that dissipation can serve as an additional control knob for…
We investigate models of molecular junctions which constitute minimal Hamiltonians to account for zero-bias-anomaly and the satellite features of inelastic transport by molecular phonons. Through nonlinear transport calculations with the…
We formulate a semiclassical theory for electron transport in open quantum systems with electron-phonon interactions adequate for situations when the system's phonon dynamics is comparable with the electron transport timescale. Starting…
We investigate theoretically the properties of the photon state and the electronic transport in a system consisting of a metallic quantum dot strongly coupled to a superconducting microwave transmission line cavity. Within the framework of…
A resonantly excited coherent phonon leads to a periodic oscillation of the atomic lattice in a crystal structure bringing the material into a non-equilibrium electronic configuration. Periodically oscillating quantum systems can be…
We describe the realization of multimode phononic correlations that arise from nonlinear interactions in a mechanical nondegenerate parametric amplifier. The nature of these correlations differs qualitatively depending on the strength of…
Coherent electronic transport through a molecular device is studied using non-equilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism. Such device is made of a short linear wire which is connected to para- and ferromagnetic electrodes. Molecule…
Negative nonlinear electron-phonon coupling involving an infrared-active phonon mode can lead to an instability towards the formation of a polar lattice distortion with ferrielectric (FE) moments accompanied by an electronic charge-density…
We calculate the nonequilibrium conductance through a molecule or a quantum dot in which the occupation of the relevant electronic level is coupled with intensity $\lambda$ to a phonon mode, and also to two conducting leads. The system is…
Nonlinear phononics is the phenomenon in which a coherent dynamics in a material along a set of phonons is launched after its infrared-active phonons are selectively excited using external light pulses. The microscopic mechanism underlying…
Predictive modeling of the phonon/thermal transport properties of materials is vital to rational design for a diverse spectrum of engineering applications. Classical Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations serve as a tool to simulate the time…
A time-dependent inelastic electron transport theory for strong electron-phonon interaction is established via the equations of motion method combined with the small polaron transformation. In this work, the dissipation via electron-phonon…
We study dynamic nonequilibrium electron charging phenomena in ballistic molecular devices at room temperature that compromise their response to bias and whose nature is evidently distinguishable from static Schottky-type potential…
