Excitons -- bound electron-hole pairs -- play a central role in light-matter interaction phenomena, and are crucial for wide-ranging applications from light harvesting and generation to quantum information processing. A long-standing…
Excitonic effects in optical spectra and electron-hole pair excitations are described by solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) that accounts for the Coulomb interaction of excited electron-hole pairs. Although for the computation…
Applying the novel exact-exchange (EXX) Kohn-Sham method within time-dependent density-functional theory, we obtained the optical absorption spectrum of bulk silicon in good agreement with experiments including excitonic features. Analysis…
Electronic structure calculations in the time domain provide a deeper understanding of nonequilibrium dynamics in materials. The real-time Boltzmann equation (rt-BTE), used in conjunction with accurate interactions computed from first…
The exciton binding energy, the energy required to dissociate an excited electron-hole pair into free charge carriers, is one of the key factors to the optoelectronic performance of organic materials. However, it remains unclear whether…
Charge-transfer excited states are highly relevant for applications in molecular electronics. However, the accurate calculation of these states in large systems is challenging since wave function methods are prohibitively expensive,…
Exciton formation leads to J-bands in solid pentacene. Describing these exciton bands represents a challenge for both time-dependent (TD) density-functional theory (DFT) and for its semiempirical analogue, namely for TD density-functional…
Time-dependent Hartree-Fock (TDHF) is one of the fundamental post-Hartree-Fock (HF) methods to describe excited states. In its Tamm-Dancoff form, equivalent to Configuration Interaction Singles, it is still widely used and particularly…
The bound electron-hole pairs known as excitons govern the optical properties of insulating solids. While their behavior in equilibrium is well-understood theoretically, the nonequilibrium regime at high excitation densities-where phenomena…
Photoabsorption in the low-energy region for C$_{60}$ and PTCDA molecular complexes is studied within linear response TDDFT. For the PBE, B3LYP and HSE exchange-correlation (xc) functionals the dependence of the accuracy of the exciton…
This chapter presents the development of a density functional theory (DFT)-based method for accurate, reliable treatment of various resonances in atoms. Many of these are known to be notorious for their strong correlation, proximity to more…
We analyze possible nonlinear exciton-exciton correlation effects in the optical response of semiconductors by using a time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) approach. For this purpose, we derive the nonlinear (third-order) TDDFT…
The properties of excitons, or correlated electron-hole pairs, are of paramount importance to optoelectronic applications of materials. A central component of exciton physics is the electron-hole interaction, which is commonly treated as…
We outline a Kohn-Sham-Dirac density-functional-theory (DFT) scheme for graphene sheets that treats slowly-varying inhomogeneous external potentials and electron-electron interactions on an equal footing. The theory is able to account for…
We present a theoretical study of the formation of self-trapped excitons (STEs) and the associated broadband emission in metal-halide perovskites Cs$_4$SnBr$_6$ and Cs$_2$AgInCl$_6$, using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT)…
Optical processes in insulators and semiconductors, including excitonic effects, can be described in principle exactly using time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT). Starting from a linearization of the TDDFT semiconductor Bloch…
Non-adiabaticity in adsorption on metal surfaces gives rise to a number of measurable effects, such as chemicurrents and exo-electron emission. Here we present a quantitative theory of chemicurrents on the basis of ground-state…
We consider the calculations of photoionization spectra and core resonances of open-shell systems using range-separated time-dependent density-functional theory. Specifically, we use the time-dependent range-separated hybrid (TDRSH) scheme,…
Electron-phonon ($e$-ph) interactions are key to understanding the dynamics of electrons in materials, and can be modeled accurately from first-principles. However, when electrons and holes form Coulomb-bound states (excitons), quantifying…
Floquet engineering of electronic states by light is a central topic in modern experiments. However, the impact of many-body interactions on the single-electron properties remains unclear in this non-equilibrium situation. We propose that…
