To address the effects of lattice anharmonicity across the perovskite to post-perovskite transition in MgSiO$_3$, we conduct calculations using the phonon quasiparticle (PHQ) approach. The PHQ is based on \textit{ab initio} molecular…
Thermal conductivity ($\kappa$) of mantle minerals is a fundamental property in geodynamic modeling. It controls the style of mantle convection and the time scale of the mantle and core cooling. Cubic CaSiO$_3$ perovskite (CaPv) is the…
We use a hybrid strategy to obtain anharmonic frequency shifts and lifetimes of phonon quasi-particles from first principles molecular dynamics simulations in modest size supercells. This approach is effective irrespective of crystal…
Understanding and predicting lattice dynamics in strongly anharmonic crystals is one of the long-standing challenges in condensed matter physics. Here we propose a first-principles method that gives accurate quasiparticle (QP) peaks of the…
The role of data in modern materials science becomes more valuable and accurate when effects such as electron-phonon coupling and anharmonicity are included, providing a more realistic representation of finite-temperature material behavior.…
Barium zirconate (BaZrO$_3$) is one of the very few perovskites that is claimed to retain an average cubic structure down to \SI{0}{\K}, while being energetically very close to an antiferrodistortive phase obtained by condensation of a soft…
Lattice thermal conductivity ($\kappa_{lat}$) of MgSiO$_3$ postperovskite (MgPPv) under the Earth's lower mantle high pressure-temperature conditions is studied using the phonon quasiparticle approach by combing \textit{ab initio} molecular…
The microscopic origin of the large negative thermal expansion of cubic scandium trifluorides (ScF3) is investigated by performing a set of anharmonic free-energy calculations based on density functional theory. We demonstrate that the…
We conduct first-principles theoretical studies to investigate the temperature-dependent phonon properties of orthorhombic SrZrO$_3$ (SZO) perovskite. Our calculations include the quasiharmonic approximation, in which we explored mode…
Fundamentally understanding the lattice dynamics and microscopic mechanisms of thermal transport in cubic hybrid organic-inorganic perovskites remains elusive, primarily due to their strong anharmonicity and frequent phase transitions. In…
In this work, we investigate the microscopic mechanisms of anharmonic lattice dynamics and thermal transport in lead-free halide double perovskite Cs2AgBiBr6 from first principles. We combine self-consistent phonon calculations with bubble…
Phonon anharmonicity is ubiquitous in real materials and is crucial for understanding thermal properties and phase stability. In this work, we show that anharmonic phonon modes can be obtained by maximizing their vibration stability during…
CsSnI3 is a promising eco-friendly solution for energy harvesting technologies. It exists at room temperature in either a black perovskite polymorph or a yellow 1D double-chain, which irreversibly deteriorates in the air. In this work, we…
We here introduce a Fortran code that computes anharmonic free energy of solids from first-principles based on our phonon quasiparticle approach. In this code, phonon quasiparticle properties, i.e., renormalized phonon frequencies and…
The lower mantle of Earth, characterized by pressures of 24-127 GPa and temperatures of 1900-2600 K, is still inaccessible to direct observations. In this work, we investigate by first principles the stability, phase diagram, elastic…
Chalcogenide perovskites offer superior thermal and aqueous stability as well as a benign elemental composition compared to organic halide perovskites for optoelectronic applications. In this study, the structural, electrical, elastic,…
The phonon dispersion relations of crystal lattices can often be well-described with the harmonic approximation. However, when the potential energy landscape exhibits more anharmonicity, for instance, in case of a weakly bonded crystal or…
An approach to compute the anharmonic peaks of the phonon dispersion curves through the ab initio calculated Hellmann-Feynman forces from a series of supercells with realistic atomic displacements of all atoms, which correspond to a given…
The quasi-harmonic approximation (QHA) is a powerful method that uses the volume dependence of non-interacting phonons to compute the free energy of materials at high pressures (P) and temperatures (T). However, anharmonicity, electronic…
The anharmonicity resulted from the intrinsic phonon interaction is neglected by quasiharmonic approximation. Although the intensive researches about anharmonicity have been done, up to now the free energy contributed by the anharmonicity…
