A thorough understanding of electrical and thermal transport properties of group-III nitride semiconductors is essential for their electronic and thermoelectric applications. Despite extensive previous studies, these transport properties…
Phonon Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) is an important tool for studying the nanoscale thermal transport. Because phonons have a large spread in their properties, the non-gray (i.e. considering different phonon bands) phonon BTE is…
We study coherent transport through a double quantum dot. Its two electronic leads induce electronic matter and energy transport and a phonon reservoir contributes further energy exchanges. By treating the system-lead couplings…
Using a computationally inexpensive frozen phonon approach we have developed a technique which can be used to screen large unit cell materials and systems for enhanced superconducting critical temperatures. The method requires only density…
One of the most accurate approaches for calculating lattice thermal conductivity, $\kappa_l$, is solving the Boltzmann transport equation starting from third-order anharmonic force constants. In addition to the underlying approximations of…
We show that by integrating out the electric field and incorporating proper boundary conditions, a semiclassical Boltzmann equation can describe electron transport properties, continuously from the diffusive to ballistic regimes. General…
Electron-phonon ($e$-ph) interactions are pervasive in condensed matter, governing phenomena such as transport, superconductivity, charge-density waves, polarons and metal-insulator transitions. First-principles approaches enable accurate…
We study the interplay between long-range electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions in electrostatically doped two-dimensional semiconductors, including interlayer couplings in van der Waals heterostructures. We evaluate the…
We discuss a semiclassical approach to solve the quantum impurity model within non-equilibrium dynamical mean-field theory for electron-lattice models. The effect of electronic fluctuations on the phonon is kept beyond Ehrenfest dynamics,…
In recent years, phonon electron carrier dragging has emerged as an innovative approach for modulating energy transfer in low dimensional systems. In this Letter, we explore the fundamental mechanisms of electron-phonon coupling and the…
In polar semiconductors and oxides, the long-range nature of the electron-phonon (\textit{e}-ph) interaction is a bottleneck to compute charge transport from first principles. Here, we develop an efficient ab initio scheme to compute and…
To describe the interaction of molecular vibrations with electrons at a quantum dot contacted to metallic leads, we extend an analytical approach that we previously developed for the many-polaron problem. Our scheme is based on an…
Electron-phonon coupling often dominates the electron spectral functions and carrier transport properties. However, studies of this effect in real materials have largely relied on perturbative one-shot methods due to the lack of a…
Interactions of charge carriers with lattice vibrations, or phonons, play a critical role in unconventional electronic transport of metals and semimetals. Recent observations of phonon-mediated collective electron flow in bulk semimetals,…
The equilibration of electronic carriers in metals after excitation by an ultra-short laser pulse provides an important class of non-equilibrium phenomena in metals and allows measuring the effective electron-phonon coupling parameter.…
Accurate models of carrier transport are essential for describing the electronic properties of semiconductor materials. To the best of our knowledge, the current models following the framework of the Boltzmann transport equation (BTE)…
The principal paradigm for determining the thermoelectric properties of materials is based on the Boltzmann transport equations (BTEs) or Landauer equivalent. These equations depend on the electron and phonon density of states (e-DOS and…
Understanding of the energy exchange between electrons and phonons in metals is important for micro- and nano-manufacturing and system design. The electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling constant is to describe such exchange strength, yet its…
The role of electron-phonon interactions is experimentally and theoretically investigated near the saddle point absorption peak of graphene. The differential optical transmission spectra of multiple, non-interacting layers of graphene…
Within the framework of nonequilibrium Green's functions, we investigate the thermoelectric transport in a single molecular junction with electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions. By transforming into a displaced phonon basis, we…
