Recent years have seen growing interest in sharp polaronic transitions in systems with strongly momentum-dependent interactions of an itinerant excitation (electron, hole, exciton) with dispersionless phonons. This work presents a scheme…
We investigate the interplay between mechanical forces and the internal-state dynamics of a chain of Rydberg atoms trapped in tweezer arrays under the facilitation constraint. Dipole interactions between Rydberg atoms couple electronic…
Atoms excited into high-lying Rydberg states and under strong dipole-dipole interactions exhibit phenomena associated with highly correlated and complex systems. We perform first principles numerical simulations on the dynamics of such…
The non-equilibrium dynamics of matter excited by light may produce electronic phases that do not exist in equilibrium, such as laser-induced high-transition-temperature superconductivity. Here we simulate the dynamics of a metal driven at…
We investigate the scattering of an electron by phonons in a small structure between two one-dimensional tight-binding leads. This model mimics the quantum electron transport through atomic wires or molecular junctions coupled to metallic…
The quantum acoustic framework has recently emerged as a non-perturbative, coherent approach to electron-lattice interactions, uncovering rich physics often obscured by perturbative methods with incoherent scattering events. Here, we model…
A thorough understanding of the microscopic picture of heat conduction in solids is critical to a broad range of applications, from thermal management of microelectronics to more efficient thermoelectric materials. The transport properties…
We have performed a comprehensive computational study of the vibrational properties and electron-phonon couplings in the three known polymorphs of pentacene. Vibrational patterns and electron-phonon interactions were calculated at several…
Solitons - localized wave packets that travel without spreading - play a central role in understanding transport and properties of nonlinear systems, from optical fibers to fluid dynamics. In quantum many-body systems, however, such robust…
We consider the prospects for quantum simulation of condensed matter models exhibiting strong electron-phonon coupling using a hybrid platform of trapped laser-cooled ions interacting with an ultracold atomic gas. This system naturally…
This article reviews recent theoretical developments in the ab initio study of polarons in materials. The polaron is an emergent quasiparticle that arises from the interaction between electrons and phonons in solids, and consists of an…
Polarons are composite quasiparticles comprising electronic charge carriers taken together with the alterations they induce in surrounding condensed matter. Strong-coupling polarons form when electronic charge carriers become self-trapped:…
Photonic materials are an emerging platform to explore quantum matter and quantum dynamics. The development of Rydberg electromagnetically induced transparency provided a clear route to strong interactions between individual optical…
Strong resonant dipole-dipole interactions in flexible Rydberg aggregates enable the formation of exciton pulses, the interplay of atomic motion and electronic excitation transfer which feature high fidelity entanglement transport. Here, we…
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…
Ultrafast thermal transport in low-dimensional materials challenges traditional diffusive models due to reduced scattering, strong electron-phonon coupling, and pronounced non-equilibrium effects. To address these complexities, we extend…
We present the first numerically exact study of a polaron with quadratic coupling to the oscillator displacement, using two alternative methodological developments. Our results cover both anti-adiabatic and adiabatic regimes and the entire…
We study two identical fermions, or two hard-core bosons, in an infinite chain and coupled to phonons by interactions that modulate their hopping as described by the Peierls/Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model. We show that exchange of phonons…
We consider transport through a vibrating molecular quantum dot contacted to macroscopic leads acting as charge reservoirs. In the equilibrium and nonequilibrium regime, we study the formation of a polaron-like transient state at the…
We developed a theory of charge transport in a system of non-interacting polarons. The theory was conducted to a compact relation through a nonperturbative method based on electron-phonon Hamiltonian. The derived final result represents…
