Phonon polaritons (PhPs) in freestanding and supported multilayers (MuLs) of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) are systematically studied using a macroscopic optical-phonon model. The PhP properties such as confinement, group velocity,…

We present a first-principles approach for calculating phonon-polariton dispersion relations. In this approach, phonon-photon interaction is described by quantization of a Hamiltonian that describes harmonic lattice vibrations coupled with…

We simulate propagation of phonon-polaritons (admixtures of polar lattice vibrations and electromagnetic waves) in ferroelectric LiNbO3 with a model that consists of a spatially periodic array of harmonic oscillators coupled to THz…

Extreme confinement of electromagnetic energy by phonon polaritons holds the promise of strong and new forms of control over the dynamics of matter. To bring such control to the atomic-scale limit, it is important to consider phonon…

We propose a macroscopic theory of optical phonons, Fr{\"o}hlich polarons, and exciton-polarons in two-dimensional (2D) polar crystalline monolayers. Our theory extends the classical macroscopic formulation of the electron-phonon problem in…

In analogy to the observed for single plasmon-polaritons, we show that subdiffractional hyperbolic phonon-polariton (HP2) modes confined in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) nanocrystals feature wave-particle duality. First, we use Synchrotron…

We formulate a generalized continuum theory of phonon angular momentum in crystals by introducing a local SO(3) material frame in addition to the macroscopic displacement field. The local frame represents rotational optical degrees of…

We consider long-wave phonon-polaritons and longitudinal optical phonons in alkali-halide ionic crystals. The model of point charges that are polarized in the self-consistent electromagnetic field in a dielectric environment is used. The…

Phonon splitting of the longitudinal optical and transverse optical modes (LO-TO splitting), a ubiquitous phenomenon in three-dimensional (3D) polar materials, is essential for the formation of the 3D phonon polaritons. Theories predict…

Dispersion equations are a common paradigm of collective excitation physics. However, in some systems, dispersion equations contain multivalued functions and their solutions are ambiguous. As an example, we consider graphene on a polar…

Sub-wavelength confinement of mid-infrared light can be achieved exploiting the metal-like optical response of polar dielectric crystals in their Reststrahlen spectral region, where they support evanescent modes termed surface phonon…

We develop an analytical microscopic theory to describe the polaron-polariton dispersion, formed by hybridizing excitons, photons, and phonons, and their coherent dynamics inside optical cavities. Starting from a microscopic light-matter…

Phonon polaritons are quasiparticles resulting from strong coupling of photons with optical phonons. Excitation and control of these quasiparticles in 2D materials offer the opportunity to confine and transport light at the nanoscale. Here,…

The recently suggested concept of a polaritonic Fourier crystal (PFC) is based on a harmonically-corrugated mirror substrate for a thin pristine polaritonic crystal layer. The propagating polaritons in PFC experience a harmonic and…

We report global analysis results for polarized parton distribution functions in the nucleon. The optimum distributions are determined by using spin asymmetry data on polarized lepton scattering on proton, neutron, and deuteron. Their…

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…

Confined polar optical phonons are studied in a semiconductor double heterostructure (SDH) by means of a generalization of a theory developed some years ago and based on a continuous medium model. The treatment considers the coupling of…

The nature of bosonic excitations in disordered materials has remained elusive due to the difficulties in defining key concepts such as quasi-particles in the presence of disorder. We report on the experimental observation of…

Polar phonons can induce electric fields in an adjacent layer, whether non-polar or polar, producing remote phonon scattering of electrons. Treatment of remote phonon scattering has been based on the dielectric continuum model which takes…

Path-integral approach to the tight-binding polaron is extended to multiple optical phonon modes of arbitrary dispersion and polarization. The non-linear lattice effects are neglected. Only one electron band is considered. The…
