The bulk photovoltaic effect is a photocurrent generation from alternating electric field, which is a promising candidate for future efficient solar cell technology. It is the second-order optical current, which is the injection current or…
Shift current---a photocurrent induced by light irradiating noncentrosymmetric materials in the absence of any bias voltage or built-in electric field---is one of the mechanisms of the so-called bulk photovoltaic effect. It has been…
We investigate the shift current bulk photovoltaic response of materials close to a band inversion topological phase transition. We find that the bulk photocurrent reverses direction across the band inversion transition, and that its…
We compute the shift current bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) in bulk BaTiO$_3$ and two-dimensional monochalcogenide SnSe considering quasi-particle corrections and exciton effects. We explore changes in shift current peak position and…
Realization of giant and continuously tunable second-order photocurrent is desired for many nonlinear optical (NLO) and optoelectronic applications, which remains to be a great challenge. Here, based on a simple two-band model, we propose a…
The shift current effect, in materials lacking inversion symmetry, may potentially allow the performance of photovoltaics to surpass the Shockley-Queisser limit for traditional p-n junction-based photovoltaics. Although the shift-current…
The bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) refers to the phenomenon of generating photocurrent or photovoltage in homogeneous noncentrosymmetric materials under illumination, and the intrinsic contribution to the BPVE is known as the shift current…
Shift current and ballistic current have been proposed to explain the bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE), and there have been experiments designed to separate the two mechanisms. These experiments are based on the assumption that under…
The correlation between the shift current mechanism for the bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) and the structural and electronic properties of ferroelectric perovskite oxides is not well understood. Here, we study and engineer the shift…
Steady illumination of a non-centrosymmetric semiconductor results in a bulk photovoltaic current, which is contributed by real-space displacements (`shifts') of charged quasiparticles as they transit between Bloch states. The shift induced…
We discuss the photovoltaic effect at a p-n heterojunction, in which the illuminated side is a doped Mott insulator, using the simplest description of a Mott insulator within the Hubbard model. We find that the internal quantum efficiency…

Flat bands typically describe energy bands whose energy dispersion is entirely or almost entirely degenerate. One effective method to form flat bands is by constructing Moir\'e superlattices. Recently, there has been a shift in perspective…
This paper presents a study of dc photocurrents in biased insulators to the third order in the electric field. We find three photocurrents which are characterized by physical divergences of the third-order free-electron polarization…
We analyze the effect of acoustic phonons on the photocurrent and the spectral characteristics of a simplified photovoltaic setup made of Mott insulating layers between two metallic leads among which a bias voltage is applied. We include…
A bulk material without inversion symmetry can generate a direct current under illumination. This interface-free current generation mechanism, referred to as the bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE), does not rely on $p$-$n$ junctions. Here, we…
The Mott insulator provides an excellent foundation for exploring a wide range of strongly correlated physical phenomena, such as high-temperature superconductivity, quantum spin liquid, and colossal magnetoresistance. A Mott insulator with…
