The thorough treatment of electron-lattice interactions from first principles is one of the main goals in condensed matter physics. While the commonly applied adiabatic Born-Oppenheimer approximation is sufficient for describing many…
This work presents an alternative, general, and in-principle exact extension of electronic Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) to the fully quantum-mechanical molecular problem. Unlike in existing multi-component or…
Phonon properties of realistic materials are routinely calculated within the Density Functional Perturbation Theory\,(DFPT). This is a semi--classical approach where the atoms are assumed to oscillate along classical trajectories immersed…
Phonons crucially impact a variety of properties of organic semiconductor materials. For instance, charge- and heat transport depend on low-frequency phonons, while for other properties, such as the free energy, especially high-frequency…
Density functional theory is generalized to incorporate electron-phonon coupling. A Kohn-Sham equation yielding the electronic density $n_U(\mathbf{r})$, a conditional probability density depending parametrically on the phonon normal mode…
We present in full detail a newly developed formalism enabling density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) calculations from a DFT+$U$ ground state. The implementation includes ultrasoft pseudopotentials and is valid for both insulating…
Fromager and Lasorne [Electron. Struct. 6 025002 (2024)] have recently derived an in-principle exact Kohn-Sham density functional theory (KS-DFT) of electrons and nuclei, where the nuclear density and the (so-called conditional) electronic…
Electron-phonon coupling (EPC) is key for understanding many properties of materials such as superconductivity and electric resistivity. Although first principles density-functional-theory (DFT) based EPC calculations are used widely, their…
When a molecule dissociates, the exact Kohn-Sham (KS) and Pauli potentials may form step structures. Reproducing these steps correctly is central for the description of dissociation and charge-transfer processes in density functional theory…
We present a novel nonadiabatic perturbation theory (NAPT) for correlated systems of electrons and nuclei beyond the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation. The essence of the method is to exploit the smallness of the electronic-to-nuclear…
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…
Strain-regulated ferroelectric (FE) materials have long attracted significant attention due to their diverse applications. While soft-phonon theory and the (pseudo) Jahn-Teller effect have achieved considerable success in providing…
We formulate an ab initio downfolding scheme for electron-phonon coupled systems. In this scheme, we calculate partially renormalized phonon frequencies and electron-phonon coupling, which include the screening effects of high-energy…
We present a computational protocol, based on density matrix perturbation theory, to obtain non-adiabatic, frequency-dependent electron-phonon self-energies for molecules and solids. Our approach enables the evaluation of electron-phonon…
The ab initio computational method known as Hubbard-corrected density functional theory (DFT+$U$) captures well ground electronic structures of a set of solids that are poorly described by standard DFT alone. Since lattice dynamical…
We present an accurate local density-functional for electronic-structure calculations within the density functional theory (DFT). The functional is derived by analyzing the structure of the standard perturbative expansion of the correlation…
We study the lattice dynamics of iron superconductor FeSe, and address the fundamental question of how important is proper description of fluctuating magnetic moments in metallic systems for phonon dispersion and phonon density of states.…
The high-frequency Raman-active phonon modes of metallic single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are thought to be characterized by Kohn anomalies (KAs), which are expected to be modified by the doping-induced tuning of the Fermi energy…
We extend to strongly correlated molecular systems the recently introduced basis-set incompleteness correction based on density-functional theory (DFT) [E. Giner et al., J. Chem. Phys. 149, 194301 (2018)]. This basis-set correction relies…
Nonadiabatic effects in chemical reaction at metal surfaces, due to excitation of electron-hole pairs, stand at the frontier of the studies of gas-surface reaction dynamics. However, the first principles description of electronic excitation…
