This paper reports the first experimental observation of phonons and their softening on single crystalline LaPt$_2$Si$_2$ via inelastic neutron scattering. From the temperature dependence of the phonon frequency in close proximity to the…
We study the electron transport in a deformable lattice modeled in the semiclassical approximation as a discrete nonlinear elastic chain where acoustic phonons are in thermal equilibrium at temperature T. We reveal that an effective dynamic…
A short-time dynamic approach to weak first order phase transitions is proposed. Taking the 2-dimensional Potts models as examples, from short-time behaviour of non-equilibrium relaxational processes starting from high temperature and zero…
We describe the nonzero temperature (T), low frequency (\omega) dynamics of the order parameter near quantum critical points in two spatial dimensions (d), with a special focus on the regime \hbar\omega << k_B T. For the case of a…
Coherently splitting a one-dimensional Bose gas provides an attractive, experimentally estab- lished platform to investigate many-body quantum dynamics. At short enough times, the dynamics is dominated by the dephasing of single…
We calculate the low temperature properties of an acoustic polaron in three dimensions in thermal equilibrium at a given temperature using a specialized path integral Monte Carlo method. In particular we find numerical evidence that the…
We emphasize the role of temperature in explaining the IV ovonic threshold switching curve of amorphous phase change materials. The Poole-Frankel conduction model is supplemented by considering effects of temperature on the conductivity in…
Recent theory has predicted large temperature differences between the in-plane (LA and TA) and out-of-plane (ZA) acoustic phonon baths in locally-heated suspended graphene. To verify these predictions, and their implications for…
The phonon dispersion and the electron-phonon interaction for the $\beta$-Po and the bcc high pressure phases of tellurium are computed with density-functional perturbation theory. Our calculations reproduce and explain the experimentally…
The significance of thermal fluctuations on nucleation in structural first-order phase transitions has been examined. The prototype case of martensitic transitions has been experimentally investigated by means of acoustic emission…
At low temperature a thermodynamic system undergoes a phase transition when a physical parameter passes through a singularity point of the free energy, corresponding to formation of a new order. At high temperature the thermal fluctuations…
An asymptotic low-temperature expansion is performed for an integrable bosonic lattice model and for the critical spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain in a magnetic field. The results apply to the integrable Bose gas as well. We also comment on a…
The temperature dependence of phonon-induced resistance oscillations has been investigated in two-dimensional electron system with moderate mobility at large filling factors at temperature range T = 7.4 - 25.4 K. The amplitude of…
We investigate relaxation dynamics along the entire first-order phase transition line by analyzing the time evolution of the free energy landscape in the three-dimensional kinetic Ising model. Near the critical temperature $T_{\rm c}$, the…
We present temperature dependent inelastic neutron scattering measurments, accompanied byab-initio calculations of phonon spectra and elastic properties as a function of pressure to understand anharmonicity of phonons and to study the…
Thermal transport in solids changes its nature from phonon propagation that suffers from perturbative scattering to thermally activated hops between localized vibrational modes as the level of disorder increases. Models have been proposed…
The low-temperature properties and crossover phenomena of $d$-dimensional transverse Ising-like systems within the influence domain of the quantum critical point are investigated solving the appropriate one-loop renormalization group…
While the vibrational thermodynamics of materials with small anharmonicity at low temperatures has been understood well based on the harmonic phonons approximation; at high temperatures, this understanding must accommodate how phonons…
An asymmetric generalization of the zero-temperature q-state Potts model on a one dimensional lattice, with and without boundaries, has been studied. The dynamics of the particle number, and specially the large time behavior of the system…
Experimental results that BaIn2As2 and Ca(Sr)In2As2, which are the same class of alkali metal compounds, belong to different structural phases have puzzled the current materials physics community. Here, we investigate the pressure-induced…
