The effect of in-plane strain on the nonlinear dielectric properties of SrTiO3 epitaxial thin films is calculated using density-functional theory within the local-density approximation. Motivated by recent experiments, the structure,…
Within standard treatments of the interacting electron--phonon system the electron density of states (EDOS) shows no sign of the phonons when the system is in the normal state. On the other hand, emergence of a fine energy scale in the…
We present a perturbative method for calculating phonon properties of an insulator in the presence of a finite electric field. The starting point is a variational total-energy functional with a field-coupling term that represents the effect…
Phonons change remarkable the interatomic bond length in solids and this work suggest a novel method how this behavior can be displayed and analyzed. The bond-length spectrum is plotted for each of the different atomic bonding types. When…
The nature of the lattice instability connected to the structural transition and superconductivity of (Sr,Ca)$_3$Ir$_4$Sn$_{13}$ is not yet fully understood. In this work density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the phonon…
The dielectric function method for superconductivity has been applied to SrTiO$_{3}$ accounting for the non-parabolic dispersion of charge carriers in the conduction band and for the dispersion of optical phonons based on density functional…
We present an \textit{ab initio} framework to calculate anharmonic phonon frequency and phonon lifetime that is applicable to severely anharmonic systems. We employ self-consistent phonon (SCPH) theory with microscopic anharmonic force…
We study a model SrTiO$_3$ interface in which conduction $t_{2g}$ electrons couple to the ferroelectric (FE) phonon mode. We treat the FE mode within a self-consistent phonon theory that captures its quantum critical behavior, and show that…
This article reviews the current status of lattice-dynamical calculations in crystals, using density-functional perturbation theory, with emphasis on the plane-wave pseudo-potential method. Several specialized topics are treated, including…
We study the electron and phonon spectral functions as well as superconductivity for a two dimensional electron gas couped to dipolar phonons via small-momentum transfer scattering. The results reported here are obtained through…
Here we report on an elastic and inelastic neutron scattering study addressing the effect of electric fields on quantum paraelectric SrTiO3. Our elastic scattering results find small changes as a function of field in a superlattice…
The emergence of phonon frequency combs exemplifies a rare and intriguing phenomenon in quantum solids. Materials with distinctive phonon band structures are especially promising for hosting such states, as their vibrational dispersion…
A full quantum mechanical theory for the spontaneous emission from excitons simultaneously coupled to electronic excitations and anharmonic phonons in solid is developed. Origin of detailed structures, such as zero-phonon line splitting,…
Surfaces and interfaces offer new possibilities for tailoring the many-body interactions that dominate the electrical and thermal properties of transition metal oxides. Here, we use the prototypical two-dimensional electron liquid (2DEL) at…
Defects in oxides usually exhibit exotic properties that may be associated with the local lattice dynamics. Here, at atomic spatial resolution, we directly measure phonon modes of an antiphase boundary (APB) in SrTiO3 freestanding membrane…
Unlike in ordinary metals, in graphene, phonon structure can be seen in the quasiparticle electronic density of states, because the latter varies on the scale of the phonon energy. In a magnetic field, quantization into Landau levels…
The soft ferro-electric phonon in SrTiO3 observed with optical spectroscopy has an extraordinary strong spectral weight which is much stronger than expected in the limit of a perfectly ionic compound. The "charged phonon" in SrTiO3 is…
Phonons are quantized vibrations of a crystal lattice that play a crucial role in understanding many properties of solids. Density functional theory (DFT) provides a state-of-the-art computational approach to lattice vibrations from…

Cuprates are promising candidates for study in developing higher temperature superconductors. A thorough understanding of a material's phonon modes enables further investigation of its emergent properties, however, no complete reference of…
