The polaron binding energy E_{p} in undoped parent cuprates has been determined to be about 1.0 eV from the unconventional oxygen-isotope effect on the antiferromagnetic ordering temperature. The deduced value of E_{p} is in quantitative…

We investigate the structural modulations induced by optical excitation of a polar phonon mode in YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_7$, using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. We focus on the intense-excitation regime in which…

It is argued that the origin of the buckling of the CuO$_{2}$ planes in certain cuprates as well as the strong electron-phonon coupling of the $B_{1g}$ phonon is due to the electric field across the planes induced by atoms with different…

We report $ab~initio$ calculations of the electronic and vibrational properties in CuPb$_9$(PO$_4$)$_6$O, including the electron-phonon coupling strength via strong-coupling Migdal-Eliashberg theory. We verify the presence of appealing flat…

The electron-phonon interaction is a major factor influencing the competition between collective instabilities in correlated-electron materials, but its role in driving high-temperature superconductivity in the cuprates remains poorly…

Developing a theory of high-temperature superconductivity in copper oxides is one of the outstanding problems in physics. It is a challenge that has defeated theoretical physicists for more than twenty years. Attempts to understand this…

An inelastic neutron scattering experiment has been performed in the high-temperature superconductor $\rm YBa_2Cu_3O_{6.89}$ to search for an oxygen-isotope shift of the well-known magnetic resonance mode at 41 meV. Contrary to a recent…

We study the temperature dependence of the low energy phonons in the $(H, 0, L)$ reciprocal plane of the highly ordered ortho-II YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6.55}$ cuprate high temperature superconductor by means of high-resolution inelastic x-ray…

Using the large-$N$ limit of the $t$-$J$ model and allowing also for phonons and the electron-phonon interaction we study the isotope effect $\alpha$ for coupling constants appropriate for YBCO. We find that $\alpha$ has a minimum at…

Optical excitation of large-amplitude apical oxygen phonon oscillations has been shown to renormalize the electronic properties of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$, inducing a superconducting-like optical response above equilibrium $T_C$. All of the…

How electron-phonon interactions influence high-temperature superconductivity in cuprates remains contested, and their role outside the CuO$_2$ planes has been largely overlooked. The most conspicuous evidence for such coupling is the…

Motivated by predictions of a substantial contribution of the "buckling" vibration of the CuO2 layers to d-wave superconductivity in the cuprates, we have performed an inelastic neutron scattering study of this phonon in an array of…

Understanding the magnetic excitations in high-transition temperature (high-$T_c$) copper oxides is important because they may mediate the electron pairing for superconductivity. By determining the wavevector ({\bf Q}) and energy…

We present a first principles investigation of the lattice dynamics and electron-phonon coupling of the high-T_c superconductor YBa_2Cu_3O_7 within the framework of density functional perturbation theory using a mixed-basis pseudopotential…

Despite the intensive efforts for determining the mechanism that causes high-temperature superconductivity in copper oxide materials, no consensus on the pairing mechanism has been reached. Recent advances in high resolution angle-resolved…

We explore manifestations of electron-phonon coupling on the electron spectral function for two phonon modes in the cuprates exhibiting strong renormalizations with temperature and doping. Applying simple symmetry considerations and…

The model for the cuprates based on the modified electron-phonon pairing mechanism has been tested. For this purpose, the superconductors with high value of the critical temperature have been taken into consideration. In particular: ${\rm…

We investigate the physical properties of the Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$BiO$_3$ compounds with a focus on the optical properties. Results from the simple Holstein model, describing a single band coupled to an oxygen breathing mode with parameters…

We investigate the interplay of the electron-phonon and the spin fluctuation interaction for the superconducting state of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7}$. The spin fluctuations are described within the nearly antiferromagnetic Fermi liquid theory,…

Magnetic measurements have been carried out in the superconducting and normal states of the optimally doped nonmagnetic bismuthate superconductor Ba0.63K0.37BiO3. The magnetic data along with previous muSR, resistivity, and tunneling data…
