We develop a theoretical and computational framework to study polarons in semiconductors and insulators from first principles. Our approach provides the formation energy, excitation energy, and wavefunction of both electron and hole…

Polar optical phonons are studied in the framework of the dielectric continuum approach for a prototypical quantum-dot/quantum-well (QD/QW) heterostructure, including the derivation of the electron-phonon interaction Hamiltonian and a…

We use determinant quantum Monte Carlo to study the single particle properties of quasiparticles and phonons in a variant of the two-dimensional Holstein model that includes an additional non-linear electron-phonon (e-ph) interaction. We…

Within the variational polaron equation framework, the Fr\"ohlich model for cubic systems with three-fold degenerate electronic bands is numerically solved in the strong coupling regime, for a wide range of its input parameters. By…

We describe quantum entanglement inherent to the polaron ground states of coupled electron-phonon (or, more generally, particle-phonon) systems based on a model comprising both local (Holstein-type) and nonlocal (Peierls-type) coupling. We…

The polaron concept captures physical situations involving an itinerant quantum particle (excitation) that interacts strongly with bosonic degrees of freedom and becomes heavily boson-dressed. While the Gerlach-L\"{o}wen theorem rules out…

In compound semiconductors and insulators, the polar electron-phonon coupling diverges at long range, known as the Fr\"ohlich interaction. Modern first-principles electron-phonon calculations treat the Fr\"ohlich interaction in a…

The formation of a polaron quasiparticle from a bare electron is studied in the framework of the Holstein model of electron-phonon coupling. Using Schr\"{o}dinger's formalism, we calculate the time evolution of the distribution of the…

The electronic structure of condensed matter can be significantly affected by the electron-phonon interaction, leading to important phenomena such as electrical resistance, superconductivity or the formation of polarons. This interaction is…

The Fr\"ohlich model describes the interaction of a mobile impurity with a surrounding bath of phonons which leads to the formation of a quasiparticle, the polaron. In this article an efficient renormalization group approach is presented…

We include the treatment of quadrupolar fields beyond the Fr\"ohlich interaction in the first-principles electron-phonon vertex in semiconductors. Such quadrupolar fields induce long-range interactions that have to be taken into account for…

Electron-phonon coupling, diagonal in a real space formulation, leads to polaron paradigm of smoothly varying properties. However, fundamental changes, namely the singular behavior of polarons, occur if non-diagonal pairing is involved into…

Polarons, that is, charge carriers correlated with lattice deformations, are ubiquitous quasiparticles in semiconductors, and play an important role in electrical conductivity. To date most theoretical studies of so-called large polarons,…

Van der Waals heterostructures, vertical stacks of layered materials, offer newopportunities for novel quantum phenomena which are absent in their constituent components. Here we report the emergence of polaron quasiparticles at the…

We discuss phonon-induced non-Markovian and Markovian features in QD-based optics. We cover lineshapes in linear absorption experiments, phonon-induced incoherence in the Heitler regime, and memory correlations in two-photon coherences. To…

We present a detailed and self-contained theoretical study of polarons in two-dimensional (2D) polar materials, which extends the classical macroscopic theory of Fr\"ohlich polarons to the 2D case. The theory is fully determined by…

We present a novel approach to electron-lattice interaction beyond the linear-coupling regime. Based on the solution of a Holstein-Peierls-type model, we derive explicit analytical expressions for the eigenvalue spectrum of the Hamiltonian,…

We propose an analog superconducting quantum simulator for a one-dimensional model featuring momentum-dependent (nonlocal) electron-phonon couplings of Su-Schrieffer-Heeger and "breathing-mode" types. Because its corresponding vertex…

We introduce a variational wave-function to study the polaron formation when the electronic transfer integral depends on the relative displacement between nearest-neighbor sites giving rise to a non-local electron-phonon coupling with…

Multiphonon processes in a model quantum dot (QD) containing two electronic states and several optical phonon modes are considered taking into account both intra- and inter-level terms. The Hamiltonian is exactly diagonalized including a…
