The self-trapping of exciton-polariton condensates is demonstrated and explained by the formation of a new polaron-like state. Above the polariton lasing threshold, local variation of the lattice temperature provides the mechanism for an…
We study here polaron (soliton) states of electrons or holes in a model describing carbon-type nanotubes. In the Hamiltonian of the system we take into account the electron-phonon interaction that arises from the deformation dependencies of…
The study of single-crystal Raman spectra of a series of crystalline secondary amides (acetanilide, methacetin, phenacetine, orthorhombic and monoclinic polymorphs of paracetamol) as well as simple amides formanilide and benzanilide in the…
The polaron is the archetypal example of a quasiparticle emerging from the interaction between fermionic and bosonic fields in quantum field theory. In crystalline solids, polarons are formed when electrons and holes become dressed by the…
The actinide elemental metals are scare, often toxic and radio active, causing challenges for both experiments and theory while offering fascinating physics. For practical purposes they are the prevalent building blocks for materials where…
In actinide systems, the 5f electrons experience a uniquely delicate balance of effects and interactions having similar energy scales, which are often difficult to properly disentangle. This interplay of factors such as the dual nature of…
A novel type of exciton-phonon bound state -- interlayer polaron -- in a double-layer two-dimensional semiconductor with transition metal dichalcogenides as an example, is predicted. In these systems the interaction of the interlayer…
Crystalline solids with extreme insulation often exhibit a plateau or even an upward-sloping tail in thermal conductivity above room temperature. Herein, we synthesized a crystalline material AgTl$_2$I$_3$ with an exceptionally low thermal…
We report nonresonant inelastic x-ray scattering from the semi-core 5d levels of several actinide compounds. Dipole-forbidden, high-multipole features form a rich bound-state spectrum dependent on valence electron configuration and…
We present the first numerically exact study of self-trapped, a.k.a. soliton, states of electrons that form in materials with strong quadratic coupling to the phonon coordinates. Previous studies failed to observe predictions based on the…
We study numerically self-trapped (polaron) states of quasiparticles (electrons, holes or excitons) in a deformable nanotube formed by a hexagonal lattice, wrapped into a cylinder (carbon- and boron nitride-type nanotube structures). We…
We describe a new type of spatially periodic structure (lattice models): a polaritonic crystal (PolC) formed by a two-dimensional lattice of trapped two-level atoms interacting with quantised electromagnetic field in a cavity (or in a…
An interacting pair of chemotactic (anti-chemotactic) active colloids, that can rotate their axes of self-propulsion to align {parallel (anti-parallel)} to a chemical gradient, shows dynamical behaviour that varies from bound states to…
We present a detailed numerical study of the one-dimensional Holstein model with a view to understanding the self-trapping process of electrons or excitons in crystals with short-range particle-lattice interactions. Applying a very…
We theoretically investigate the polaron physics of an impurity immersed in a two-dimensional Fermi sea, interacting via a p-wave interaction at finite temperature. In the unitary limit with a divergent scattering area, we find a…
The phase diagram of binary mixtures of particles interacting via a pair potential of parallel dipoles is computed at zero temperature as a function of composition and the ratio of their magnetic susceptibilities. Using lattice sums, a rich…
We show that geometrically coupled polariton condensates fabricated in semiconductor devices are versatile systems capable of simulating molecules with given characteristics. In particular, we consider oscillatory and stationary symmetric…
We demonstrate the spatial confinement of electronic excitations in a solid state system, within novel artificial structures that can be designed having arbitrary dimensionality and shape. The excitations under study are exciton-polaritons…
Today in many articles the polaron states are calculated in classical molecular chains for zero temperature. At the same time it is assumed that polaron properties do not change significantly, if the temperature is nonzero, but much smaller…
A state of an excitonic insulator with the electric current is studied. Initially, in the metallic phase, the electrons and holes are assumed to be moving in the opposite directions, so as the electric current exists. This state is…
