The Born effective charge Z^{*} and dielectric tensor \epsilon_{\infty} of KNbO_3 are found to be very sensitive to the atomic geometry, changing by as much as 27% between the paraelectric cubic and ferroelectric tetragonal and rhombohedral…
We report the first principles investigations on the phonons of three polytypes of BaTiO3 (BTO): paraelectric (PE) cubic Pm-3m and two ferroelectric (FE) phases, tetragonal P4mm and rhombohedral R3m. The phonon frequencies calculated using…
It is shown that dynamical screening of the Coulomb interaction in LaCuO leads to low-energy electronic collective excitations in a small region around the c-axis, strongly mixing with interlayer phonons. The manifestation of such a…
We explore the effect of charge carrier doping on ferroelectricity using density functional calculations and phenomenological modeling. By considering a prototypical ferroelectric material, BaTiO3, we demonstrate that ferroelectric…
The phonon dispersion curves of cubic BaTiO_3 have been computed within a first-principles approach and the results compared to the experimental data. The curves obtained are very similar to those reported for KNbO_3 by Yu and Krakauer…
The dynamic structures of the cubic and tetragonal phase in BaTiO3 and its dielectric response above the cubic-to-tetragonal phase transition temperature (Tp) are studied by first-principles molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. It's shown…
In this study, we investigate the formation of electron and hole small polarons in the prototypical ferroelectric material BaTiO3, with a focus on their interaction with ferroelectric distortive fields. To accurately describe the…
We study the impact of electron-phonon interactions on the many-body instabilities of electrons on the honeycomb lattice and their interplay with repulsive local and non-local Coulomb interactions at charge neutrality. To that end, we…
Dielectric tensor and lattice dynamics of alpha-PbO2-type TiO2 have been investigated using the density functional perturbation theory, with a focus on responses of the vibrational frequencies to pressure. The calculated Raman spectra under…
We re-examine the effect of long-range Coulomb interactions on the collective amplitude and phase modes in the incommensurate charge-density-wave ground state of quasi-one-dimensional conductors. Using an effective action approach we show…
Group theoretical aspects of the three temperature-dependent and temperature-reversible experimentally observed phase transitions in the KNbO3 crystal (cubic-tetragonal, tetragonal-orthorhombic, orthorhombic-rhombohedral) in the framework…
We investigate the instabilities that may lead to the breakdown of the Luttinger liquid in the small-diameter (5,0) nanotubes, paying attention to the competition between the effective interaction mediated by phonon-exchange and the Coulomb…
A first-principles study of the vibrational modes of PbTiO_3 in the ferroelectric tetragonal phase has been performed at all the main symmetry points of the Brillouin zone (BZ). The calculations use the local-density approximation and…
SrTiO$_3$ has been extensively investigated owing to its abundant degrees of freedom for modulation. However, the microscopic mechanism of thermal transport especially the relationship between phonon scattering and lattice distortion during…
Using {\it ab initio} approaches for extended Hubbard interactions coupled to phonons, we reveal that the intersite Coulomb interaction plays important roles in determining various distinctive phases of the paradigmatic charge ordered…
We study systems made of periodic arrays of one dimensional quantum wires, coupled by Coulomb interaction. Using bosonization an interacting metallic fixed point is obtained, which is shown to be a higher dimensional analogue of the…
The frequencies of transverse-optical $\Gamma$ phonons in KNbO$_3$ and KTaO$_3$ are calculated in the frozen-phonon scheme making use of the full-potential linearized muffin-tin orbital method. The calculated frequencies in the cubic phase…
BaTiO3 is a classical ferroelectric studied for last one century for its ferroelectric properties. Lattice dynamics of BaTiO3 is crucial as the utility of devices is governed by phonons. In this work, we show that traditional…
We study the quantum many-body ground states of electrons on the half-filled honeycomb lattice with short- and long-ranged density-density interactions as a model for graphene. To this end, we employ the recently developed truncated-unity…
