Fröhlich Electron-Phonon Vertex from First Principles

Open access
Verdi, Carla, Giustino, Feliciano·2015·Physical Review Letters

Abstract

We develop a method for calculating the electron-phonon vertex in polar semiconductors and insulators from first principles. The present formalism generalizes the Fröhlich vertex to the case of anisotropic materials and multiple phonon branches, and can be used either as a postprocessing correction to standard electron-phonon calculations, or in conjunction with ab initio interpolation based on maximally localized Wannier functions. We demonstrate this formalism by investigating the electron-phonon interactions in anatase TiO(2), and show that the polar vertex significantly reduces the electron lifetimes and enhances the anisotropy of the coupling. The present work enables ab initio calculations of carrier mobilities, lifetimes, mass enhancement, and pairing in polar materials.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
