Introduction to the electron phonon renormalization of the electronic band structure

Editor's Notes

  1. H e' quella elettronica della DFT. Fermiarmi al 2 ordine → expansione armonica significa assumere che le frquenze fononiche non dipendono dal volume del cristallo, quindi non sto tenendo conto di effetti anarmonici che sono legati all'expansione termica.
  2. Cambio di base: cartesiane → fonone displacement k-q
  3. Cambio di base: cartesiane → fonone displacement k-q
  4. C, N, O .. have no p-electrons in the core and the p valence electrons, as the atoms vibrate, can get much closer to the core than in cases where p-electrons are present in the core: germanium, silicon, GaAs…. The dipendence of the gap at high temperatures is linear and then it deviates because of quantum effects. Classically the gap correction is equal to zero, than at T=0 the intersection yields the electronic gap.
  5. Path integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) is a method of incorporating quantum mechanics into molecular dynamics simulations using Feynman path integrals. Such simulations are particularly useful for studying nuclear quantum effects in light atoms and molecules such as hydrogen, helium, neon and argon, as well as in quantum rotators such as methane and hydrogen bonded systems such as water. In PIMD, one uses the Born–Oppenheimer approximation to separate the wavefunction into a nuclear part and an electronic part. The nuclei are treated quantum mechanically by mapping each quantum nuclei onto a classical system of several fictitious particles connected by springs (harmonic potentials) and governed by an effective Hamiltonian
