This article reviews the theory of electron-phonon interactions in solids from the point of view
of ab initio calculations. While the electron-phonon interaction has been studied for almost a …

In the past decade, resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) has made remarkable progress
as a spectroscopic technique. This is a direct result of the availability of high-brilliance …

Calculating perturbation response properties of materials from first principles provides a vital
link between theory and experiment, but is bottlenecked by the high computational cost …

The high pressure structures, metallization and superconductivity of recently synthesized H2-
containing compounds (H2S) 2H2 are elucidated by ab initio calculations. The ordered …

Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is a prototype molecular system and a sister molecule of water (H 2
O). The phase diagram of solid H 2 S at high pressures remains largely unexplored arising …

We use first-principles calculations to study structural, vibrational, and superconducting
properties of H 2 S at pressures P≥ 200 GPa. The inclusion of zero-point energy leads to …

The author reviews some of the important successes achieved by Eliashberg theory in
describing the observed superconducting properties of many conventional superconductors …

If electrons in a metal are heated to a temperature T e greater than the lattice temperature
TL, the electron-phonon interaction causes temperature relaxation dT e/dt= γ T (T LT e) …

Elemental materials provide clean and fundamental platforms for studying superconductivity.
However, the highest superconducting critical temperature (T c) yet observed in elements …

We introduce a technique based on the spatial localization of electron and phonon Wannier
functions to perform first-principles calculations of the electron-phonon interaction with an …
