The fabrication of low-loss optical waveguides, as well as high-grade periodically poled ferroelectric domain structures, requires a profound understanding of the material properties and crystal structure. In this regard, Raman spectroscopy offers the possibility to study and visualize domain structures, strain, defects, and the local stoichiometry, which are all factors impacting device performance. However, the accurate interpretation of Raman spectra and their changes with respect to extrinsic and intrinsic defects requires a thorough assignment of the Raman modes to their respective crystal features, which to date is only partly conducted based on phenomenological modelling. To address this issue, we calculated the phonon spectra of potassium titanyl phosphate and the related compounds rubidium titanyl phosphate (RbTiOPO4) and potassium titanyl arsenate (KTiOAsO4) based on density functional theory and compared them with experimental data. Overall, this allows us to assign various spectral features to eigenmodes of lattice substructures with improved detail compared to previous assignments. Nevertheless, the analysis also shows that not all features of the spectra can unambigiously be explained yet. A possible explanation might be that defects or long range fields not included in the modeling play a crucial rule for the resulting Raman spectrum. In conclusion, this work provides an improved foundation into the vibrational properties in the KTiOPO4 material family. article_number: '1423' author: - first_name: Sergej full_name: Neufeld, Sergej last_name: Neufeld - first_name: Uwe full_name: Gerstmann, Uwe id: '171' last_name: Gerstmann orcid: 0000-0002-4476-223X - first_name: Laura full_name: Padberg, Laura id: '40300' last_name: Padberg - first_name: Christof full_name: Eigner, Christof id: '13244' last_name: Eigner orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083 - first_name: Gerhard full_name: Berth, Gerhard id: '53' last_name: Berth - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn - first_name: Lukas M. full_name: Eng, Lukas M. last_name: Eng - first_name: Wolf Gero full_name: Schmidt, Wolf Gero id: '468' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-2717-5076 - first_name: Michael full_name: Rüsing, Michael id: '22501' last_name: Rüsing orcid: 0000-0003-4682-4577 citation: ama: Neufeld S, Gerstmann U, Padberg L, et al.

In this theoretical study, we characterize the structural properties of a novel material, i.e., F-doped RbTiOPO4 (RbTiPO4F, RTP:F), and discuss aspects of its electrochemical performance in Rb-ion batteries (RIBs) using density functional theory (DFT). According to our calculations, RTP:F is expected to retain the so-called KTiOPO4 (KTP)-type structure, with lattice parameters of 13.236 Å, 6.616 Å, and 10.945 Å. Due to the doping with F, the crystal features eight extra electrons per unit cell, whereby each of these electrons is trapped by one of the surrounding Ti atoms in the cell. Notably, the ground state of the system corresponds to a ferromagnetic spin configuration (i.e., S=4). The deintercalation of Rb leads to the oxidation of the Ti atoms in the cell (i.e., from Ti3+ to Ti4+) and to reduced magnetic moments. The material promises interesting electrochemical properties for the cathode: rather high average voltages above 2.8 V and modest volume shrinkages below 13% even in the fully deintercalated case are predicted.' article_number: '5' author: - first_name: Adriana full_name: Bocchini, Adriana id: '58349' last_name: Bocchini orcid: 0000-0002-2134-3075 - first_name: Yingjie full_name: Xie, Yingjie last_name: Xie - first_name: Wolf Gero full_name: Schmidt, Wolf Gero id: '468' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-2717-5076 - first_name: Uwe full_name: Gerstmann, Uwe id: '171' last_name: Gerstmann orcid: 0000-0002-4476-223X citation: ama: Bocchini A, Xie Y, Schmidt WG, Gerstmann U.

As quantum applications based on a polarization transfer from the electron spin to the nuclei require the knowledge of the electron–nuclear interaction parameters, we have used high-frequency (94 GHz) electron–nuclear double resonance spectroscopy combined with first-principles density functional theory to investigate the hyperfine and nuclear quadrupole interactions of the basal and axial NV centers. We observed that the four inequivalent NV configurations (hk, kh, hh, and kk) exhibit different electron–nuclear interaction parameters, suggesting that each NV center may act as a separate optically addressable qubit. Finally, we rationalized the observed differences in terms of distinctions in the local atomic structures of the NV configurations. Thus, our results provide the basic knowledge for an extension of quantum protocols involving the 14N nuclear spin. author: - first_name: F. F. full_name: Murzakhanov, F.

These calculations are compared concerning the available experimental observations on pristine TiO$\rm{_2}$ crystals. Modified hybrid functionals, particularly the PBE0 functional with 11.4% fraction of exact exchange, are shown to provide highly accurate atomic structures and also accurate electronic structure data, including optical excitation energies. With $\rm{DFT+U}$, accurate optical spectra are also possible, but only if the Hubbard U is applied on the O $\rm2p$ electrons exclusively. Furthermore, both methods, the 11.4%-PBE0 hybrid functional and the $\rm{DFT+U_p}$ scheme have been used to study TiO$\rm{_2}$ amorphous ultra-thin films, confirming the agreement of the two methods even with respect to small details of the optical spectra. Our results show that the proposed $\rm{DFT+U_p}$ methodology is computationally efficient, but still accurate. It can be applied to well-ordered TiO$\rm{_2}$ polymorphs as well as to amorphous TiO$\rm{_2}$ and will allow for the calculations of complex titania-based structures. article_type: original author: - first_name: Sabuhi full_name: Badalov, Sabuhi id: '78800' last_name: Badalov orcid: 0000-0002-8481-4161 - first_name: Adriana full_name: Bocchini, Adriana id: '58349' last_name: Bocchini orcid: 0000-0002-2134-3075 - first_name: Rene full_name: Wilhelm, Rene last_name: Wilhelm - first_name: A.

In this work, the formation of (defect) bound polarons in lithium niobate is studied by ab initio molecular dynamics. The calculations show a broad scatter of polaron formation times. Rising temperature increases the share of trajectories with long formation times, which leads to an overall increase of the average formation time with temperature. However, even at elevated temperatures, the average formation time does not exceed the value of 100 femtoseconds, i.e., a value close to the time measured for free, i.e., self-trapped polarons. Analyzing individual trajectories, it is found that the time required for the structural relaxation of the polarons depends sensitively on the excitation of the lithium niobate high-frequency phonon modes and their phase relation. author: - first_name: Marvin full_name: Krenz, Marvin id: '52309' last_name: Krenz - first_name: Uwe full_name: Gerstmann, Uwe id: '171' last_name: Gerstmann orcid: 0000-0002-4476-223X - first_name: Wolf Gero full_name: Schmidt, Wolf Gero id: '468' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-2717-5076 citation: ama: Krenz M, Gerstmann U, Schmidt WG.

Furthermore, we create so-called gray tracking in KTP and investigate the ionic conductivity in theses areas. A local unintended reduction of the ionic conductivity is observed in the gray-tracked regions, which also induce additional optical absorption in the material. We show that a thermal treatment in an oxygen-rich atmosphere removes the gray tracking and brings the ionic conductivity as well as the optical transmission back to the original level. These studies can help to choose the best material and treatment for specific applications. author: - first_name: Laura full_name: Padberg, Laura id: '40300' last_name: Padberg - first_name: Viktor full_name: Quiring, Viktor last_name: Quiring - first_name: Adriana full_name: Bocchini, Adriana id: '58349' last_name: Bocchini orcid: 0000-0002-2134-3075 - first_name: Matteo full_name: Santandrea, Matteo id: '55095' last_name: Santandrea orcid: 0000-0001-5718-358X - first_name: Uwe full_name: Gerstmann, Uwe id: '171' last_name: Gerstmann orcid: 0000-0002-4476-223X - first_name: Wolf Gero full_name: Schmidt, Wolf Gero id: '468' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-2717-5076 - first_name: Christine full_name: Silberhorn, Christine id: '26263' last_name: Silberhorn - first_name: Christof full_name: Eigner, Christof id: '13244' last_name: Eigner orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083 citation: ama: 'Padberg L, Quiring V, Bocchini A, et al.

We find three principal configurations of hole polarons: (i) self-trapped holes localized at displaced regular oxygen atoms and (ii) two other configurations bound to a lithium vacancy either at a threefold coordinated oxygen atom above or at a two-fold coordinated oxygen atom below the defect. The latter is the most stable and is in excellent quantitative agreement with measured g factors from electron paramagnetic resonance. Due to the absence of mid-gap states, none of these hole polarons can explain the broad optical absorption centered between 2.5 and 2.8 eV that is observed in transient absorption spectroscopy, but such states appear if a free electron polaron is trapped at the same lithium vacancy as the bound hole polaron, resulting in an exciton polaron. The dielectric function calculated by solving the Bethe–Salpeter equation indeed yields an optical peak at 2.6 eV in agreement with the two-photon experiments. The coexistence of hole and exciton polarons, which are simultaneously created in optical excitations, thus satisfactorily explains the reported experimental data.' article_number: '1586' article_type: original author: - first_name: Falko full_name: Schmidt, Falko id: '35251' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-5071-5528 - first_name: Agnieszka L. full_name: Kozub, Agnieszka L. id: '77566' last_name: Kozub orcid: 0000-0001-6584-0201 - first_name: Uwe full_name: Gerstmann, Uwe id: '171' last_name: Gerstmann orcid: 0000-0002-4476-223X - first_name: Wolf Gero full_name: Schmidt, Wolf Gero id: '468' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-2717-5076 - first_name: Arno full_name: Schindlmayr, Arno id: '458' last_name: Schindlmayr orcid: 0000-0002-4855-071X citation: ama: Schmidt F, Kozub AL, Gerstmann U, Schmidt WG, Schindlmayr A.

In this study, a variety of electron polarons, namely free, bound, and bipolarons, are analyzed using first-principles calculations. We perform a full structural optimization based on density-functional theory for selected intrinsic defects with special attention to the role of symmetry-breaking distortions that lower the total energy. The cations hosting the various polarons relax to a different degree, with a larger relaxation corresponding to a larger gap between the defect level and the conduction-band edge. The projected density of states reveals that the polaron states are formerly empty Nb 4d states lowered into the band gap. Optical absorption spectra are derived within the independent-particle approximation, corrected by the GW approximation that yields a wider band gap and by including excitonic effects within the Bethe-Salpeter equation. Comparing the calculated spectra with the density of states, we find that the defect peak observed in the optical absorption stems from transitions between the defect level and a continuum of empty Nb 4d states. Signatures of polarons are further analyzed in the reflectivity and other experimentally measurable optical coefficients. author: - first_name: Falko full_name: Schmidt, Falko id: '35251' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-5071-5528 - first_name: Agnieszka L. full_name: Kozub, Agnieszka L. id: '77566' last_name: Kozub orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6584-0201 - first_name: Uwe full_name: Gerstmann, Uwe id: '171' last_name: Gerstmann orcid: 0000-0002-4476-223X - first_name: Wolf Gero full_name: Schmidt, Wolf Gero id: '468' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-2717-5076 - first_name: Arno full_name: Schindlmayr, Arno id: '458' last_name: Schindlmayr orcid: 0000-0002-4855-071X citation: ama: 'Schmidt F, Kozub AL, Gerstmann U, Schmidt WG, Schindlmayr A.

In this study, a variety of electron polarons, namely free, bound, and bipolarons, are analyzed using first-principles calculations. We perform a full structural optimization based on density-functional theory for selected intrinsic defects with special attention to the role of symmetry-breaking distortions that lower the total energy. The cations hosting the various polarons relax to a different degree, with a larger relaxation corresponding to a larger gap between the defect level and the conduction-band edge. The projected density of states reveals that the polaron states are formerly empty Nb 4d states lowered into the band gap. Optical absorption spectra are derived within the independent-particle approximation, corrected by the GW approximation that yields a wider band gap and by including excitonic effects within the Bethe-Salpeter equation. Comparing the calculated spectra with the density of states, we find that the defect peak observed in the optical absorption stems from transitions between the defect level and a continuum of empty Nb 4d states. Signatures of polarons are further analyzed in the reflectivity and other experimentally measurable optical coefficients. article_type: original author: - first_name: Falko full_name: Schmidt, Falko id: '35251' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-5071-5528 - first_name: Agnieszka L. full_name: Kozub, Agnieszka L. id: '77566' last_name: Kozub orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6584-0201 - first_name: Uwe full_name: Gerstmann, Uwe id: '171' last_name: Gerstmann orcid: 0000-0002-4476-223X - first_name: Wolf Gero full_name: Schmidt, Wolf Gero id: '468' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-2717-5076 - first_name: Arno full_name: Schindlmayr, Arno id: '458' last_name: Schindlmayr orcid: 0000-0002-4855-071X citation: ama: 'Schmidt F, Kozub AL, Gerstmann U, Schmidt WG, Schindlmayr A.

Defect trapped polarons and bipolarons are found to strongly enhance the nonlinear susceptibility of the material, in particular if localized at NbV–VLi defect pairs. This is essentially a consequence of the polaronic excitation resulting in relaxation-induced gap states. The occupation of these levels leads to strongly enhanced χ(2) coefficients and allows for the spatial and transient modification of the second-harmonic generation of macroscopic samples. article_type: original author: - first_name: Agnieszka L. full_name: Kozub, Agnieszka L. id: '77566' last_name: Kozub orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6584-0201 - first_name: Arno full_name: Schindlmayr, Arno id: '458' last_name: Schindlmayr orcid: 0000-0002-4855-071X - first_name: Uwe full_name: Gerstmann, Uwe id: '171' last_name: Gerstmann orcid: 0000-0002-4476-223X - first_name: Wolf Gero full_name: Schmidt, Wolf Gero id: '468' last_name: Schmidt orcid: 0000-0002-2717-5076 citation: ama: Kozub AL, Schindlmayr A, Gerstmann U, Schmidt WG.
