The comparably high mass of the muon (≈ 207 · me\r\n \ ) has two important effects, (i) the reduced mass of the system becomes more important, and (ii) the muon is localized much closer to the nucleus. Thus, muonic hydrogen is not only excellently suitable for evaluating highly precise quantum electrodynamic (QED) calculations, but may also be used for assessing new approaches including finite nuclear size (FNS) effects to evaluate the proton structure and improve calculation schemes for the hyperfine splittings of many-particle systems, as e.g. to be implemented in density functional theory (DFT) software packages. Here, starting from Dirac’s equation we calculate the relativistic hyperfine splitting of the ground state and several excited states of muonic hydrogen analytically for different charge and magnetization models. The FNS related hyperfine shifts are compared with the differences between QED calculations and experimental measurements. This comparison also allows to unravel the role of the reduced mass, which is on one hand crucial in case of muonic atoms, but on the other hand is by no means well defined in relativistic quantum mechanics." article_number: '012001' author: - first_name: Katharina L. full_name: Franzke, Katharina L. last_name: Franzke - 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: 'Franzke KL, Schmidt WG, Gerstmann U.

Especially for 2D materials, the atomic electric fields influence the optoelectronic properties. In this study, the atomic‐scale electric field and charge density distribution of WSe2 bi‐ and trilayers are revealed using an emerging microscopy technique, differential phase contrast (DPC) imaging in scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). For pristine material, a higher positive charge density located at the selenium atomic columns compared to the tungsten atomic columns is obtained and tentatively explained by a coherent scattering effect. Furthermore, the change in the electric field distribution induced by a missing selenium atomic column is investigated. A characteristic electric field distribution in the vicinity of the defect with locally reduced magnitudes compared to the pristine lattice is observed. This effect is accompanied by a considerable inward relaxation of the surrounding lattice, which according to first principles DFT calculation is fully compatible with a missing column of Se atoms. This shows that DPC imaging, as an electric field sensitive technique, provides additional and remarkable information to the otherwise only structural analysis obtained with conventional STEM imaging. article_type: original author: - first_name: Maja full_name: Groll, Maja last_name: Groll - first_name: Julius full_name: Bürger, Julius id: '46952' last_name: Bürger - first_name: Ioannis full_name: Caltzidis, Ioannis id: '87911' last_name: Caltzidis - first_name: Klaus D. full_name: Jöns, Klaus D. id: '85353' last_name: Jöns - 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 - first_name: Jörg K.

Therefore, we here derive a rigorous, non-perturbative scheme starting from Dirac’s equation which allows to calculate the contribution of the orbital HFI for complex structures including heavy atoms with strong spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Using the PAW formalism, the method has been implemented in the software package Quantum ESPRESSO. We show that the ‘orbital part’ actually scales with SOC strength if orbital quenching is hindered by low local symmetry, i.e. in case of dimers or atoms at surfaces. This holds true in particular when the unpaired electron is localized in quasi-atomic p-like orbitals. Here, the orbital part is by far not negligible, but becomes dominant by surpassing the dipolar contribution by a factor of five." article_number: '012094' author: - first_name: Katharina full_name: Franzke, Katharina last_name: Franzke - 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: 'Franzke K, Schmidt WG, Gerstmann U.

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.

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.
