In this work, we use density-functional theory and Green's function methods to explore the microscopic structure and spectroscopic signatures of electron polarons in lithium niobate (LiNbO3). Total-energy calculations and the comparison of calculated electron paramagnetic resonance data with available measurements reveal the formation of bound \r\npolarons at Nb_Li antisite defects with a quasi-Jahn-Teller distorted, tilted configuration. The defect-formation energies further indicate that (bi)polarons may form not only at \r\nNb_Li antisites but also at structures where the antisite Nb atom moves into a neighboring empty oxygen octahedron. Based on these structure models, and on the calculated charge-transition levels and potential-energy barriers, we propose two mechanisms for the optical and thermal splitting of bipolarons, which provide a natural explanation for the reported two-path recombination of bipolarons. Optical-response calculations based on the Bethe-Salpeter equation, in combination with available experimental data and new measurements of the optical absorption spectrum, further corroborate the geometries proposed here for free and defect-bound (bi)polarons.","lang":"eng"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"043002","doi":"10.1103/PhysRevResearch.2.043002","author":[{"id":"35251","last_name":"Schmidt","orcid":"0000-0002-5071-5528","first_name":"Falko","full_name":"Schmidt, Falko"},{"orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6584-0201","last_name":"Kozub","first_name":"Agnieszka L.","full_name":"Kozub, Agnieszka L.","id":"77566"},{"last_name":"Biktagirov","first_name":"Timur","full_name":"Biktagirov, Timur","id":"65612"},{"last_name":"Eigner","first_name":"Christof","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5693-3083","full_name":"Eigner, Christof","id":"13244"},{"last_name":"Silberhorn","first_name":"Christine","full_name":"Silberhorn, Christine","id":"26263"},{"full_name":"Schindlmayr, Arno","last_name":"Schindlmayr","orcid":"0000-0002-4855-071X","first_name":"Arno","id":"458"},{"id":"468","orcid":"0000-0002-2717-5076","first_name":"Wolf Gero","last_name":"Schmidt","full_name":"Schmidt, Wolf Gero"},{"full_name":"Gerstmann, Uwe","last_name":"Gerstmann","orcid":"0000-0002-4476-223X","first_name":"Uwe","id":"171"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2643-1564"]},"title":"Free and defect-bound (bi)polarons in LiNbO3: Atomic structure and spectroscopic signatures from ab initio calculations","year":"2020","intvolume":"         2","article_type":"original","date_updated":"2023-04-20T16:06:21Z","publication_status":"published"},{"oa":"1","external_id":{"isi":["000467044000003"]},"quality_controlled":"1","project":[{"_id":"52","name":"Computing Resources Provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing"},{"_id":"53","name":"TRR 142"},{"name":"TRR 142 - Project Area B","_id":"55"},{"name":"TRR 142 - Subproject B4","_id":"69"},{"_id":"52","name":"PC2: Computing Resources Provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing"}],"file_date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:34:33Z","isi":"1","citation":{"ama":"Schmidt F, Riefer A, Schmidt WG, et al.

Starting from the relaxed atomic geometries, we analyze the influence of self-energy corrections on the electronic band structure within the GW approximation. We find that quasiparticle shifts widen the direct (indirect) band gap by 1.21 (1.44), 1.58 (1.55), and 1.67 (1.64) eV for the cubic, tetragonal, and orthorhombic phase, respectively. By solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation, we obtain the linear dielectric function with excitonic and local-field effects, which turn out to be essential for good agreement with experimental data. From our results, we extract an exciton binding energy of 0.6, 0.5, and 0.5 eV for the cubic, tetragonal, and orthorhombic phase, respectively. Furthermore, we investigate the nonlinear second-harmonic generation (SHG) both theoretically and experimentally. The frequency-dependent second-order polarization tensor of orthorhombic KNbO3 is measured for incoming photon energies between 1.2 and 1.6 eV. In addition, calculations within the independent-(quasi)particle approximation are performed for the tetragonal and orthorhombic phase. The novel experimental data are in excellent agreement with the quasiparticle calculations and resolve persistent discrepancies between earlier experimental measurements and ab initio results reported in the literature.","lang":"eng"}],"publication":"Physical Review Materials","issue":"5","doi":"10.1103/PhysRevMaterials.3.054401","article_number":"054401","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2023-04-20T14:20:33Z","article_type":"original","intvolume":"         3","title":"Quasiparticle and excitonic effects in the optical response of KNbO3","year":"2019","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2475-9953"]},"author":[{"id":"35251","full_name":"Schmidt, Falko","last_name":"Schmidt","first_name":"Falko","orcid":"0000-0002-5071-5528"},{"full_name":"Riefer, Arthur","first_name":"Arthur","last_name":"Riefer"},{"full_name":"Schmidt, Wolf Gero","first_name":"Wolf Gero","last_name":"Schmidt","orcid":"0000-0002-2717-5076","id":"468"},{"id":"458","full_name":"Schindlmayr, Arno","orcid":"0000-0002-4855-071X","last_name":"Schindlmayr","first_name":"Arno"},{"full_name":"Imlau, Mirco","last_name":"Imlau","first_name":"Mirco"},{"last_name":"Dobener","first_name":"Florian","full_name":"Dobener, Florian"},{"first_name":"Nils","last_name":"Mengel","full_name":"Mengel, Nils"},{"full_name":"Chatterjee, Sangam","first_name":"Sangam","last_name":"Chatterjee"},{"first_name":"Simone","last_name":"Sanna","full_name":"Sanna, Simone"}]},{"has_accepted_license":"1","status":"public","user_id":"171","ddc":["530"],"volume":2,"page":"045003","_id":"13365","publisher":"IOP Publishing","quality_controlled":"1","project":[{"_id":"52","name":"Computing Resources Provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing"},{"_id":"53","name":"TRR 142"},{"name":"TRR 142 - Project Area B","_id":"55"},{"name":"TRR 142 - Subproject B4","_id":"69"},{"name":"PC2: Computing Resources Provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing","_id":"52"}],"file_date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:29:27Z","citation":{"ama":"Neufeld S, Bocchini A, Gerstmann U, Schindlmayr A, Schmidt WG.

Calculations that include both quasiparticle and excitonic effects are in good agreement with the measured reflectivity."}],"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/","publication":"Journal of Physics: Materials","type":"journal_article","department":[{"_id":"296"},{"_id":"295"},{"_id":"230"},{"_id":"429"},{"_id":"170"},{"_id":"35"}],"file":[{"title":"Potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) quasiparticle energies and optical response","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"18535","date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:29:27Z","relation":"main_file","file_size":1481174,"access_level":"open_access","file_name":"Neufeld_2019_J._Phys._Mater._2_045003.pdf","description":"Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Public License (CC BY 3.0)","date_created":"2020-08-28T09:07:18Z","creator":"schindlm"}],"date_created":"2019-09-19T14:34:16Z"},{"oa":"1","external_id":{"isi":["000419778500006"]},"quality_controlled":"1","project":[{"name":"Computing Resources Provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing","_id":"52"},{"name":"TRR 142","_id":"53"},{"name":"TRR 142 - Project Area B","_id":"55"},{"_id":"68","name":"TRR 142 - Subproject B3"},{"_id":"69","name":"TRR 142 - Subproject B4"}],"file_date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:34:54Z","isi":"1","citation":{"chicago":"Friedrich, Michael, Wolf Gero Schmidt, Arno Schindlmayr, and Simone Sanna. “Erratum: Optical Properties of Titanium-Doped Lithium Niobate from Time-Dependent Density-Functional Theory [Phys.

In an ab initio context, it may be calculated within many-body perturbation theory or time-dependent density-functional theory, but the quantitative accuracy is currently limited by the available functionals for exchange and correlation in dynamically evolving systems. To circumvent this limitation, the spin susceptibility is here alternatively formulated as the solution of an initial-value problem. In this way, the challenge of accurately describing exchange and correlation in many-electron systems is shifted to the stationary initial state, which is much better understood. The proposed scheme further requires the choice of an auxiliary basis set, which determines the speed of convergence but always allows systematic convergence in practical implementations.","lang":"eng"}],"publication":"Advances in Mathematical Physics","department":[{"_id":"296"},{"_id":"35"},{"_id":"15"},{"_id":"170"},{"_id":"230"}],"type":"journal_article","date_created":"2020-08-27T19:18:34Z","file":[{"relation":"main_file","date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:31:38Z","file_size":294410,"title":"Exact formulation of the transverse dynamic spin susceptibility as an initial-value problem","file_id":"18537","content_type":"application/pdf","creator":"schindlm","description":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC BY 4.0)","file_name":"3732892.pdf","access_level":"open_access","date_created":"2020-08-28T09:18:25Z"}],"article_type":"original","intvolume":"      2018","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2025-12-16T08:04:17Z","author":[{"id":"458","first_name":"Arno","last_name":"Schindlmayr","orcid":"0000-0002-4855-071X","full_name":"Schindlmayr, Arno"}],"publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1687-9139"],"issn":["1687-9120"]},"year":"2018","title":"Exact formulation of the transverse dynamic spin susceptibility as an initial-value problem","doi":"10.1155/2018/3732892","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"3732892","quality_controlled":"1","citation":{"bibtex":"@article{Schindlmayr_2018, title={Exact formulation of the transverse dynamic spin susceptibility as an initial-value problem}, volume={2018}, DOI={<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1155/2018/3732892\">10.1155/2018/3732892</a>}, number={3732892}, journal={Advances in Mathematical Physics}, publisher={Hindawi}, author={Schindlmayr, Arno}, year={2018} }","ama":"Schindlmayr A.

The dielectric function of the material is calculated within time-dependent density-functional theory. The effects of isolated intrinsic defects and defect pairs, including the NbLi4+ antisite and the NbLi4+−NbNb4+ pair, commonly addressed as a bound polaron and bipolaron, respectively, are discussed in detail. In addition, we present further possible realizations of polaronic and bipolaronic systems. The absorption feature around 1.64 eV, ascribed to small bound polarons [O. F. Schirmer et al., J.

Self-energy calculations in the GW approximation show that the inclusion of self-consistency in the Green function G and the screened Coulomb potential W opens the band gap far stronger than found in previous G0W0 calculations but slightly overestimates its actual value due to the neglect of excitonic effects in W. A realistic frozen-lattice band gap of about 5.9 eV is obtained by combining hybrid density functional theory with the QSGW0 scheme. The renormalization of the band gap due to electron-phonon coupling, derived here using molecular dynamics as well as density functional perturbation theory, reduces this value by about 0.5 eV at room temperature. Spin-orbit coupling does not noticeably modify the fundamental gap but gives rise to a Rashba-like spin texture in the conduction band.","lang":"eng"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"075205","doi":"10.1103/PhysRevB.93.075205","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["2469-9969"],"issn":["2469-9950"]},"author":[{"full_name":"Riefer, Arthur","last_name":"Riefer","first_name":"Arthur"},{"first_name":"Michael","last_name":"Friedrich","full_name":"Friedrich, Michael"},{"first_name":"Simone","last_name":"Sanna","full_name":"Sanna, Simone"},{"full_name":"Gerstmann, Uwe","orcid":"0000-0002-4476-223X","last_name":"Gerstmann","first_name":"Uwe","id":"171"},{"id":"458","first_name":"Arno","orcid":"0000-0002-4855-071X","last_name":"Schindlmayr","full_name":"Schindlmayr, Arno"},{"id":"468","first_name":"Wolf Gero","orcid":"0000-0002-2717-5076","last_name":"Schmidt","full_name":"Schmidt, Wolf Gero"}],"title":"LiNbO3 electronic structure: Many-body interactions, spin-orbit coupling, and thermal effects","year":"2016","article_type":"original","intvolume":"        93","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2025-12-05T09:59:57Z","external_id":{"isi":["000370794800004"]},"oa":"1","isi":"1","citation":{"mla":"Riefer, Arthur, et al. “LiNbO3 Electronic Structure: Many-Body Interactions, Spin-Orbit Coupling, and Thermal Effects.” <i>Physical Review B</i>, vol. 93, no. 7, 075205, American Physical Society, 2016, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.93.075205\">10.1103/PhysRevB.93.075205</a>.","bibtex":"@article{Riefer_Friedrich_Sanna_Gerstmann_Schindlmayr_Schmidt_2016, title={LiNbO3 electronic structure: Many-body interactions, spin-orbit coupling, and thermal effects}, volume={93}, DOI={<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.93.075205\">10.1103/PhysRevB.93.075205</a>}, number={7075205}, journal={Physical Review B}, publisher={American Physical Society}, author={Riefer, Arthur and Friedrich, Michael and Sanna, Simone and Gerstmann, Uwe and Schindlmayr, Arno and Schmidt, Wolf Gero}, year={2016} }","ama":"Riefer A, Friedrich M, Sanna S, Gerstmann U, Schindlmayr A, Schmidt WG.

To assess the relative importance of these two factors, we combine density-functional theory in the local-density approximation with the GW approximation for the electronic self-energy and investigate the effect of uniaxial and biaxial strains along the [110] direction on the structural and electronic properties of Si. Longitudinal and transverse components of the electron effective mass as a function of the strain are derived from fits to the quasiparticle band structure and a diagonalization of the full effective-mass tensor. The changes in the effective masses and the energy splitting of the conduction-band valleys for uniaxial and biaxial strains as well as their impact on the electron mobility are analyzed. The self-energy corrections within GW lead to band gaps in excellent agreement with experimental measurements and slightly larger effective masses than in the local-density approximation.","lang":"eng"}],"article_number":"453125","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"doi":"10.1155/2015/453125","year":"2015","title":"Ab initio study of strain effects on the quasiparticle bands and effective masses in silicon","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1687-8124"],"issn":["1687-8108"]},"author":[{"first_name":"Mohammed","last_name":"Bouhassoune","full_name":"Bouhassoune, Mohammed"},{"id":"458","last_name":"Schindlmayr","first_name":"Arno","orcid":"0000-0002-4855-071X","full_name":"Schindlmayr, Arno"}],"date_updated":"2025-12-16T11:08:01Z","publication_status":"published","intvolume":"      2015","article_type":"original","external_id":{"isi":["000350656500001"]},"oa":"1","file_date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:45:29Z","citation":{"ama":"Bouhassoune M, Schindlmayr A.

As their energy reaches down to only a few meV, they are present at all temperatures and substantially influence the properties of magnetic systems. To study the spin excitations in solids from first principles, we have developed a computational scheme based on many-body perturbation theory within the full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave (FLAPW) method. The main quantity of interest is the dynamical transverse spin susceptibility or magnetic response function, from which magnetic excitations, including single-particle spin-flip Stoner excitations and collective spin-wave modes as well as their lifetimes, can be obtained. In order to describe spin waves we include appropriate vertex corrections in the form of a multiple-scattering T matrix, which describes the coupling of electrons and holes with different spins. The electron–hole interaction incorporates the screening of the many-body system within the random-phase approximation. To reduce the numerical cost in evaluating the four-point T matrix, we exploit a transformation to maximally localized Wannier functions that takes advantage of the short spatial range of electronic correlation in the partially filled d or f orbitals of magnetic materials. The theory and the implementation are discussed in detail. In particular, we show how the magnetic response function can be evaluated for arbitrary k points. This enables the calculation of smooth dispersion curves, allowing one to study fine details in the k dependence of the spin-wave spectra. We also demonstrate how spatial and time-reversal symmetry can be exploited to accelerate substantially the computation of the four-point quantities. As an illustration, we present spin-wave spectra and dispersions for the elementary ferromagnet bcc Fe, B2-type tetragonal FeCo, and CrO2 calculated with our scheme. The results are in good agreement with available experimental data."}],"date_created":"2020-08-27T21:00:45Z","file":[{"creator":"schindlm","date_created":"2020-08-28T15:19:57Z","description":"© 2014 Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Heidelberg","access_level":"closed","file_size":1061365,"file_name":"Friedrich2014_Chapter_SpinExcitationsInSolidsFromMan.pdf","date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:48:45Z","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"18584","title":"Spin excitations in solids from many-body perturbation theory"}],"department":[{"_id":"296"},{"_id":"35"},{"_id":"15"},{"_id":"230"}],"type":"book_chapter","author":[{"full_name":"Friedrich, Christoph","last_name":"Friedrich","first_name":"Christoph"},{"full_name":"Şaşıoğlu, Ersoy","first_name":"Ersoy","last_name":"Şaşıoğlu"},{"full_name":"Müller, Mathias","last_name":"Müller","first_name":"Mathias"},{"id":"458","full_name":"Schindlmayr, Arno","first_name":"Arno","orcid":"0000-0002-4855-071X","last_name":"Schindlmayr"},{"first_name":"Stefan","last_name":"Blügel","full_name":"Blügel, Stefan"}],"publication_identifier":{"eisbn":["978-3-642-55068-3"],"isbn":["978-3-642-55067-6"],"eissn":["1436-5049"],"issn":["0340-1022"]},"title":"Spin excitations in solids from many-body perturbation theory","year":"2014","intvolume":"       347","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2025-12-16T08:06:12Z","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"series_title":" Topics in Current Chemistry","doi":"10.1007/128_2013_518","pmid":"1","isi":"1","citation":{"ama":"Friedrich C, Şaşıoğlu E, Müller M, Schindlmayr A, Blügel S.

Although computationally more demanding than density functional theory, it has the distinct advantage that the exact expressions for all relevant observables, including the ground-state total energy, in terms of the Green function are known explicitly. The most important application, however, lies in the calculation of excited states, whose energies correspond directly to the poles of the Green function in the complex frequency plane. The accuracy of results obtained within this framework is only limited by the choice of the exchange-correlation self-energy, which must still be approximated in actual implementations. In this respect, the GW approximation has proved highly successful for systems governed by the Coulomb interaction.

As in our recent study of rubrene using the same methodology [S. Yanagisawa, Y. Morikawa, and A. Schindlmayr, Phys. Rev.

In contrast, the width of the lower HOMO (HOMOl) band along Γ–Y remains almost unchanged, consistent with the fact that the HOMOl(Γ) and HOMOl(Y) states exhibit the same degree of hybridization, so that the nodal structure of the wave functions and the matrix elements of the self-energy correction are very similar.","lang":"eng"}],"publication":"Japanese Journal of Applied Physics","issue":"5S1","department":[{"_id":"296"},{"_id":"35"},{"_id":"15"},{"_id":"170"},{"_id":"230"}],"type":"journal_article","date_created":"2020-08-27T21:21:24Z","file":[{"file_size":588607,"access_level":"closed","file_name":"Yanagisawa_2014_Jpn._J._Appl._Phys._53_05FY02.pdf","date_updated":"2020-08-30T14:52:27Z","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","file_id":"18579","title":"Theoretical investigation of the band structure of picene single crystals within the GW approximation","creator":"schindlm","date_created":"2020-08-28T14:28:20Z","description":"© 2014 The Japan Society of Applied Physics"}],"article_type":"original","intvolume":"        53","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2025-12-16T08:04:51Z","author":[{"last_name":"Yanagisawa","first_name":"Susumu","full_name":"Yanagisawa, Susumu"},{"first_name":"Yoshitada","last_name":"Morikawa","full_name":"Morikawa, Yoshitada"},{"id":"458","first_name":"Arno","orcid":"0000-0002-4855-071X","last_name":"Schindlmayr","full_name":"Schindlmayr, Arno"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0021-4922"],"eissn":["1347-4065"]},"title":"Theoretical investigation of the band structure of picene single crystals within the GW approximation","year":"2014","doi":"10.7567/jjap.53.05fy02","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_number":"05FY02","quality_controlled":"1","isi":"1","citation":{"short":"S.
