--- _id: '23418' abstract: - lang: eng text: Density-functional theory within a Berry-phase formulation of the dynamical polarization is used to determine the second-order susceptibility χ(2) of lithium niobate (LiNbO3). 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.
