A NUMERICAL RENORMALIZATION GROUP APPROACH FOR AN ELECTRON-PHONON INTERACTION
A finite chain calculation in terms of Hubbard X-operators is explored by setting up a vibronic Harniltonian. The model conveniently transformed into a form so that in the case of strong coupling a numerical renormalization group approach is applicable. To test the technique, a one particle Green function is calculated for the model Harniltonian
متن کاملHeat conduction in molecular transport junctions
Heating and heat conduction in molecular junctions are considered within a general nonequilibrium Green’s function formalism. We obtain a unified description of heating in current-carrying molecular junctions as well as the electron and phonon contributions to the thermal flux, including their mutual influence. Ways to calculate these contributions, their relative importance, and ambiguities in...
متن کاملBias-Induced Optical Absorption of Current Carrying Two-Orbital Quantum Dot with Strong Electron-Phonon Interaction (Polaron Regime)
The one photon absorption (OPA) cross section of a current carrying two-orbital quantum dot (QD) with strong electron-phonon interaction (polaron regime) is considered. Using the self-consistent non-equilibrium Hartree-Fock (HF) approximation, we determine the dependence of OPA cross section on the applied bias voltage, the strength of effective electron-electron interaction, and level spacing ...

متن کاملPhonon-induced many-body renormalization of the electronic properties of graphene.
We develop a theory for the electron-phonon interaction effects on the electronic properties of graphene. We analytically calculate the electron self-energy, spectral function, and the band velocity renormalization due to phonon-mediated electron-electron interaction, finding that phonon-mediated electron-electron coupling has a large effect on the graphene band structure renormalization. Our a...
