The effect of electron-phonon coupling on a two-dimensional donor in a magnetic field is studied variationally. It is observed that the influence of the magnetic field on the phonon-induced shift in the binding energy is more marked for stronger Coulomb potentials and larger phonon couplings. Even though the magnetic field enhances electron-phonon coupling in an absolute sense, for cyclotron frequencies larger than the LO phonon frequency the relative shift (with respect to the unperturbed binding energy) is seen to be considerably smaller than in the case with zero magnetic field.

CHAOTIC ELECTRON TRAJECTORIES IN ELECTROMAGNETIC WIGGLER FREE-ELECTRON LASER WITH A GUIDE MAGNETIC-FIELD BILIKMEN, S; OMAR, A (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1994-05-01) The Hamiltonian for an electron travelling through a large-amplitude backward electromagnetic wave, an axial guide magnetic field and radiation field is formulated. Poincare surface-of-section plots show that this Hamiltonian is non-integrable, and leads to chaotic trajectories. Equilibrium conditions are derived in the limit where the radiation field approaches zero. Compared to conventional FEL, the total energy of the system at pondermotive resonance E(c) is large, while the electron's critical energy...
THE TWO-DIMENSIONAL MAGNETO-POLARON IN THE STRONG-COUPLING REGIME Erçelebi, Ayşe Çiğdem (IOP Publishing, 1989-04-03) Within the framework of the strong-coupling polaron theory the problem of a two-dimensional electron coupled to LO phonons under an external magnetic field is studied. When a suitably modified coherent phonon state interrelating the magnetic field and the polaron counterparts of the problem is adopted, it is seen that the theory reproduces the desirable asymptotic limits attained by the perturbation or the usual adiabatic theories. Moreover, the theory indicates that an abrupt 'stripping transition' in the ...
Polaron effects on the binding energy of a hydrogenic impurity in a semiconductor quantum well Ercelebi, A; Sualp, G (IOP Publishing, 1987-11-30) The polaron effect on the ground-state level of a hydrogenic impurity in a semiconductor quantum well is calculated as a function of the well thickness. The formulation is based on an extension of the strong-coupling polaron theory and covers the overall range of the electron-phonon coupling strength. It is observed that in a GaAs-based quantum structure the phonon-induced shift in the binding energy is smaller than that in the bulk case except for too narrow well sizes.
A variational description of the free and localised states of the acoustic deformation potential polaron Erçelebi, Ayşe Çiğdem (IOP Publishing, 1988-3-30) The ground-state property of the acoustic deformation potential polaron is retrieved variationally in the overall range of the coupling constant. The calculation is based on an appropriate extension of the strong-coupling theory and yields a reasonable description of the free and self-localised states of the coupled electron-lattice system.
Defect-controlled transport properties of metallic atoms along carbon nanotube surfaces Barinov, Alexei; Toffoli, Hande; Fabris, Stefano; Gregoratti, Luca; Aballe, Lucia; Dudin, Pavel; Baroni, Stefano; Kiskinova, Maya (American Physical Society (APS), 2007-07-01) The diffusion mechanism of indium atoms along multiwalled carbon nanotubes is studied by means of photoemission spectromicroscopy and density functional theory calculations. The unusually high activation temperature for diffusion (approximate to 700 K), the complex C 1s and In 3d(5/2) spectra, and the calculated adsorption energies and diffusion barriers suggest that the indium transport is controlled by the concentration of defects in the C network and proceeds via hopping of indium adatoms between C vacan...
