Mass Enhancement

Helium-atom scattering (HAS) spectroscopy from conducting surfaces has been shown to provide direct information on the electron–phonon interaction, more specifically the mass-enhancement factor λ from the temperature dependence of the Debye–Waller exponent, and the mode-selected electron–phonon coupling constants λQν from the inelastic HAS intensities from individual surface phonons. The recent applications of the method to superconducting ultra-thin films, quasi-1D high-index surfaces, and layered transition-metal and topological pnictogen chalcogenides are briefly reviewed.

Mass Enhancement

The phonon dispersion curves of ultrathin films of Cs(110) on Pt(111) measured with inelastic helium atom scattering (HAS) are reported and compared with density-functional perturbation theory calculations. The mass-enhancement factor is derived from the temperature dependence of the HAS Debye–Waller exponent.

Electron Phonon Coupling

It is a fact that for ordinary metals, the electron–phonon interaction increases the quasi-particle mass, which is in contrast to the finding by Fulde et al. that, for some heavy Fermion (HF) systems, it decreases. Some experiments on HF systems suggest that there exists a strong coupling of the elastic degrees of freedom with these at the electronic and magnetic ones. To understand the effect of electron–phonon interaction on effective mass, the electron–phonon coupling mechanism in the framework of the periodic Anderson model is considered, and a simple expression is derived. This involves various model parameters namely, the position of the 4f level; the effective coupling strength, g, temperature, b; and the electron–phonon coupling strength, r. The influence of these parameters on the value of effective mass is studied, and interesting results were found. For simplicity, the numerical calculation is performed in the long wavelength limit.

Inelastic Tunneling

Tunneling through a system with two discrete electron levels coupled by electron–phonon interaction is considered. The interplay between elastic and inelastic tunneling channels is analyzed for a strong electron–phonon coupling in the resonant case. It is shown that the intensity and the width of peaks in tunneling conductivity are strongly influenced by nonequilibrium effects.

Vibrational Contribution

The thermal shifts of R1 and R2 lines in Cr3+-doped forsterite (Mg2SiO4) are studied by considering both the static contribution due to lattice thermal expansion and the vibrational contribution due to electron-phonon interaction. In the studies, the thermal expansion coefficient of the Cr3+ center is assumed reasonably as that of the corresponding cluster in the host crystal. The results suggest that for R1 and R2 lines the static contributions are opposite in sign and in magnitude about 37% and 45%, respectively, of the corresponding vibrational contributions. The true electron-phonon coupling coefficients α' (obtained by considering both contributions) increase by about 58% and 81%, respectively, for R1 and R2 lines in comparison with the corresponding parameters α obtained by considering only the vibrational contribution. It appears that for the reasonable explanation of thermal shift of spectral lines and the exact estimation of electron-phonon coupling coefficient, both the static and vibrational contributions should be taken into account

Pulse Echo

Ultrasonic longitudinal and shear velocity in superconducting ErBa 2( Cu 3-x Zn x) O 7-δ (x = 0, 0.01 and 0.05) have been measured using the pulse-echo-overlap method at frequency 5–10 MHz in the temperature range 80–300 K. Longitudinal velocity hysteresis and elastic anomaly were observed in the x = 0 sample. Similar hysteresis was not observed in the x = 0.01 and 0.05 samples. The characteristic Debye temperature and electron–phonon coupling constant were calculated. The absence of hysteresis for longitudinal velocity in the x = 0.01 and 0.05 samples may be due to the spin correlation at the CuO 2 planes which affects the electron–phonon interaction.

Electron Phonon Coupling

We calculate the conductance through strongly correlated T-shaped molecular or quantum dot systems under the influence of phonons. The system is modelled by the extended Anderson–Holstein Hamiltonian. The finite-U mean-field slave boson approach is used to study many-body effects. Phonons influence both interference and correlations. Depending on the dot unperturbed energy and the strength of electron–phonon interaction, the system is occupied by a different number of electrons that effectively interact with each other repulsively or attractively. This leads, together with the interference effects, to different spin or charge Fano–Kondo effects.
