Ab initio evidence for nonthermal characteristics in ultrafast laser melting

Journal Article Lian, Chao ; Zhang, S. B. ; Meng, Sheng - Physical Review B

Laser melting of semiconductors has been observed for almost 40 years; surprisingly, it is not well understood where most theoretical simulations show a laser-induced thermal process. Ab initio nonadiabatic simulations based on real-time time-dependent density functional theory reveal intrinsic nonthermal melting of silicon, at a temperature far below the thermal melting temperature of 1680 K. Both excitation threshold and time evolution of diffraction intensity agree well with experiment. Nonthermal melting is attributed to excitation-induced drastic changes in bonding electron density, and the subsequent decrease in the melting barrier, rather than lattice heating as previously assumed in the two-temperature models.

Journal Article Redondo, A - Physical Review (Section) A: General Physics; (USA)

A missing paragraph from the original work (A. Redondo, Phys. Rev. A 39, 4366 (1989)) that is being commented upon (preceding paper, Cioslowski and Levy, Phys. Rev. A 40, 6727 (1989)) is included. The relationship between this work and a theorem by Lieb (E. Lieb, Phys. Rev. Lett. 46, 457 (1981); 47, 69 (1981)) is also noted.

Reply to Comment on "Ab Initio Study of 40Ca with an Importance Truncated No-Core Shell Model"

Journal Article Roth, R ; Navratil, P - Physical Review Letters

In their comment on our recent Letter [1] Dean et al. [2] criticize the calculations for the ground-state energy of {sup 40}Ca within the importance truncated no-core shell model (NCSM). In particular they address the role of configurations beyond the 3p3h level, which have not been included in the {sup 40}Ca calculations for large N{sub max} {h_bar}{Omega} model spaces. Before responding to this point, the following general statements are in order. For the atomic nucleus as a self-bound system, translational invariance is an important symmetry. The only possibility to preserve translational invariance when working with a Slater determinant basis ismore »« less

Reply to “Comment on ‘Comparative study of ab initio nonradiative recombination rate calculations under different formalisms’ ”

Journal Article Shi, Lin ; Xu, Ke ; Wang, Lin-Wang - Physical Review B

As pointed out by the comments of Wickramaratne et al., there was indeed an algebra error in our original publication [Phys. Rev. B 91, 205315 (2015)] in calculating the 1D model. We have corrected this error, and did a renewed calculation and comparison of the 1D model and other approximated models. The revised comparison provides some insights for the origin of the difference between the full phonon spectrum electron-phonon coupling static formula results and other approximated results, especially for how to evaluate the amplitude of electron-phonon coupling.
