Download or read book Strong Effects of Weak Electron-phonon Coupling written by Boris P. Antonyuk and published by Nova Biomedical Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conventional wisdom is that the self-trapping of a polaron takes place only at strong electron-phonon interactions, while weak interaction yields only minor changes of its property. To the contrary, says Antonyuk, who is not identified, self-trapping is possible at any interaction, including arbitrary weak, even in fully three-dimensional systems. He describes that phenomenon, then discusses nonlinear electron-phonon oscillations under resonance conditions, the impurity center under a strong laser field, and the strong influence of weak electron-phonon coupling in the vicinity of structure phase transitions. The English is stilted and often incomprehensible. The text is double spaced. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
