The optical response functions and band structures of LiCoO$_2$ are studied at different levels of approximation, from density functional theory (DFT) in the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) to quasiparticle self-consistent QS$GW$ (with $G$ for Greens function and $W$ for screened Coulomb interaction) without and with ladder diagrams (QS$Ghat W$) and the Bethe Salpeter Equation (BSE) approach. The QS$GW$ method is found to strongly overestimate the band gap and electron-hole or excitonic effects are found to be important. They lower the quasiparticle gap by only about 11~% but the lowest energy peaks in absorption are found to be excitonic in nature. The contributions from different band to band transitions and the relation of excitons to band-to-band transitions are analyzed. The excitons are found to be strongly localized. A comparison to experimental data is presented.

A survey is presented of various aspects of the interaction of charged particles with solids. In the framework of many-body perturbation theory, we study the nonlinear interaction of charged particles with a free gas of interacting electrons; in part
icular, nonlinear corrections to the stopping power are analyzed, and special emphasis is made on the separate contributions that are originated in the excitation of either electron-hole pairs, single plasmons, or double plasmons. Ab initio calculations of the electronic energy loss of ions moving in real solids are also presented, and the energy loss of charged particles interacting with simple metal surfaces is addressed.
We present an all-electron study of the dynamical density-response function of hexagonal close-packed transition metals Sc and Ti. We elucidate various aspects of the interplay between the crystal structure and the electron dynamics by investigating
the loss function, and the associated dielectric function, for wave-vector transfers perpendicular and parallel to the hexagonal plane. As expected, but contrary to recent work, we find that the free-electron-like aspects of the dynamical response are rather isotropic for small wave vectors. The crystal local-field effects are found to have an impact on the plasmon energy for small wave vectors, which gives rise to an interplay with the exchange-correlation effects built into the many-body kernel. The loss function lineshape shows a significant dependence on propagation direction; in particular, for propagation on the hexagonal plane the plasmon hybridizes substantially with fine structure due to d-electron transitions, and its dispersion curve becomes difficult to establish, beyond the small wave vector limit. The response is calculated in the framework of time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT), based on a full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave (LAPW) ground-state, in which the exchange-correlation effects are treated in the local-density approximation.
We use photoemission spectroscopy to study electronic structures of pristine and K-doped solid picene. The valence band spectrum of pristine picene consists of three main features with no state at the Fermi level (EF), while that of K-doped picene ha
s three structures similar to those of pristine picene with new states near EF, consistent with the semiconductor-metal transition. The K-induced change cannot be explained with a simple rigid-band model of pristine picene, but can be interpreted by molecular orbital calculations considering electron-intramolecular-vibration interaction. Excellent agreement of the K-doped spectrum with the calculations points to importance of electron-intramolecular-vibration interaction in K-doped picene.
The effect that dipole-dipole interactions have on the magneto-optical (MO) properties of magnetoplasmonic dimers is theoretically studied. The specific plasmonic versus magnetoplasmonic nature of the dimers metallic components and their specific loc
ation within the dimer plays a crucial role on the determination of these properties. We find that it is possible to generate an induced MO activity in a purely plasmonic component, even larger than that of the MO one, therefore dominating the overall MO spectral dependence of the system. Adequate stacking of these components may allow obtaining, for specific spectral regions, larger MO activities in systems with reduced amount of MO metal and therefore with lower optical losses. Theoretical results are contrasted and confirmed with experiments for selected structures.
The bulk photovoltaic effect (BPVE) has attracted an increasing interest due to its potential to overcome the efficiency limit of traditional photovoltaics, and much effort has been devoted to understanding its underlying physics. However, previous w
ork has shown that theoretical models of the shift current and the phonon-assisted ballistic current in real materials do not fully account for the experimental BPVE photocurrent, and so other mechanisms should be investigated in order to obtain a complete picture of BPVE. In this Letter, we demonstrate two approaches that enable the ab initio calculation of the ballistic current originating from the electron-hole interaction in semiconductors. Using BaTiO$_3$ and MoS$_2$ as two examples, we show clearly that for them the asymmetric scattering from electron-hole interaction is less appreciable than that from electron-phonon interaction, indicating more scattering processes need to be included to further improve the BPVE theory. Moreover, our approaches build up a venue for predicting and designing materials with larger ballistic current due to electron-hole interactions.
