Small polaron confinement revisited

TL;DR

This paper explores how small polarons can be confined into insulating structures at high temperatures, leading to significant electric and magnetic field effects through vibronic polarons and electrostatic confinement modes.

Contribution

It introduces new confinement modes based on Poisson-Boltzmann equations for small polarons, highlighting their potential for colossal field effects.

Findings

Confinement of small polarons into periodic structures occurs above certain temperatures.

Vibronic (Jahn-Teller) polarons exhibit strong electric and magnetic dipoles.

Electrostatic confinement modes are derived from Poisson-Boltzmann equations.

Abstract

Confinement processes arranging small polarons into insulating periodic structures above certain conversion tempereture are considered. Vibronic (Jahn-Teller) polarons associating inherent electric & magnetic dipoles coupled to external fields lead to colossal field effects. Confinement modes based on Poisson-Boltzmann equations of electrostatic strings and plates are deduced.
