The anti-distortive polaron as an alternative mechanism for lattice-mediated charge trapping
Abstract Polarons can naturally form in materials from the interaction of extra charge carriers with the atomic lattice. Ubiquitous, they are central to various phenomena such as high-T c superconductivity, electrochromism, photovoltaics, photocatalysis or ion batteries. However, polaron formation r...
