Our preprint “Light-enhanced electron-phonon coupling from nonlinear electron-phonon coupling” is available on arXiv. In this work, it is shown how one can amplify electron-lattice coupling by using lasers that are tuned to a phonon, that is coupled quadratically to the electrons of the material. Such enhanced electron-lattice coupling can lead to the formation of polarons – electrons coupled to a “cloud” of lattice distortion – or even make the system superconducting. It has recently been debated how possible light-induced superconductivity in carbon football molecular crystal (“fullerenes”) may come about, and nonlinear electron-phonon coupling might play an important role. Similarly, more direct signatures of light-enhanced electron-lattice coupling have been observed in metallic bilayers of the carbon flatland material graphene. Now experiments have to be performed to check the hypothesis of our theory paper.
