Description:
Article Polarons are hybrid particles comprising a charged particle coupled to lattice vibrations. Here, the authors identify a hole-based polaron of intermediate coupling strength in zinc oxide using infrared reflection–absorption spectroscopy and first-principles-based electronic structure theory calculations.
