Atomic-Scale Engineering of Electron–Phonon Coupling Strength in Strontium Ruthenate

Electrons inside crystals interact closely with phonons, defined as the discrete unit of crystal vibrations. The electron–phonon coupling strength is an important fundamental physical quantity in solid state physics, determining electrodynamic behaviors and correlated functionalities of a material.
