Optical Phonon Branch

Using an all-coupling variational method and the random phase approximation, it is shown that a two-dimensional polaron gas exhibiting no localization-delocalization transition with a single optical phonon branch may undergo such a transition in the presence of an additional phonon branch. However, if the system already shows a transition, with a single phonon branch, then the effect of an additional branch is just to enhance the low-mobility self-trapped phase of the polaron.
