Acoustic plasmons and "soundarons" in graphene on a metal gate
arXiv:1104.2707 · doi:10.1016/j.ssc.2011.07.015
Abstract
We demonstrate that single-layer graphene in the presence of a metal gate displays a gapless collective (plasmon) mode that has a linear dispersion at long wavelengths. We calculate exactly the acoustic-plasmon group velocity at the level of the random phase approximation and carry out microscopic calculations of the one-body spectral function of such system. Despite screening exerted by the metal, we find that graphene's quasiparticle spectrum displays a very rich structure characterized by composite hole-acoustic plasmon satellite bands (that we term for brevity "soundarons"), which can be observed by e.g. angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy.
