Integrated Plasmonics: Broadband Dirac Plasmons in Borophene
arXiv:1803.01604 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.125.116802
Abstract
The past decade has witnessed numerous discoveries of two-dimensional (2D) semimetals and insulators, whereas 2D metals are rarely identified. Borophene, a monolayer boron sheet, has recently emerged as a perfect 2D metal with unique structure and electronic properties. Here we study collective excitations in borophene, which exhibit two major plasmon modes with low damping rates extending from infrared to ultraviolet regime. The anisotropic 1D plasmon originates from electronic excitations of tilted Dirac cones in borophene, analogous to that in heavily doped Dirac semimetals. These features make borophene promising to realize directional polariton transportation and broadband optical communications for next-generation optoelectronic devices.
