Unified description of exciton, phonon and plasmon dispersions in 2D materials from an optical conductivity approximation

Alberto Guandalini, Andrea Ferretti, Daniele Varsano +2

The modified Coulomb interaction in two-dimensional (2D) materials gives rise to unique, non-analytic low-momentum dispersions of excitons, phonons, and plasmons. Here, we describe…

The principle of detailed balance between electrons and phonons in presence of excitonic effects

Alberto Guandalini, Giovanni Caldarelli, Francesco Mauri +1

Based on a many-body formulation, we derive an electron-phonon coupling including excitonic effects that preserves thermodynamic detailed balance between electronic and phononic sc…

Electronic transport in BN-encasulated graphene limited by remote phonon scattering

Khalid Dinar, Francesco Macheda, Alberto Guandalini +6

We study the impact of BN's phonons on the electrical resistivity of hBN-encapsulated graphene. While encapsulation yields high-mobility devices, the surrounding BN itself introduc…

Ultraviolet optical conductivity, exciton fine-structure and dispersion of freestanding monolayer h-BN

Jinhua Hong, Alberto Guandalini, Weibin Wu +7

Excitons govern the light-matter interaction in 2D gapped materials with intrinsically large binding energies. In spite of plentiful optical measurements in the visible for semicon…

A viable and accurate route to GW simulations of metals and doped semiconductors

Giacomo Sesti, Alberto Guandalini, Andrea Ferretti +4

In this work we present an efficient and fully ab-initio approach for the calculation of the screened Coulomb potential, specifically designed for two dimensional (2D) and three di…

Excitonic effects in phonons: reshaping the graphene Kohn anomalies and lifetimes

Alberto Guandalini, Francesco Macheda, Giovanni Caldarelli +1

We develop an ab initio framework that captures the impact of electron-electron and electron-hole interactions on phonon properties. This enables the inclusion of excitonic effects…

Variational formulation of dynamical electronic response functions in presence of nonlocal exchange interactions

Giovanni Caldarelli, Alberto Guandalini, Francesco Macheda +1

We consider the dynamical electronic response function in theoretical frameworks that include nonlocal exchange interactions, such as the Bethe-Salpeter equation with the frequency…

High- and low-energy many-body effects of graphene in a unified approach

Alberto Guandalini, Giovanni Caldarelli, Francesco Macheda +1

We show that the many-body features of graphene band structure and electronic response can be accurately evaluated by applying many-body perturbation theory to a tight-binding (TB)…

Direct observation of the vanishing EELS cross section in graphene

Alberto Guandalini, Ryosuke Senga, Yung-Chang Lin +5

In transmission electron energy-loss spectroscopy, the cross section in 2D is quenched by kinematic effects once the momentum transfer becomes smaller than a critical value set by…

Efficient GW calculations via the interpolation of the screened interaction in momentum and frequency space: The case of graphene

Alberto Guandalini, Dario A. Leon, Pino D'Amico +4

The GW self-energy may become computationally challenging to evaluate because of frequency and momentum convolutions. These difficulties were recently addressed by the development…

Fundamental gaps of quantum dots on the cheap

Alberto Guandalini, Carlo Andrea Rozzi, Esa Räsänen +1

We show that the fundamental gaps of quantum dots can be accurately estimated at the computational effort of a standard ground-state calculation supplemented with a non self-consis…
