Time-dependent density-functional theory approach to nonlinear particle-solid interactions in comparison with scattering theory
V. U. Nazarov, J. M. Pitarke, C. S. Kim +1
An explicit expression for the quadratic density-response function of a many-electron system is obtained in the framework of the time-dependent density-functional theory, in terms…
Large crystal local-field effects in the dynamical structure factor of rutile TiO2
I. G. Gurtubay, Wei Ku, J. M. Pitarke +4
We present ab initio time-dependent-density-functional calculations and non-resonant inelastic x-ray scattering measurements of the dynamical structure factor of rutile TiO2. Our c…
Theory of acoustic surface plasmons
J. M. Pitarke, V. U. Nazarov, V. M. Silkin +3
Recently, a novel low-energy collective excitation has been predicted to exist at metal surfaces where a quasi two-dimensional (2D) surface-state band coexists with the underlying…
Surface plasmons in metallic structures
J. M. Pitarke, V. M. Silkin, E. V. Chulkov +1
Since the concept of a surface collective excitation was first introduced by Ritchie, surface plasmons have played a significant role in a variety of areas of fundamental and appli…
Plasmon bands in metallic nanostructures
J. E. Inglesfield, J. M. Pitarke, R. Kemp
The photonic band structure of a three-dimensional lattice of metal spheres is calculated using an embedding technique, in the frequency range of the Mie plasmons. For a small fill…
Exchange and correlation effects in the relaxation of hot electrons in noble metals
I. G. Gurtubay, J. M. Pitarke, P. M. Echenique
We report extensive first-principles calculations of the inelastic lifetime of low-energy electrons in the noble metals Cu, Ag, and Au. The quasiparticle self-energy is computed wi…
