Stacking dependence of carrier-interactions in multilayer graphene systems

Abstract

We identify qualitative trends in the stacking sequence dependence of carrier-carrier interaction phenomena in multilayer graphene. Our theory is based on a new approach which explicitly exhibits the important role in interaction phenomena of the momentum-direction dependent intersite phases determined by the stacking sequence. Using this method, we calculate and compare the self-energies, density--density response functions, collective modes, and ground-state energies of several different few layer graphene systems. The influence of electron--electron interactions on important electronic properties can be understood in terms of competition between intraband exchange, interband exchange and correlation contributions that vary systematically with stacking arrangement.
