Plasmon are collective oscillations of mobile electrons with dynamics controlled by their charge stiffness("Drude weight"). Using terahertz spacetime metrology, we probe Plasmon dynamics of mono- and bi-layer graphene. In both systems, the…

Among its many outstanding properties, graphene supports terahertz surface plasma waves -- sub-wavelength charge density oscillations connected with electromagnetic fields that are tightly localized near the surface[1,2]. When these waves…

Recent theory has demonstrated that the value of the electron-phonon coupling strength $\lambda$ can be extracted directly from the thermal attenuation (Debye-Waller factor) of Helium atom scattering reflectivity. This theory is here…

We predict the existence of transverse electric (TE) plasmons in bilayer graphene. We find that their plasmonic properties are much more pronounced in bilayer than in monolayer graphene, in a sense that they can get more localized at…
