Weyl semimetals are one kind of three-dimensional gapless semimetal with nontrivial topology in the momentum space. The chiral anomaly in Weyl semimetals manifests as a charge imbalance between the Weyl nodes of opposite chiralities induced…

Near-gate plasmons are a new type of plasma oscillations emerging in homogeneous two-dimensional electron systems where a gate provides partial screening of electron-electron interaction. Here we develop a theory of the near-gate plasmons…

Localized surface plasmons are confined collective oscillations of electrons in metallic nanoparticles. When driven by light, the optical response is dictated by geometrical parameters and the dielectric environment and plasmons are…

The phase picked up by a graphene plasmon upon scattering by an abrupt edge is commonly assumed to be $-\pi$. Here, it is demonstrated that for high plasmon momenta this reflection phase is $\approx -3\pi/4$, virtually independent on either…

The plasmon is a well established collective excitation of metals in the visible and near UV but at much lower frequencies dissipation destroys all trace of the plasmon and typical Drude behaviour sets in. We propose a mechanism for…
