Using electrical transport experiments and shot noise thermometry, we investigate electron-phonon heat transfer rate in a suspended bilayer graphene. Contrary to monolayer graphene with heat flow via three-body supercollision scattering, we…
Density functional perturbation theory is used to analyze electron-phonon interaction in bilayer graphene. The results show that phonon scattering in bilayer graphene bears more resemblance with bulk graphite than monolayer graphene. In…
Inelastic scattering of electrons incident on a solid surface is determined by the two properties: (i) electronic response of the target system and (ii) the detailed quantum-mechanical motion of the projectile electron inside and in the…
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 report first-principles calculations of electron-phonon coupling in bilayer graphene and the corresponding contribution to carrier scattering. At the phonon $\Gamma$ point, electrons with energies less than 200 meV are scattered…
Electron-phonon coupling directly determines the stability of cooperative order in solids, including superconductivity, charge and spin density waves. Therefore, the ability to enhance or reduce electron-phonon coupling by optical driving…
Electron-electron interactions play a critical role in many condensed matter phenomena, and it is tempting to find a way to control them by changing the interactions' strength. One possible approach is to place a studied system in proximity…
We report on the temperature dependent electron transport in graphene at different carrier densities $n$. Employing an electrolytic gate, we demonstrate that $n$ can be adjusted up to 4$\times10^{14}$cm$^{-2}$ for both electrons and holes.…
A consistent theory of electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) includes two indispensable elements: (i) electronic response of the target system and (ii) quantum kinematics of probing electrons. While for the bulk materials and their…
Dominating electron-electron scattering enables viscous electron flow exhibiting hydrodynamic current density patterns such as Poiseuille profiles or vortices. The viscous regime has recently been observed in graphene by non-local transport…
This work demonstrates electron energy loss spectroscopy of 2D materials in a 1-30 keV electron microscope, observing 100-times stronger electron-matter coupling relative to 125 keV microscopes. We observe that the universal curve relating…
We investigate the scattering of an electron by phonons in a small structure between two one-dimensional tight-binding leads. This model mimics the quantum electron transport through atomic wires or molecular junctions coupled to metallic…
Electrons in condensed matter may transition into a variety of broken-symmetry phase states due to electron-electron interactions. Applying diverse mean-field approximations to the interaction term is arguably the simplest way to identify…
High-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy (HREELS) is one of the most powerful methods to detect the dispersion of plasmons. However, we find that in the HREELS measurement, the scattering geometric configuration will seriously…
The electron-phonon interaction in monolayer graphene is investigated by using density functional perturbation theory. The results indicate that the electron-phonon interaction strength is of comparable magnitude for all four in-plane…
Hydrodynamic electrons in high-mobility graphene devices have demonstrated great potential in establishing an electronic analogue of relativistic quantum fluid in solid-state systems. One of the key requirements for observing viscous…
A procedure is developed to rigorously decompose experimental loss spectra of medium-energy electrons reflected from solid surfaces into contributions due to surface and volume electronic excitations. This can be achieved by analysis of two…
Electron energy loss spectroscopy is consolidating as a powerful tool to explore electronic (as well as vibrational) excitations of matter, including molecules. Performed in a scanning transmission electron microscope, this technique is…
Electrical double layers play a key role in a variety of electrochemical systems. The mean free path of secondary electrons in aqueous solutions is on the order of a nanometer, making them suitable for probing of ultrathin electrical double…
We study electron scattering in graphene quantum dots (GQDs) under the combined influence of a magnetic field, an energy gap, and circularly polarized laser irradiation. Using the Floquet approach and the Dirac equation, we derive the…
