Using vibrational electron energy loss spectroscopy (vib-EELS) combined with numerical modeling, we investigate the physical mechanisms governing the phonon coupling between a spherical particle sustaining multipolar surface phonon modes…

Two dimensional materials are important for electronics applications. A natural way for electronic structure engineering on two dimensional systems is on-plane chemical functionalization. Based on density functional theory, we study the…

A thorough understanding of the electronic structure is a necessary first step for the design of nanoelectronics, chemical/bio-sensors, electrocatalysts, and nanoplasmonics using graphene. As such, theoretical spectroscopic techniques to…

We consider electron-phonon (\textit{e-ph}) energy loss rate in 3D and 2D multi-component electron systems in semiconductors. We allow general asymmetry in the \textit{e-ph} coupling constants (matrix elements), i.e., we allow that the…

We model Raman processes in silicene and germanene involving scattering of quasiparticles by, either, two phonons, or, one phonon and one point defect. We compute the resonance Raman intensities and lifetimes for laser excitations between 1…

We develop a theory of momentum-resolved electron energy-loss spectra in the scanning transmission microscope (STEM-EELS) that captures the effects of coupled phonon and magnon excitations within a unified formalism, and apply it to…

Considering the interband correlation, we present a generalized multiple-scattering approach of Green's function to investigate the effects of electron-impurity scattering on the density of states in silicene. The reduction of energy gaps…

This review discusses how low-energy, valence excitations created by swift electrons can render information on the optical response of structured materials with unmatched spatial resolution. Electron microscopes are capable of focusing…

Relativistic electrons in a structured medium generate radiative losses such as Cherenkov and transition radiation that act as a virtual light source, coupling to the photonic densities of states. The effect is most pronounced when the…

We investigate the effects of crystal lattice vibrations on the dispersion of plasmons. The loss function of the homogeneous electron gas (HEG) in two and three dimensions is evaluated numerically in presence of electronic coupling to an…

An exact expression is derived for the time-averaged electromagnetic energy within a magneto-dielectric coated sphere, which is irradiated by a plane and time-harmonic electromagnetic wave. Both the spherical shell and core are considered…

A local model of the dielectric response of a metal predicts that singular surfaces, such as sharp-edged structures, have a continuous absorption spectrum and extreme concentration of energy at the singularity. Here we show that nonlocality…

Optical dielectric resonances have the ability to modulate optical energy, and by coupling multiple resonators into photonic molecules, new opportunities emerge in spectral engineering. Using electron-beam spectroscopy, in a 300-keV…
