Plasmons, collective excitations of electrons in solids, are associated with strongly confined electromagnetic fields, with wavelengths far below the wavelength of photons in free space. This strong confinement promises the realization of…

We use electronic structure calculations based upon density functional theory to search for ideal plasmonic materials among the alkali noble intermetallics. Importantly, we use density functional perturbation theory to calculate the…

Plasmons in low dimensional materials provide a powerful platform for nanoscale control of light matter interactions, yet strategies to tailor their coherence and dissipation remain limited. Here, we demonstrate that transition metal…

We propose a new current-driven mechanism for achieving significant plasmon dispersion nonreciprocity in systems with narrow, strongly hybridized electron bands. The magnitude of the effect is controlled by the strength of electron-electron…

Plasmon resonance in metals represents the collective oscillation of the free electron gas density and enables enhanced light-matter interactions in nanoscale dimensions. Traditionally, the classical Drude model describes the plasmonic…

The field of plasmonics seeks to find materials with an intensive plasmon (large plasmon pole weight) with low Landau, phonon and other losses (small decay width). In this paper we propose a new class of materials that show exceptionally…

Material losses in metals are a central bottleneck in plasmonics for many applications. Here we propose and theoretically demonstrate that metal losses can be successfully mitigated with dielectric particles on metallic films, giving rise…

Graphene sheets encapsulated between hexagonal Boron Nitride (hBN) slabs display superb electronic properties due to very limited scattering from extrinsic disorder sources such as Coulomb impurities and corrugations. Such samples are…

Plasmonic modes offer the potential to achieve PetaVolts per meter fields, that would transform the current paradigm in collider development in addition to non-collider searches in fundamental physics. PetaVolts per meter plasmonics relies…

The photonic band structure of a three-dimensional lattice of metal spheres is calculated using an embedding technique, in the frequency range of the Mie plasmons. For a small filling factor of the spheres, Maxwell-Garnett theory gives an…

Van der Waals heterostructures employing graphene and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) crystals have emerged as a promising platform for plasmonics thanks to the tunability of their collective modes with carrier density and record values for…

Using an analytically tractable kinetic model of a two dimensional Fermi liquid of electrons, we characterize the crossovers between zero sound, first sound and plasmons. For experimentally realized Fermi liquids in a hydrodynamic limit,…

We explore the potential of highly mismatched alloys (HMAs) for realizing lossless plasmonics. Systems with a plasmon frequency at which there are no interband or intraband processes possible are called lossless, as there is no 2-particle…

Electronic flat bands can lead to rich many-body quantum phases by quenching the electron's kinetic energy and enhancing many-body correlation. The reduced bandwidth can be realized by either destructive quantum interference in frustrated…

Using state-of-the-art many-body calculations based on the `GW plus cumulant' approach, we show that electron-plasmon interactions lead to the emergence of plasmonic polaron bands in the band structures of common semiconductors. Using…

Plasmons in low-dimensional systems respresent an important tool for coupling energy into nanostructures and the localization of energy on the scale of only a few nanometers. Contrary to ordinary surface plasmons of metallic bulk materials,…

Intercalation offers a promising way to alter the physical properties of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials. Here we investigate the electronic and vibrational properties of 2D layered MoSe$_2$ intercalated with atomic manganese at…

We reveal new aspects of the interaction between plasmons and phonons in 2D materials that go beyond a mere shift and increase in plasmon width due to coupling to either intrinsic vibrational modes of the material or phonons in a supporting…

Highly mismatched alloys (HMAs) have band structures strongly modified due to the introduction of the alloying element. We consider HMAs where the isolated state of the alloying element is near the host conduction band, which causes the…

Metallic systems exhibit plasmons as elementary charge excitations. This fundamental concept was reinforced also in high-temperature cuprate superconductors recently, although cuprates are not only layered systems but also strongly…
