First-principles calculations of the conventional and acoustic surface plasmons (CSPs and ASPs) on the (111) surfaces of Cu, Ag, and Au are presented. The effect of $s-d$ interband transitions on both types of plasmons is investigated by…
A novel collective excitation is predicted to exist at metal surfaces where a two-dimensional surface-state band coexists with the underlying three-dimensional continuum. This is a low-energy acoustic plasmon with linear dispersion at small…
Recently, a novel low-energy collective excitation has been predicted to exist at metal surfaces where a quasi two-dimensional (2D) surface-state band coexists with the underlying three-dimensional (3D) continuum. Here we present a model in…
We report first-principles calculations of acoustic surface plasmons on the (0001) surface of Be, as obtained in the random-phase approximation of many-body theory. The energy dispersion of these collective excitations has been obtained…
We use momentum-dependent electron energy-loss spectroscopy in transmission to study collective charge excitations in the layer metal Sr$_2$RuO$_4$. This metal has a transition from a perfect Fermi liquid below $T\approx30\,$K into a…
We investigate the dispersion properties of the acoustic surface waves on surface of elastic metamaterials. With an analytical approach, we show that unconventional acoustic surface waves, with dispersion behaviors very similar to the…
The delicate interplay between plasmonic excitations and interband transitions in noble metals is described by means of {\it ab initio} calculations and a simple model in which the conduction electron plasmon is coupled to the continuum of…
Origin of shifts in the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) frequency for noble metal (Au, Ag) nanoclusters are discussed in this book chapter. Spill out of electron from the Fermi surface is considered as the origin of red shift. On the other…
The role of metallic nanostructures in nanophotonics is expected to expand if ways to electrically manipulate their optical resonances at high speed can be identified. Here, we capitalize on electrically-driven surface acoustic waves and…
An acoustic plasmon is predicted to occur, in addition to the conventional two-dimensional (2D) plasmon, as the collective motion of a system of two types of electronic carriers coexisting in the very same 2D band of extrinsic (doped or…
Metallic surface states on semiconducting substrates provide an opportunity to study low-dimensional electrons decoupled from the bulk. Angle resolved photoemission is used to determine the Fermi surface, group velocity, and effective mass…
Surface optical plasmons on metal-dielectric boundaries of various shapes are studied. The study features by the exploration of plasmons of the frequency that is larger than $\omega_{pl}/\sqrt{2}$ and approximately equal to $\omega _{pl}$.…
Collective electronic excitations at metal surfaces are well known to play a key role in a wide spectrum of science, ranging from physics and materials science to biology. Here we focus on a theoretical description of the many-body…
The surface plasmon oscillations spectra in noble metal nanoparticles - rods and spheroids embedded in a host matrix is analyzed theoretically. The important role of - electrons in formation of surface plasmon resonances is shown. A simple…
The interest to foster plasmonic applications at energies in the ultra-violet, has escalated research initiatives in clusters of unconventional plasmonic materials like aluminum and indium,for which the surface-plasmon resonance appears…
Dispersion of acoustic plasmons and isotropic Landau parameters are calculated in three- and two-dimensional two-component electron-electron and electron-hole liquids at various concentration and mass ratios using Landau-Silin kinetic…
We present first principles calculations of the exchange interactions between magnetic impurities deposited on (001), (110) and (111) surfaces of Cu and Au and analyze them, in particular, in the asymptotic regime. For the (110) and the…
Self-assembled Au atomic wires on stepped Si surfaces are metallic, as evidenced by a one-dimensionally dispersing plasmonic excitation. Here we investigate the effects of oxidization on metallicity along such Au atomic wires on a regularly…
Recent theoretical considerations have demonstrated that freestanding graphene doped with alkali metals (AC x ) supports strong Dirac and weak acoustic plasmons. Here we show that when AC x is deposited on a metallic surface, the intense…
We observe using ab initio methods that localized surface plasmon resonances in icosahedral silver nanoparticles enter the asymptotic region already between diameters of 1 and 2 nm, converging close to the classical quasistatic limit around…
