Calculating excitons, plasmons, and quasiparticles in 2D materials and van der Waals heterostructures
Open accessAbstract
Atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) materials host a rich set of electronic states that differ substantially from those of their bulk counterparts due to quantum confinement and enhanced many-body effects. This Topical Review focuses on the theory and computation of excitons, plasmons and quasiparticle band structures in 2D materials and their heterostructures. The general theory is illustrated by applications to various types of 2D materials including transition metal dichalcogenides, graphene, phosphorene, and hexagonal boron nitride. The weak and highly non-local dielectric function of atomically thin crystals is shown to be responsible for many of the unique properties exhibited by the 2D materials such as the formation of strongly bound, non-Hydrogenic excitons, large band gap renormalization effects, and the different signatures of excitons and plasmons in electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). Among other topics covered are spin–orbit coupling, trions, interlayer excitons, exciton dissociation, and environmental screening. Technical issues associated with the application of the many-body GW method and the Bethe–Salpeter equation (BSE) to 2D materials are also discussed. A combined quantum/classical method is introduced and used throughout to account for dielectric screening and self-energy effects from substrates and van der Waals heterostructures including the difficult case of non-matching lattices.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
