We determine the lifetime of the surface plasmon in metallic nanoparticles under various
conditions, concentrating on the Landau damping, which is the dominant mechanism for …

Applications of the Time Dependent Density Functional Formalism to calculate the response
of metallic and semiconducting nanostructures to static and time-dependent electric fields in …

The optical spectrum of Ag 8 in a helium droplet, first measured by Federmann et al.[Eur.
Phys. J. D 9, 11 (1999)], is studied over a broad wavelength range (237–450 nm) by …

The surface plasmon resonance of alkali-metal (potassium) and noble-metal (silver) clusters
embedded in different dielectric matrices is studied within the time-dependent density …

Abstract The Inelastic Scattering Cross-Section. There is a clear distinction between energy
loss to inner-shell electrons and to valence or conduction electrons. The reason for the …

The treatment of the surface plasmon as a quantum particle provides a model system for the
study of decoherence and quantum dissipation in confined nanoscopic systems, where the …

A joint theoretical and experimental study of plasmon excitations for Al overlayers on Si
(111) has been carried out. The presence of the substrate is found to drastically modify the …

Интенсивное развитие нанотехнологий в течение последних десятилетий требует
создания новых материалов, физические и химические свойства которых отличаются …

We analyze a new type of the plasmon mode in nanosize semiconductor crystals. Rotational
dipole plasmon resonance, in which only angular degrees of freedom are excited, prevails …

Excited states of nanosize two-component semiconductor core–shell crystals with a type II
heterojunction are analyzed. It is demonstrated that the dipole plasmon resonance …
