Excitonic effects on the silicon plasmon resonance

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The electron energy loss spectra (EELS) of silicon including local-field effects, GW corrections, and excitonic effects, were calculated. The inclusion of excitonic effects improved the results with respect to both the RPA, and more drastically, with respect to the GW calculations.
