Light Scattering by a Dielectric Sphere: Perspectives on the Mie Resonances (2018, background): “This collective effect involves both the electric and kinetic energy of the free electrons, hence is of primarily electric character and can be observed even for deeply subwavelength structures [52].”
Nonradiative Plasmon Decay and Hot Carrier Dynamics: Effects of Phonons, Surfaces, and Geometry. (2016, methodology): “4 shows the initial carrier distributions generated via direct and phonon-assisted transitions, which we calculate by histogramming the integrands in (2) and (3) by the initial (hole) and final (electron) state energies.”
Polaritons in layered two-dimensional materials. (2016, background): “from the problem of absorption losses[45], which traditionally has limited the range of possible materials to metals like silver and gold, and constrains the operating frequencies to the near-infrared, visible and ultraviolet.”
