Hi dear experts and users:
Currently i inspect the electron-plasmon in semi-conductors i have two questions:
1 how can i adjust the doping carrier concentration in intrinsic materials ?
2 What can i do with EPW code in the plasmon investigation ? can it calculate the loss function and the plasmon energy ?
Best regards
Hello,
No, EPW doesn’t calculate the loss function and plasmon energy; for those you should use e.g. Yambo.
EPW implements the approach of https://journals.aps.org/prb/abstract/1 … .94.115208 for calculating the el-plasmon self-energy in a degenerate semiconductor. The carrier concentration is given by ‘nel’ in the input.
Best wishes,
Carla
