Magnetoplasmons in Graphene Structures
The dispersion relation for magnetoplasmon excitations in a single layer and a pair of parallel layers of graphene is calculated in the random-phase approximation. Our formalism is valid for integer filling factor. The graphene layers are embedded in a dielectric medium and a strong perpendicular quantizing ambient magnetic foeld is applied. We present numerical results for the for magnetplasmon excitation energies as a function of the in-plane wave vector. Our numerical calculations show that for a graphene layer, there is a collective mode which is not Landau damped by the particle-hole excitations. This magnetoplasmon has a negative as well as a positive group velocity for different ranges of wave vector at fixed magnetic field. For bilayer graphene, the magnetoplasmon mode is split by the inter-layer Coulomb interaction into a symmetric (in-phase) and antisymmetric (out-of-phase) oscillatory mode. A discussion of the plasmon instabilities associated with these layered structures is presented.
