Surface excitations in the random phase approximation
Keyword(s):
Density fluctuations in inhomogeneous systems are treated in the RPA using the Kadanoff–Baym Green's function method. In our analysis, the Wigner distribution function plays an important role. Well-known results for surface plasmons in one- and two-component plasmas are very easy to derive. A brief discussion is given of surface modes in systems for which the interaction is of short range.
