The One

The simplest possible structural transition that an electronic system can undergo is Wigner crystallization. The aim of this short review is to discuss the main aspects of three recent experimets on the one-dimensional Wigner molecule, starting from scratch. To achieve this task, the Luttinger liquid theory of weakly and strongly interacting fermions is briefly addressed, together with the basic properties of carbon nanotubes that are required. Then, the most relevant properties of Wigner molecules are addressed, and finally the experiments are described. The main physical points that are addressed are the suppression of the energy scales related to the spin and isospin sectors of the Hamiltonian, and the peculiar structure that the electron density acquires in the Wigner molecule regime.

Finite Size Corrections

We show that the one-dimensional (1D) electron systems can also be described by Landau's phenomenological Ferimi-liquid theory. Most of the known results derived from the Luttinger-liquid theory can be retrieved from the one-dimensional Fermi-liquid theory. Exact correspondence between the Landau parameters and Haldane parameters is established. The exponents of the dynamical correlation functions and the impurity problem are also discussed based on the finite size corrections of elementary excitations with the predictions of the conformal field theory, which provides a bridge between the one-dimensional Fermi-liquid and the Luttinger liquid.

Plasmon Dispersion

AbstractSurface plasmons, collective electromagnetic excitations coupled to conduction electron oscillations, enable the manipulation of light–matter interactions at the nanoscale. Plasmon dispersion of metallic structures depends sensitively on their dimensionality and has been intensively studied for fundamental physics as well as applied technologies. Here, we report possible evidence for gate-tunable hybrid plasmons from the dimensionally mixed coupling between one-dimensional (1D) carbon nanotubes and two-dimensional (2D) graphene. In contrast to the carrier density-independent 1D Luttinger liquid plasmons in bare metallic carbon nanotubes, plasmon wavelengths in the 1D-2D heterostructure are modulated by 75% via electrostatic gating while retaining the high figures of merit of 1D plasmons. We propose a theoretical model to describe the electromagnetic interaction between plasmons in nanotubes and graphene, suggesting plasmon hybridization as a possible origin for the observed large plasmon modulation. The mixed-dimensional plasmonic heterostructures may enable diverse designs of tunable plasmonic nanodevices.

The One

The Landau-Luttinger liquid formulation is used to investigate the physics of the one-dimensional Hubbard model in a magnetic field of arbitrary strength H. The low lying charge and spin excitations are studied. A novel branch of sound wave-like spin excitations arises for H>0. The low temperature thermodynamics is considered in some detail.

The nature of the electron density localization in two MoS2 nanoclusters containing eight rows of Mo atoms, one with 100% sulphur coverage at the Mo edges (n8_100S) and the other with 50% coverage (n8_50S) was studied using a localized-electron detector function defined in the local moment representation.
