Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic screening of ions in solids

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the dynamic screening charge and potential induced by a charged particle moving through or nearby condensed matter, and showed that the asymmetry of the induced charge leads to a retarding force acting on the particle, i.e., stopping power.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inelastic mean free path of low‐energy electrons in condensed media: beyond the standard models

TL;DR: In this paper, an approach to include exchange and correlation (XC) effects in IMFP calculations, thus going beyond the RPA and Born approximation, was presented, where XC effects among the screening electrons were included using a time-dependent local-density approximation for the LFC.

Image potential in scanning transmission electron microscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of the image potential in electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) of fast electrons commonly used in scanning transmission electron microscopy travelling near a surface is studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Wavenumber dependence of the energy loss function of graphite and aluminium

TL;DR: In this article, the experimental energy loss function of a material is modeled as a sum of Mermin type functions in the optical limit (i.e., at zero momentum transfer), and its dependence on the momentum transfer is calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of the description of the target energy‐loss function on the energy loss of swift projectiles

TL;DR: In this article, the Spanish Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia and Generalitat Valenciana (GVC) provided support under the Ramon y Cajal Program.
