A universal set of third--nearest neighbour tight--binding (TB) parameters is presented for calculation of the quasiparticle (QP) dispersion of $N$ stacked $sp^2$ graphene layers ($N=1... infty$) with $AB$ stacking sequence. The QP bands are strongly renormalized by electron--electron interactions which results in a 20% increase of the nearest neighbour in--plane and out--of--plane TB parameters when compared to band structure from density functional theory. With the new set of TB parameters we determine the Fermi surface and evaluate exciton energies, charge carrier plasmon frequencies and the conductivities which are relevant for recent angle--resolved photoemission, optical, electron energy loss and transport measurements. A comparision of these quantitities to experiments yields an excellent agreement. Furthermore we discuss the transition from few layer graphene to graphite and a semimetal to metal transition in a TB framework.

We computed the inter-layer bonding properties of graphite using an ab-initio many body theory. We carried out variational and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo calculations and found an equilibrium inter-layer binding energy in good agreement with most
recent experiments. We also analyzed the behavior of the total energy as a function of interlayer separation at large distances comparing the results with the predictions of the random phase approximation.
We present a tight-binding based GW approach for the calculation of quasiparticle energy levels in confined systems such as molecules. Key quantities in the GW formalism like the microscopic dielectric function or the screened Coulomb interaction are
expressed in a minimal basis of spherically averaged atomic orbitals. All necessary integrals are either precalculated or approximated without resorting to empirical data. The method is validated against first principles results for benzene and anthracene, where good agreement is found for levels close to the frontier orbitals. Further, the size dependence of the quasiparticle gap is studied for conformers of the polyacenes ($C_{4n+2}H_{2n+4}$) up to n = 30.
The inter-Landau level transitions observed in far-infrared transmission experiments on few-layer graphene samples show a behaviour characteristic of the linear dispersion expected in graphene. This behaviour persists in relatively thick samples, and
is qualitatively different from that of thin samples of bulk graphite.
We employ a tight-binding parametrization based on the Slater Koster model in order to fit the band structures of single-layer, bilayer and bulk black phosphorus obtained from first-principles calculations. We find that our model, which includes 9 or
17 parameters depending on whether overlap is included or not, reproduces quite well the ab-initio band structures over a wide energy range, especially the occupied bands. We also find that the inclusion of overlap parameters improves the quality of the fit for the conduction bands. On the other hand, hopping and on-site energies are consistent throughout the different systems, which is an indication that our model is suitable for calculations on multilayer black phosphorus and more complex situations in which first-principles calculations become prohibitive, such as disordered systems and heterostructures with a large lattice mismatch. We also discuss the limitations of the model and how the fit procedure can be improved for a more accurate description of bands in the vicinity of the Fermi energy.
The results of micro-Raman scattering measurements performed on three different ``graphitic materials: micro-structured disks of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite, graphene multi-layers thermally decomposed from carbon terminated surface of 4H-SiC a
nd an exfoliated graphene monolayer are presented. Despite its multi-layer character, most parts of the surface of the graphitized SiC substrates shows a single-component, Lorentzian shape, double resonance Raman feature in striking similarity to the case of a single graphene monolayer. Our observation suggests a very weak electronic coupling between graphitic layers on the SiC surface, which therefore can be considered to be graphene multi-layers with a simple (Dirac-like) band structure.
