Collective behavior is one of the most intriguing aspects of the hydrodynamic approach to electronic transport. Here we provide a consistent, unified calculation of the dispersion relations of the hydrodynamic collective modes in graphene. Taking into account viscous effects, we show that the hydrodynamic sound mode in graphene becomes overdamped at sufficiently large momentum scales. Extending the linearized theory beyond the hydrodynamic regime, we connect the diffusive hydrodynamic charge density fluctuations with plasmons.

In nearly compensated graphene, disorder-assisted electron-phonon scattering or supercollisions are responsible for both quasiparticle recombination and energy relaxation. Within the hydrodynamic approach, these processes contribute weak decay terms
to the continuity equations at local equilibrium, i.e., at the level of ideal hydrodynamics. Here we report the derivation of the decay term due to weak violation of energy conservation. Such terms have to be considered on equal footing with the well-known recombination terms due to nonconservation of the number of particles in each band. At high enough temperatures in the hydrodynamic regime supercollisions dominate both types of the interaction). We also discuss the contribution of supercollisions to the heat transfer equation (generalizing the continuity equation for the energy density in viscous hydrodynamics).
The excitation spectrum and the collective modes of graphene antidot lattices (GALs) are studied in the context of a $pi$-band tight-binding model. The dynamical polarizability and dielectric function are calculated within the random phase approximat
ion. The effect of different kinds of disorder, such as geometric and chemical disorder, are included in our calculations. We highlight the main differences of GALs with respect to single-layer graphene (SLG). Our results show that, in addition to the well-understood bulk plasmon in doped samples, inter-band plasmons appear in GALs. We further show that the static screening properties of undoped and doped GALs are quantitatively different from SLG.
In condensed matter systems, higher temperatures typically disfavors ordered phases leading to an upper critical temperature for magnetism, superconductivity, and other phenomena. A notable exception is the Pomeranchuk effect in 3He, in which the liq
uid ground state freezes upon increasing the temperature due to the large entropy of the paramagnetic solid phase. Here we show that a similar mechanism describes the finite temperature dynamics of spin and valley-isospins in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene. Most strikingly a resistivity peak appears at high temperatures near superlattice filling factor nu = -1, despite no signs of a commensurate correlated phase appearing in the low-temperature limit. Tilted field magnetotransport and thermodynamic measurements of the inplane magnetic moment show that the resistivity peak is adiabatically connected to a finite-field magnetic phase transition at which the system develops finite isospin polarization. These data are suggestive of a Pomeranchuk-type mechanism, in which the entropy of disordered isospin moments in the ferromagnetic phase stabilizes it relative to an isospin unpolarized Fermi liquid phase at elevated temperatures. Measurements of the entropy, S/kB indeed find it to be of order unity per unit cell area, with a measurable fraction that is suppressed by an in-plane magnetic field consistent with a contribution from disordered physical spins. In contrast to 3He, however, no discontinuities are observed in the thermodynamic quantities across this transition. Our findings imply a small isospin stiffness, with implications for the nature of finite temperature transport as well as the mechanisms underlying isospin ordering and superconductivity in twisted bilayer graphene and related systems.
Emission spectra of quantum dot arrays in zero-dimensional microcavities are studied theoretically, and it is shown that they are determined by the competition between the formation of the collective superradiant mode and inhomogeneous broadening. Th
e random sources method for the calculation of photoluminescence spectra under a non-resonant pumping is developed, and a microscopic justification of the random sources method within a framework of the standard diagram technique is given. The emission spectra of a microcavity are analyzed with allowance for the spread of exciton states energies caused by an inhomogeneous distribution of quantum dots and a tunneling between them. It is demonstrated that in the case of a strong tunneling coupling the luminescence spectra are sensitive to the geometric positions of the dots, and the collective mode can, under certain conditions, be stabilized by the random tunnel junctions.
Electrons in two-dimensional hexagonal materials have valley degree of freedom, which can be used to encode and process quantum information. The valley-selective excitations, governed by the circularly polarised light resonant with the materials band
-gap, continues to be the foundation of valleytronics. It is often assumed that achieving valley selective excitation in pristine graphene with all-optical means is not possible due to the inversion symmetry of the system. Here we demonstrate that both valley-selective excitation and valley-selective high-harmonic generation can be achieved in pristine graphene by using the combination of two counter-rotating circularly polarized fields, the fundamental and its second harmonic. Controlling the relative phase between the two colours allows us to select the valleys where the electron-hole pairs and higher-order harmonics are generated. We also describe an all-optical method for measuring valley polarization in graphene with a weak probe pulse. This work offers a robust recipe to write and read valley-selective electron excitations in materials with zero bandgap and zero Berry curvature.
