摘要: We present an ab initio calculation of the electron energy loss spectrum silicon including local-field, self-energy, and excitonic effects. When self-energy corrections are added to standard random phase approximation (RPA) line shape plasmon resonance worsens. The electron-hole interaction cancels this correction improves result both compared RPA one, yielding very good agreement between theory experiment provided that mixing interband transitions positive negative frequencies is included.
