PLASMA SATELLITES

Plasma satellites arise due to collective excitation of electromagnetic waves which are coupled to the collective motion of charged particles of the plasma in the solid body. The frequencies of plasmons (collective electron oscillations) depend on electron concentration and the contributions from core polarization and inter-band transitions into the dielectric permeability of the substance. Distinguished are bulk and surface plasmons. Plasma satellites appear at an energy . The values of and are normally within the range of 5…30 eV [Ref 3].
