Progress Report for Grant Number W911NF-09-1-0347 (University of Illinois - Urbana)

Abstract

The aim of this project is to explore the strongly correlated states, more specifically Bose-Einstein condensation of indirectly bound excitons, in bilayer graphene. During this final reporting period, we have continued our work on the extension of the many-body calculations to an atomistic model, examined the electron-phonon coupling, studied the possibility of finding the same type of condensation in a 3D topological insulator, and started our work on a time-dependent theory to understand the behavior of the time-dependent many-body systems. In this final progress report, we will outline our most important results and draw some final conclusions from our 3 year project.
