    Dynamic correlations in double-layer electron systems
    (The American Physical Society, 2001) Tanatar, Bilal; Davoudi, B.
    We study the effects of dynamic correlations on the ground-state properties of a double-layer two-dimensional electron gas within the quantum Singwi-Tosi-Land-Sjölander theory (STLS). The intralayer and interlayer static structure factors, the pair-correlation functions, and the wave vector and frequency-dependent local-field factors have been calculated for a range of electron densities and layer separations. We find that the local-field factors have an oscillatory frequency dependence and the magnitude of interlayer local-field factors is about an order of magnitude smaller than that of the intralayer. Our results are compared with the random-phase approximation and the static STLS approximation to assess the importance of dynamical correlations. We also calculate the dispersion relations for the optical and acoustic plasmons and the damping of these modes to compare them with other mean-field theories, and we comment on the relevance of our results to the recent experiments.

    Ladder approximation in coupled quantum-well systems
    (American Physical Society, 2001) Yurtsever, A.; Tanatar, Bilal
    We study the contact values of the interlayer pair-correlation function in electron-electron and electron-hole double-layer systems. For this purpose the ladder approximation as generalized to multicomponent systems is used. The ladder approximation yields positive values for the interlayer gee(0) and geh(0) for all values of the density parameter rs and layer spacing d. This allows us to infer possible instabilities in the system more reliably compared to other approaches. We also investigate the effects of quantum-well width and screening on the interlayer pair-correlation functions.

    Spin magnetization of a strongly correlated electron gas confined in a two-dimensional finite lattice
    (American Physical Society, 2004) Niţǎ, M.; Dinu, V.; Aldea, A.; Tanatar, Bilal
    The influence of disorder and interaction effects on the ground state polarization of the two-dimensional correlated electron gas is studied by numerical investigations of the unrestricted Hartree-Fock approach. With the model of Anderson disorder a continuous increase of the spin magnetization until the fully polarized regime is obtained. The ferromagnetic ground state is found to be favorable when the electron number is lowered and the interaction and disorder parameters are suitably chosen.
