Recently, it was demonstrated that ions impacting a correlated finite graphene‐type honeycomb cluster can excite strong nonequilibrium states. In particular, this can lead to an enhanced population of bound pairs of electrons with opposite spin—doublons—where the doublon number can be increased further via multiple ion impacts. These predictions were made based on nonequilibrium Green functions (NEGF) simulations allowing for a time‐dependent non‐perturbative study of the energy loss of charged particles penetrating a strongly correlated system. Herein, these simulations are extended to larger clusters and longer simulation times, utilizing the recently developed G1–G2 scheme, which allows for a dramatic speedup of NEGF simulations. Furthermore, the dependence of the energy and doublon number on the time interval between ion impacts and on the impact point is investigated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
