Nonlinear screening of external charge by doped graphene
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We solve a nonlinear integral equation for the electrostatic potential in doped graphene due to an external charge, arising from a Thomas-Fermi (TF) model for screening by graphene's $\ensuremath{\pi}$ electron bands. In particular, we study the effects of a finite equilibrium charge-carrier density in graphene, nonzero temperature, nonzero gap between graphene and a dielectric substrate, as well as the nonlinearity in the band density of states. Effects of the exchange and correlation interactions are also briefly discussed for undoped graphene at zero temperature. Nonlinear results are compared with both the linearized TF model and the dielectric screening model within random-phase approximation (RPA). In addition, image potential of the external charge is evaluated from the solution of the nonlinear integral equation and compared to the results of linear models. We have found generally good agreement between the results of the nonlinear TF model and the RPA model in doped graphene, apart from Friedel oscillations in the latter model. However, relatively strong nonlinear effects are found in the TF model to persist even at high doping densities and large distances of the external charge.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
