Abstract

The spectrum of electron-phonon complexes in monolayer graphene is investigated in the presence of a perpendicular quantizing magnetic field. Despite the small electron-phonon coupling, usual perturbation theory is inapplicable for the calculation of the scattering amplitude near the threshold of optical phonon emission. Our findings, beyond perturbation theory, show that the true spectrum near the phonon-emission threshold is completely governed by new branches, corresponding to bound states of an electron and an optical phonon with a binding energy of the order of αω(0), where α is the electron-phonon coupling and ω(0) the phonon energy.

Main findings

In monolayer graphene under a perpendicular quantizing magnetic field, the spectrum near the optical-phonon emission threshold is reported to be governed by new branches corresponding to bound states of an electron and an optical phonon. The binding energy is described as being of order αω(0), where α is the electron-phonon coupling and ω(0) is the phonon energy.
