▎ 摘  要

The combined effect due to mechanical strain, coupling to the plasmons in a doped conducting substrate, and the plasmon-phonon coupling in conjunction with the role played by encapsulation of a secondary two-dimensional layer is investigated both theoretically and numerically. The calculations are based on the random-phase approximation for the surface response function which yields the plasmon dispersion equation that is applicable in the presence or absence of an applied uniaxial strain. We present results showing the dependence of the frequency of the charge density oscillations on the strain modulus and direction of the wave vector in the Brillouin zone. The shielding of a dilute distribution of charges as well as the rate of loss of energy for impinging charges is investigated for this hybrid layered structure.
