Abstract
We report the observation of sharp plasmon and magnetoplasmon modes in ultra-low-density 2D electron systems. Well defined dispersions for the modes are observed at densities as low as 1.1×109 cm-2 and with excitation wave vectors as large as 1.2×105 cm-1. Interestingly, both modes are found to be more easily measured in low-density systems than in high-density systems. The strength of the light scattering cross-sections at low density suggests potential applications to the study of quantum phase transitions at large rs.
