In this contribution, we advocate the possibility of designing auxiliary systems with effective potentials or kernels that target only the specific spectral properties of interest and are simpler than the self-energy of many-body perturbation theory or the exchange–correlation kernel of time-dependent density-functional theory.

An approximation scheme is proposed for implementing the algorithm to obtain the exact self-energy in the many-body problem [Phys. Rev.B52, 12708 (1995)]. This scheme relates the self-energy revision operator ℱ, the key quantity in the algorithm, with fxc(q,ω) the frequency-dependent exchange-correlation kernel appearing in the time-dependent density functional theory. We illustrate this scheme by applying it to the calculation of dynamic properties of the electron gas at metallic densities.

We derive a simplified Bethe–Salpeter equation for calculating optical absorption based on the assumption of a local electron–hole interaction. The original four-point equation for the kernel is reduced to a two-point one. A connection to the exchange–correlation kernel in time-dependent density functional theory can be established. The resulting fxc is found to be -W/2 where W contains only the short-range (local) part of the Coulomb screened interaction. This simple approximation was successfully applied to optical absorption spectra of some excitonic crystals, reproducing not only the continuum excitons but also the bound ones.

Two-dimensional boron is promising as a tunable monolayer metal for nano-optoelectronics. We study the optoelectronic properties of two likely allotropes of two-dimensional boron using first-principles density functional theory and many-body perturbation theory. We find that both systems are anisotropic metals, with strong energy- and thickness-dependent optical transparency and a weak (<1%) absorbance in the visible range. Additionally, using state-of-the-art methods for the description of the electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions, we show that the electrical conductivity is limited by electron-phonon interactions. Our results indicate that both structures are suitable as a transparent electrode.
