Cherenkov radiation generated in hexagonal boron nitride using extremely low-energy electrons
Cherenkov radiation (CR) is the electromagnetic shockwaves generated by the uniform motion of charged particles at a velocity exceeding the phase velocity of light in a given medium. In the Reststrahlen bands of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), hyperbolic phonon polaritons (HPPs) are generated owing t...
