Three 2D cases are considered: free electron gas, monolayer graphene and group-VI dichalcogenides. An exact form of the renormalized Green's function is used in the calculations, as obtained by a summation of the infinite Dyson series and regularization procedure. Final results are valid for large ranges of potential strengths $V_0$, electron densities $n_e$, magnetic fields $B$ and distances from the impurity $r$. Realistic models for the impurities are used. The first FO of induced density in WS$_2$ are described by the relation $\\Delta n(\\vec{r}) \\propto \\sin(2\\pi r/T_{FO})/r^2$, where $T_{FO} \\propto 1/\\sqrt{E_F}$. For weak impurity potentials, the amplitudes of FO are proportional to $V_0$. For attractive potentials and high fields the total electron density remains positive for all $r$. On the other hand, for low fields, repulsive potentials and small $r$, the total electron density may become negative, so that many-body effects should be taken into account.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-02-10T13:14:27.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "magnetic field", "monolayer graphene", "friedel oscillations", "group-vi dichalcogenides", "electron density remains positive" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 17, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
