This is a list of quasiparticles.
Quasiparticle | Signification | Underlying particles |
---|---|---|
Anyon | A type of quasiparticle that occurs only in two-dimensional systems, with properties much less restricted than fermions and bosons. | |
Bion | A bound state of solitons, named for Born-Infeld model | soliton |
Bipolaron | A bound pair of two polarons | polaron (electron, phonon) |
Bogoliubon | Broken Cooper pair | electron, hole |
Configuron[1] | An elementary configurational excitation in an amorphous material which involves breaking of a chemical bond | |
Dislon | A localized collective excitation associated with a dislocation in crystalline solids.[2] It emerges from the quantization of the lattice displacement field of a classical dislocation | |
Dropleton | The first known quasiparticle that behaves like a liquid[3] | |
Electron quasiparticle | An electron as affected by the other forces and interactions in the solid | electron |
Electron hole (hole) | A lack of electron in a valence band | electron, cation |
Exciton | A bound state of an electron and a hole | electron, hole |
Fracton | A collective quantized vibration on a substrate with a fractal structure. | |
Fracton (subdimensional particle) | An emergent quasiparticle excitation that is immobile when in isolation. | |
Holon (chargon) | A quasi-particle resulting from electron spin-charge separation | |
Leviton | A collective excitation of a single electron within a metal | |
Magnon | A coherent excitation of electron spins in a material | |
Majorana fermion | A quasiparticle equal to its own antiparticle, emerging as a midgap state in certain superconductors | |
Nematicon | A soliton in nematic liquid crystal media | |
Orbiton[4] | A quasiparticle resulting from electron spin-orbital separation | |
Oscillon | A soliton-like single wave in vibrating media | |
Phason | Vibrational modes in a quasicrystal associated with atomic rearrangements | |
Phoniton | A theoretical quasiparticle which is a hybridization of a localized, long-living phonon and a matter excitation[5] | |
Phonon | Vibrational modes in a crystal lattice associated with atomic shifts | |
Plasmaron | A quasiparticle emerging from the coupling between a plasmon and a hole | |
Plasmon | A coherent excitation of a plasma | |
Polaron | A moving charged quasiparticle that is surrounded by ions in a material | electron, phonon |
Polariton | A mixture of photon with other quasiparticles | photon, optical phonon |
Roton | Elementary excitation in superfluid helium-4 | |
Soliton | A self-reinforcing solitary excitation wave | |
Spinon | A quasiparticle produced as a result of electron spin-charge separation that can form both quantum spin liquid and strongly correlated quantum spin liquid | |
Trion | A coherent excitation of three quasiparticles (two holes and one electron or two electrons and one hole) | |
Wrinklon | A localized excitation corresponding to wrinkles in a constrained two dimensional system[6][7] |
