We have studied the charge-density oscillations (plasmons) of a two-dimensional electron gas within the framework of finite temperature and frequency independent (static) version of Singwi, Tosi, Land and Sj ölander approximation. We have shown that even at high densities the finite temperature and

Abstract
We have investigated the effect of temperature on plasmon dispersion in a GaAs‐based quasi one‐dimensional electron gas (Q1DEG) by finding the roots of the temperature‐dependent dielectric function of the system in which the local field correction has been included through a generalized definition of the Hubbard approximation at low temperatures. We have compared temperature‐dependent plasmon frequencies with zero‐temperature Hubbard results and obtained an increase in plasmon energy with increasing temperature. For comparison, we have also considered the plasmon dispersion previously obtained from random phase approximation (RPA) calculations at both zero and finite temperatures. Our results show that the RPA plasma oscillations have higher energy than Hubbard approximation plasmons, not only at zero temperature but also at finite temperature.
