Abstract

We consider a graphene sheet in the presence of a strong perpendicular magnetic field with a single short-range delta impurity situated at one of the carbon sites. We study the neutral inter-Landau level collective excitations, magnetoplasmons, which become localized on the impurity. Some of these excitations involve a pseudospin flip (intervalley transitions), since the impurity can scatter electrons between the two valleys. We propose a classification of states of the excitations in graphene and introduce the appropriate quantum numbers. The energies and optical strengths of collective excitations are calculated for a range of integer filling factors and impurity strengths. We establish a set of symmetries matching the energies and absorption strengths of collective excitations for different sublattice locations of the impurity, filling factors, circular light polarizations, and signs of the impurity potential.
