Abstract
We study the screening of an external potential produced by a two-dimensional gas of charged excitons (trions). We determine the contribution to the dielectric function induced by these composite charged particles within a random phase approximation. In mixtures of free electrons and trions, the trion response is found dominant. In the long wave-length limit, trions behave as point charges with mass equal to the sum of the three particle components. For finite wave-vectors, we show how the dielectric response is sensitive to the composite nature of trions and the internal degrees of freedom. Predictions are presented for the screening of a Coulomb potential, the scattering by charged impurities and the properties of trionic plasmons.
