Transverse electric plasmons in bilayer graphene

We predict the existence of transverse electric (TE) plasmons in bilayer graphene. We find that their plasmonic properties are much more pronounced in bilayer than in monolayer graphene, in a sense that they can get more localized at frequencies just below $\hbarω=0.4$~eV for adequate doping values. This is a consequence of the perfectly nested bands in bilayer graphene which are separated by $\sim 0.4$~eV.
