  14. Conclusions. Open questions • l Plasmondispersion can beaccuratelymeasured in nanoribbons. • Plasmonlinewidth can beexplainedby simple mechanisms • Themaindecaychannel at highfrequenciesisdecayintoopticalphonons and electron-holepairs • The role of otherdecaychannelsis in reasonableagreementwith simple estimates • l Coulomb blockade, interplaybetweenplasmons and dctransport
