  Momentum-resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy (q-EELS) enables the study of 2D materials by simultaneously capturing energy and momentum transfer with nanometer spatial resolution, probing excitations beyond the light cone and outside the first Brillouin zone. This technique provides unrivaled detail in the investigation of plasmons, excitons, phonons, and their coupling in 2D materials and across interfaces in heterostructures. This review covers the fundamentals of q-EELS, including resolution limits and detectability challenges. Current applications in graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, and transition metal dichalcogenides are surveyed. Emerging frontiers including magnons, cryogenic operation, and in situ capabilities promise to advance our understanding of low-dimensional materials.

  We present a detailed study of the dielectric response of ZnO using a combination of low-loss momentum- resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) and first-principles calculations at several levels of theory, from the independent particle and the random phase approximation with different variants of density functional theory (DFT), including hybrid and DFT + U schemes; to the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE). We use a method based on the f -sum rule to obtain the momentum-resolved experimental loss function and absorption spectra from EELS measurements. We characterize the main features in the direct and inverse dielectric functions of ZnO and their dispersion, associating them to single-particle features in the electronic band structure, while highlighting the important role of many-body effects such as plasmons and excitons. We discuss different signatures of the high anisotropy in the response function of ZnO, including the symmetry of the excitonic wave functions.
