Opening of a gap in the low-energy excitations spectrum affects the power-law singularity in the photon absorption spectrum $A(\Omega)$. In the normal state, the singularity, $A(\Omega)\propto [D/(\Omega-\Omega_{\rm th})]^\alpha$, is…

An optical "pseudogap" is usually assumed to open at low T in the "anomalous Drude" absorption, which models the optical conductivity sigma(omega) (proportional to omega-1) of HCTS by a linewidth Gamma (on the order of 1000 cm-1) varying…
Taking account of a collective mode relevant to charge fluctuation, the optical conductivity of spin-density-wave state has been examined for an extended Hubbard model with one-dimensional quarter-filled band. We find that, within the…
The optical conductivity of a metal near a quantum critical point (QCP) is expected to depend on frequency not only via the scattering time but also via the effective mass, which acquires a singular frequency dependence near a QCP. We check…
