We add a gravitational background lattice to the simplest holographic model of matter at finite density and calculate the optical conductivity. With the lattice, the zero frequency delta function found in previous calculations (resulting…
We calculate the optical conductivity in a clean system of quasiparticles coupled to charge-ordering collective modes. The absorption induced by these modes may produce an anomalous frequency and temperature dependence of low-energy optical…
We add a periodic potential to the simplest gravitational model of a superconductor and compute the optical conductivity. In addition to a superfluid component, we find a normal component that has Drude behavior at low frequency followed by…
A Monte Carlo-maximum entropy calculation of the optical conductivity of the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model is presented. We show that the optical conductivity displays the anomalies found in the cuprate superconductors, including a…
Understanding the origin of electron incoherence is believed to be the first step toward the resolution of the mysteries of the high-T$_{c}$ cuprate superconductors. Such electron incoherence manifests itself most evidently in the non-Drude…
We present a theory of optical conductivity in systems with finite-momentum Cooper pairs. In contrast to the BCS pairing where AC conductivity is purely imaginary in the clean limit, there is nonzero AC absorption across the superconducting…
The optical conductivity along and perpendicular to the planes is calculated assuming strong k-dependence of the scattering rate and the c-axis hopping parameter. Closed analytical expressions for the optical conductivy along these…
In this expository article, we present a systematic formal derivation of the Kubo formula for the linear-response current due to a time-harmonic electric field applied to non-interacting, spinless charged particles in a finite volume in the…
We calculate the longitudinal ($\sigma_{xx}$) and Hall ($\sigma_{xy}$) optical conductivities for two-dimensional metals with thermally disordered antiferromagnetism using a generalization of an approximation introduced by Lee, Rice and…
Motivated by the overwhelming evidence some type of quantum criticality underlies the power-law for the optical conductivity and $T-$linear resistivity in the cuprates, we demonstrate here how a scale-invariant or unparticle sector can lead…
We begin with an overview of the experimental results for the temperature and doping dependences of the optical-conductivity spectral weight in cuprate superconductors across the whole phase diagram. Then we discuss recent attempts to…
In computing electric conductivity based on the Kubo formula, the vertex corrections describe such effects as anisotropic scattering and quantum interference and are important to quantum transport properties. These vertex corrections are…
A computational method to obtain optical conductivities from first principles is presented. It exploits a relation between the conductivity and the complex dielectric function, which is constructed from the full electronic band structure…
We consider the optical conductivity $\sigma_1(\omega)$ in the metallic phase of the one-dimensional Hubbard model. Our results focus on the vicinity of half filling and the frequency regime around the optical gap in the Mott insulating…
The optical conductivity of the one-band Hubbard model is calculated using the 'Dynamical Cluster Approximation' implementation of dynamical mean field theory for parameters appropriate to high temperature copper-oxide superconductors. The…
A microscopic theory of the electrical conductivity $\sigma(\omega)$ within the t-J model is developed. An exact representation for $\sigma(\omega)$ is obtained using the memory-function technique for the relaxation function in terms of the…
We investigate optical transitions of non-interacting electron systems consisting of two symmetric energy bands touching each other at the Fermi energy (e.g. graphene at half filling). Optical conductivity is obtained using Kubo formula at…
The optical conductivity and Drude weight of a Spin-Fermion model for cuprates are studied as a function of electronic density and temperature. This model develops stripes and robust D-wave pairing correlation upon hole doping, and it has…
We study the Cu and O spectral density of states and the optical conductivity of CuO_2 planes using an effective generalized one-band Hubbard model derived from the extended three-band Hubbard model. We solve exactly a square cluster of 10…
Materials tuned to a quantum critical point display universal scaling properties as a function of temperature $T$ and frequency $\omega$. A long-standing puzzle regarding cuprate superconductors has been the observed power-law dependence of…
