Propagation of shear stress in strongly interacting metallic Fermi liquids enhances transmission of terahertz radiation

Abstract
A highlight of Fermi-liquid phenomenology, as explored in neutral He, is the observation that in the collisionless regime shear stress propagates as if one is dealing with the transverse phonon of a solid. The existence of this transverse zero sound requires that the quasiparticle mass enhancement exceeds a critical value. Could such a propagating shear stress also exist in strongly correlated electron systems? Despite some noticeable differences with the neutral case in the Galilean continuum, we arrive at the verdict that transverse zero sound should be generic. We present an experimental setup that should be exquisitely sensitive in this regard: the transmission of terahertz radiation through a thin slab of heavy-fermion material will be strongly enhanced at low temperature and accompanied by giant oscillations, which reflect the interference between light itself and the material photon being the actual manifestation of transverse zero sound in the charged Fermi liquid.
