Dielectric response of electrons with strong local correlations and long-ranged Coulomb interactions

Abstract

Motivated by recent experiments, we append long ranged Coulomb interactions to dominant strong local correlations and study the resulting $t$-$J$-$V_C$ model for the 2-dimensional cuprate materials. This model includes the effect of short ranged Hubbard-Gutzwiller-Kanamori type correlations and long ranged Coulomb interactions on tight binding electrons. We calculate the $\{\vec{q},\omega \}$ dependent charge density fluctuations in this model using the extremely correlated fermi liquid theory, characterized by quasiparticles with very small weight $Z$. We develop a novel set of formulae to represent the dynamical charge susceptibility and the dielectric function, using a version of the charge-current continuity equation for a band system valid for arbitrary $\vec{q}$. Combining these ingredients, we present results for the dynamical charge susceptibility ${\tilde{\chi }}_{\rho \rho }(\vec{q},\omega )$, (longitudinal) dielectric function $\epsilon (\vec{q},\omega )$, current susceptibility ${\tilde{\chi }}_{JJ}(\vec{q},\omega )$, conductivity $\sigma (\vec{q},\omega )$, and the plasma frequency for any $\vec{q}$. We also present calculations for the first moment of the structure function and discuss a characteristic energy scale ${\Omega }_p(\vec{q})$, which locates a peak in $\Im m{\tilde{\chi }}_{\rho \rho }(\vec{q},\omega )$.
