Optical properties of perovskite alkaline earth titanates : a formulation
arXiv:cond-mat/0203042 · doi:10.1088/0953-8984/14/15/301
Abstract
In this communication we suggest a formulation of the optical conductivity as a convolution of an energy resolved joint density of states and an energy-frequency labelled transition rate. Our final aim is to develop a scheme based on the augmented space recursion for random systems. In order to gain confidence in our formulation, we apply the formulation to three alkaline earth titanates CaTiO_3, SrTiO_3 and BaTiO_3 and compare our results with available data on optical properties of these systems.
