Optical response for a discrete stripe

arXiv:cond-mat/0311626 · doi:10.1016/j.physc.2004.03.022

Abstract

The optical response of a charge stripe in the presence of pinning impurities is investigated. We address the issue of a discrete description of the stripe, and discuss its quantitative relevance with respect to a continuum one in the light of recent optical-conductivity measurements in cuprate compounds.
