Electron-Phonon Interaction and Raman Linewidth in Superconducting Fullerides

Abstract

We propose a microscopic theory of interaction of long wave molecular phonons with electrons in fullerides in the presence of disorder. Phonon relaxation rate and frequency renormalization are discussed. Finite electronic bandwidth reduces phonon relaxation rate at $q=0$. Electron-phonon coupling constants with molecular modes in fullerides are estimated. The results are in good agreement with photoemission experiments.
