Probing the Quantum Geometry of Correlated Metals Using Optical Conductivity
Author(s): Deven P. Carmichael and Martin Claassen
Recent studies have revealed that the quantum geometry of electronic bands determines the electromagnetic properties of noninteracting insulators and semimetals. However, the role of quantum geometry in the optical responses of interacting electron systems remains largely unexplored. Here, we examin… [Phys. Rev. Lett. 137, 086503] Published Tue Aug 18, 2026
