Quasiparticle lifetime in disordered two-dimensional metals

Abrahams, Elihu, Anderson, P. W., Lee, P. A., Ramakrishnan, T. V.·1981·Physical Review B

Abstract

A calculation of the electron quasiparticle lifetime in a disordered metal due to electron-electron scattering is given. The calculation takes account of the diffusive nature of electron motion which leads to enhancement of the diagonal exchange term of the electron self-energy. The lifetime, as a function of temperature, behaves as ${T}^{\ensuremath{-}\frac{d}{2}}$ where $d$ is the dimensionality, in contrast to the ${T}^{\ensuremath{-}2}$ behavior of ordinary Fermi-liquid theory. At $d=2$, a logarithmic singularity occurs which leads to ${(T\mathrm{ln}T)}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ behavior of the lifetime and a failure of the quasiparticle picture near the Fermi surface. The calculated lifetime agrees in temperature, Fermi energy, and elastic mean-free-path dependence with recent experiments on silicon inversion layers.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
