The electrodynamical properties of solids can be
described by a number of so-called “optical constants”:
complex refractive index, or complex dielectric constants,
or complex conductivity. The charge excitations of an
electronic system is directly reflected in those “constants”.
Those optical constants could be probed either directly
(ellipsometry, ultrfast laser-based time domain terahertz
spectroscopy,…) or indirectly (reflectance
measurement over broad frequencies). 版权所有,请勿转载

Sum rule
f-sum rule:
It has the explicit implication that at energies higher than the total
bandwidth of a solid, electrons behave as free particles.
Kubo partial
sum-rule:
The upper limit of the integration is much larger than the bandwidth
of a given band crossing the Fermi level but still smaller than the
energy of interband transitions. For , the Kubo sum
rule reduces to the f-sum rule.
WK depends on T and on the state of the system because of nk---
"violation of the conductivity sum rule", first studied by Hirsch.

in the tight
binding model
In reality, there is no true violation: the change of the spectral weight of a given band would be
compensated by an appropriate change in the spectral weight in other bands, and the total
spectral weight over all bands is conserved.
