We present the first reliable calculation of the collective mode structure of a strongly coupled electronic bilayer. The calculation is based on a classical model through the $3^{rd}$ frequency-moment-sum-rule preserving Quasi Localized Charge Approximation, using the recently calculated Hypernetted Chain pair correlation functions. The spectrum shows an energy gap at $k=0$ and the absence of a previously conjectured dynamical instability.

The concept of Fermi liquid lays a solid cornerstone to the understanding of electronic correlations in quantum matter. This ordered many-body state rigorously organizes electrons at zero temperature in progressively higher momentum states, up to the Fermi surface. As such, it displays rigidity against perturbations. Such rigidity generates Fermi-surface resonances which manifest as longitudinal and transverse collective modes. Although these Fermi-liquid collective modes have been analyzed and observed in electrically neutral liquid helium, they remain unexplored in charged solid-state systems up to date. In this paper I analyze the transverse shear response of charged three-dimensional Fermi liquids as a function of temperature, excitation frequency and momentum, for interactions expressed in terms of the first symmetric Landau parameter. I consider the effect of momentum-conserving quasiparticle collisions and momentum-relaxing scattering in relaxation-time approximation on the coupling between photons and Fermi-surface collective modes, thus deriving the Fermi-liquid optical conductivity and dielectric function. In the high-frequency, long-wavelength excitation regime the electrodynamic response entails two coherent and frequency-degenerate polaritons, and its spatial nonlocality is encoded by a frequency- and interaction-dependent generalized shear modulus; in the opposite high-momentum low-frequency regime anomalous skin effect takes place. I identify observable signatures of propagating shear collective modes in optical spectroscopy experiments, with applications to the surface impedance and the optical transmission of thin films.
We show that a two-dimensional (2D) isotropic Fermi liquid harbors two new types of collective modes, driven by quantum fluctuations, in addition to conventional zero sound: hidden and mirage modes. The hidden modes occur for relatively weak attracti ve interaction both in the charge and spin channels with any angular momentum $l$. Instead of being conventional damped resonances within the particle-hole continuum, the hidden modes propagate at velocities larger than the Fermi velocity and have infinitesimally small damping in the clean limit, but are invisible to spectroscopic probes. The mirage modes are also propagating modes outside the particle-hole continuum that occur for sufficiently strong repulsion interaction in channels with $lgeq 1$. They do give rise to peaks in spectroscopic probes, but are not true poles of the dynamical susceptibility. We argue that both hidden and mirage modes occur due to a non-trivial topological structure of the Riemann surface, defined by the dynamical susceptibility. The hidden modes reside below a branch cut that glues two sheets of the Riemann surface, while the mirage modes reside on an unphysical sheet of the Riemann surface. We show that both types of modes give rise to distinct features in time dynamics of a 2D Fermi liquid that can be measured in pump-probe experiments.
In this work we consider the hydrodynamic behavior of a coupled electron-phonon fluid, focusing on electronic transport under the conditions of strong phonon drag. This regime occurs when the rate of phonon equilibration due to e.g. umklapp scatterin g is much slower than the rate of normal electron-phonon collisions. Then phonons and electrons form a coupled out-of-equilibrium state where the total quasi-momentum of the electron-phonon fluid is conserved. A joint flow-velocity emerges as a collective hydrodynamic variable. We derive the equation of motion for this fluid from the underlying microscopic kinetic theory and elucidate its effective viscosity and thermal conductivity. In particular, we derive decay times of arbitrary harmonics of the distribution function and reveal its corresponding super-diffusive relaxation on the Fermi surface. We further consider several applications of this theory to magneto-transport properties in the Hall-bar and Corbino-disk geometries, relevant to experiments. In our analysis we allow for general boundary conditions that cover the crossover from no-slip to no-stress flows. Our approach also covers a crossover from the Stokes to the Ohmic regime under the conditions of the Gurzhi effect. In addition, we consider the frequency dependence of the surface impedance and non-equilibrium noise. For the latter, we notice that in the diffusive regime, a Fokker-Planck approximation, applied to the electron-phonon collision integral in the Eliashberg form, reduces it to a differential operator with Burgers nonlinearity. As a result, the non-equilibrium distribution function has a shock-wave structure in the energy domain. The consequence of this behavior for the Fano factor of the noise is investigated. In conclusion we discuss connections and limitations of our results in the context of recent electron-phonon drag measurements in Dirac and Weyl semimetals.
Semi-holographic models of non-Fermi liquids have been shown to have generically stable generalised quasi-particles on the Fermi surface. Although these excitations are broad and exhibit particle-hole asymmetry, they were argued to be stable from int eractions at the Fermi surface. In this work, we use this observation to compute the density response and collective behaviour in these systems. Compared to the Fermi liquid case, we find that the boundaries of the particle-hole continuum are blurred by incoherent contributions. However, there is a region inside this continuum, that we call inner core, within which salient features of the Fermi liquid case are preserved. A particularly striking prediction of our work is that these systems support a plasmonic collective excitation which is well-defined at large momenta, has an approximately linear dispersion relation and is located in the low-energy tail of the particle-hole continuum. Furthermore, the dynamic screening potential shows deep attractive regions as a function of the distance at higher frequencies which might lead to long-lived pair formation depending on the behaviour of the pair susceptibility. We also find that Friedel oscillations are present in these systems but are highly suppressed.
A generalized hydrodynamical model has been used to study low frequency modes in a strongly coupled, cold, magnetized dusty plasma. Such plasmas exhibit elastic properties due to strong correlations among dust particles and the tensile stresses impar ted by the magnetic field. It has been shown that longitudinal compressional Alfven modes and elasticity modified transverse shear mode exist in such a medium. The features of these collective modes are established and discussed.
