We investigate the temperature and doping dependences of the midinfrared band in the optical conductivity of electron-doped cuprates in terms of magnetic/lattice polaron formation. We employ dynamical mean-field theory in the context of the Holstein-t-J model for the specific case of Nd2-xCexCuO4. We find that the onset of short-range magnetic correlations at the pseudogap temperature triggers the formation of the lattice polaron responsible for the midinfrared band.

Abstract
We investigate the temperature and doping dependences of the midinfrared band in the optical conductivity of electron-doped cuprates in terms of magnetic/lattice polaron formation. We employ dynamical mean-field theory in the context of the Holstein-t-J model for the specific case of Nd2-xCexCuO4. We find that the onset of short-range magnetic correlations at the pseudogap temperature triggers the formation of the lattice polaron responsible for the midinfrared band.File in questo prodotto:
