Non Fermi Liquid Dynamics of the Two-Channel Kondo Lattice

arXiv:cond-mat/9609146 · doi:10.1016/S0921-4526(96)00747-8

Abstract

The paramagnetic phase of the two-channel Kondo lattice model is examined with a Quantum Monte Carlo simulation in the limit of infinite dimensions. We find non-Fermi-liquid behavior at low temperatures including a finite low-temperature single-particle scattering rate, no Fermi distribution discontinuity, and zero Drude weight. Both the optical and quasiparticle mass enhancement and scattering relaxation rate show consistent evidence of non-fermi liquid behavior. However, the low-energy density of electronic states is finite.
