Using Green's function method, the frequency dependence of optical conductivities of high-quality MgB2 film is calculated in the framework of the single-and two-band model. By comparing the numerical and experimental results, it is shown that the single-gap isotropic model is insufficient to understand consistently optical behaviors. Also, it is concluded that the two-band model consistently describes the optical behaviors. In the two-gap model, we consider that the both components of optical conductivity are a weighted sum of the contribution from σ and π bonds and hybridization between them is negligible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
