Abstract

We present a unified derivation of the dynamical correlation functions including density-density, density-current and current-current, of three-dimensional Weyl/Dirac semimetals by use of the Passarino-Veltman reduction scheme at zero temperature. The generalized Kramers-Kronig relations with arbitrary order of subtraction are established to verify these correlation functions. Our results lead to the exact chiral magnetic conductivity and directly recover the previous ones in several limits. We also investigate the magnetic susceptibilities, the orbital magnetization and briefly discuss the impact of electron interactions on these physical quantities within the random phase approximation. Our work could provide a starting point for the investigation of the nonlocal transport and optical properties due to the higher-order spatial dispersion in three-dimensional Weyl/Dirac semimetals.
