Abstract
In this work, we report on theoretical study of the effect of electron-phonon (EP) interaction in THz frequency and temperature dependence of the electrical resistivity in heavy fermion (HF) systems. For this purpose, a model Hamiltonian is considered which consists of the Heisenberg type exchange interaction between localized moments and a tight binding model called the Kondo lattice model (KLM). The effect of EP coupling on electrical resistivity is presented by considering phonon interaction to bare f-electrons, band electrons and to the hybridization between band and f-electrons as a perturbed term. The phonon Hamiltonian in harmonic approximation is also included. The model Hamiltonian is solved by employing the mean-field theory (MFT) along with the Hubbard model of approximation. The temperature- and frequency-dependent electrical resistivity exhibits change in slopes at T[Formula: see text] as well as at T[Formula: see text]. The theoretical findings from the graphical analysis by varying the model parameters g[Formula: see text], g[Formula: see text] and g[Formula: see text] are compared to some of the experimental results in HF systems.
