Evidence of a coupled electron-phonon liquid in NbGe2

Philip Johannes Walter Moll, Matthias Carsten Putzke, Mathieu François Padlewski

Whereas electron-phonon scattering relaxes the electron's momentum in metals, a perpetual exchange of momentum between phonons and electrons may conserve total momentum and lead to a coupled electron-phonon liquid. Such a phase of matter could be a platfor ...
