A criterion for strange metallicity in the Lorenz ratio
Abstract The Wiedemann-Franz (WF) law, stating that the Lorenz ratio L = κ/(T σ) between the thermal and electrical conductivities in a metal approaches a universal constant $${L}_{0}={\pi }^{2}{k}_{B}^{2}/(3{e}^{2})$$ L 0 = π 2 k B 2 / ( 3 e 2 ) at low temperatures, is often interpreted as a signat...
