The Shrinking Fermi Liquid Scenario for Strange-Metal Behavior from Overdamped Optical Phonons

We discuss how the interaction of electrons with an overdamped optical phonon can give rise to a strange-metal behavior over extended temperature and frequency ranges. Although the mode has a finite frequency, an increasing damping shifts spectral weight to progressively lower energies so that despi...
