| Popis: | Elucidating the impact of strong electronic interactions on the collective excitations of metallic systems has been of longstanding interest, mainly due to the inadequacy of the random phase approximation (RPA) in the strongly correlated regime. Here, we adopt our newly developed radial Kotliar and Ruckenstein slave boson representation to analyze the charge excitation spectrum of a Hubbard model, extended with long range interactions. Working on the face centered cubic lattice, at half filling, and in different coupling regimes ranging from uncorrelated to the metal-to-insulator transition, we compare our results to conventional RPA as a benchmark. We focus on the influence of the local and long range couplings on the particle-hole excitation continuum and the plasmon and upper Hubbard band collective modes. Beyond the weak coupling regime, we find numerous quantitative and even qualitative discrepancies between our method and standard RPA. Our work thus deepens the understanding of charge collective modes in correlated systems, and lays the foundations for future studies of a broad series of materials.
