Abstract We investigate the temperature-dependent infrared spectroscopy of SrMnSb2, which is a semimetal with multiple Fermi surfaces. A notable blue shift of the plasma minimum in reflectivity upon cooling indicates that the carrier density varies with temperature. In the real part of the optical conductivity σ1(ω), a linearly-increased component which extrapolates to zero conductivity at finite frequency has been identified, which suggests dispersion of gapped Dirac band structures near the Fermi level. A two-Drude model, representing two different types of carriers, is introduced to describe the real part of optical conductivity. We separate the contributions of two-Drude model in dc conductivity, and demonstrate that the transport properties of SrMnSb2 are mainly affected by the narrow-Drude quasiparticles. Compared with the similar phenomena observed in CaMnSb2 and SrMnBi2, we can infer that the two-Drude model is an appropriate approach to investigate the multiband materials in AMnSb2 and AMnBi2 families.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
