Optical spectral weight transfer associated with the onset of superconductivity at high-energy scales compared with the superconducting gap has been observed in several systems such as high-T_c cuprates. While there are still debates on the origin of this phenomenon, a consensus is that it is due to strong correlation effects beyond the BCS theory. Here, we show that there is another route to a nonzero spectral weight transfer based on the quantum geometry of the conduction band in multiband systems. Further, we discuss applying this idea to the cuprates and twisted multilayer graphene.
