The perturbation $\delta V$ is the electron-phonon interaction Hamiltonian, $H_e-ph$. For long-wavelength acoustic phonons (sound waves), the lattice is locally dilated or compressed. A change in volume changes the bottom of the conduction band (or top of the valence band). This is captured by the deformation potential constant , $E_1$:
If an ion at position $\mathbfR$ displaces by $\mathbfu(\mathbfR, t)$ due to a phonon, the potential $V(\mathbfr)$ experienced by an electron at position $\mathbfr$ changes. The total potential is: ziman principles of the theory of solids 13
$$H_e-ph = \sum_\mathbfk, \mathbfk', \lambda M_\lambda(\mathbfq) , c_\mathbfk'^\dagger c_\mathbfk (a_\mathbfq\lambda + a_-\mathbfq\lambda^\dagger)$$ t)$ due to a phonon
