We investigate the energy-loss function for a previously developed model of quasi-one-dimensional metals with two one-dimensional electron bands per donor and acceptor chains and the three-dimensional long-range Coulomb electron-electron interaction within the random phase approximation. It is essentially influenced by two hybridized collective modes which result from the strong coupling of the intraband plasmon and the interband dipolar modes. Our calculations show that the spectral weights of the renormalized plasmon and the dipolar mode dominate within the long wavelength limit, while for large longitudinal wave vectors the intraband electron-hole quasi-continuumgains some experimentally observable spectral weight as the second mode approaches it. The function obtained is brought into correspondence with the data of the quasi-one-dimensional organic conductor tetrathiafulvalene-tetracyanoquinodimethane (TTF-TCNQ) obtained from electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) measurements.
