Coherent and incoherent bands in La and Rh doped Sr3Ir2O7
In Sr2IrO4 and Sr3Ir2O7, correlations, magnetism and spin-orbit coupling
compete on similar energy scales, creating a new context to study
metal-insulator transitions (MIT). We use here Angle-Resolved photoemission to
investigate the MIT as a function of hole and electron doping in Sr3Ir2O7,
obtained respectively by Ir/Rh and Sr/La substitutions. We show that there is a
clear reduction as a function of doping of the gap between a lower and upper
band on both sides of the Fermi level, from 0.2eV to 0.05eV. Although these two
bands have a counterpart in band structure calculations, they are characterized
by a very different degree of coherence. The upper band exhibits clear
quasiparticle peaks, while the lower band is very broad and loses weight as a
function of doping. Moreover, their ARPES spectral weights obey different
periodicities, reinforcing the idea of their different nature. We argue that a
very similar situation occurs in Sr2IrO4 and conclude that the physics of the
two families is essentially the same
Significant reduction of electronic correlations upon isovalent Ru substitution of BaFe2As2
We present a detailed investigation of Ba(Fe0.65Ru0.35)2As2 by transport
measurements and Angle Resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We observe that Fe
and Ru orbitals hybridize to form a coherent electronic structure and that Ru
does not induce doping. The number of holes and electrons, deduced from the
area of the Fermi Surface pockets, are both about twice larger than in
BaFe2As2. The contribution of both carriers to the transport is evidenced by a
change of sign of the Hall coefficient with decreasing temperature. Fermi
velocities increase significantly with respect to BaFe2As2, suggesting a
significant reduction of correlation effects. This may be a key to understand
the appearance of superconductivity at the expense of magnetism in undoped iron
pnictides
Giant Anisotropy of Spin-Orbit Splitting at the Bismuth Surface
We investigate the bismuth (111) surface by means of time and angle resolved
photoelectron spectroscopy. The parallel detection of the surface states below
and above the Fermi level reveals a giant anisotropy of the Spin-Orbit (SO)
spitting. These strong deviations from the Rashba-like coupling cannot be
treated in perturbation theory. Instead, first
principle calculations could accurately reproduce the experimental dispersion
of the electronic states. Our analysis shows that the giant anisotropy of the
SO splitting is due to a large out-of plane buckling of the spin and orbital
texture.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
A wide band gap metal-semiconductor-metal nanostructure made entirely from graphene
A blueprint for producing scalable digital graphene electronics has remained
elusive. Current methods to produce semiconducting-metallic graphene networks
all suffer from either stringent lithographic demands that prevent
reproducibility, process-induced disorder in the graphene, or scalability
issues. Using angle resolved photoemission, we have discovered a unique one
dimensional metallic-semiconducting-metallic junction made entirely from
graphene, and produced without chemical functionalization or finite size
patterning. The junction is produced by taking advantage of the inherent,
atomically ordered, substrate-graphene interaction when it is grown on SiC, in
this case when graphene is forced to grow over patterned SiC steps. This
scalable bottomup approach allows us to produce a semiconducting graphene strip
whose width is precisely defined within a few graphene lattice constants, a
level of precision entirely outside modern lithographic limits. The
architecture demonstrated in this work is so robust that variations in the
average electronic band structure of thousands of these patterned ribbons have
little variation over length scales tens of microns long. The semiconducting
graphene has a topologically defined few nanometer wide region with an energy
gap greater than 0.5 eV in an otherwise continuous metallic graphene sheet.
This work demonstrates how the graphene-substrate interaction can be used as a
powerful tool to scalably modify graphene's electronic structure and opens a
new direction in graphene electronics research.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figure
