Coexistence of Bloch electrons and glassy electrons in Ca10(Ir4As8)(Fe2_xIrxAs2)5 revealed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy
Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of Ca10(Ir4As8)(Fe2_xIrxAs2)5 shows
that the Fe 3d electrons in the FeAs layer form the hole-like Fermi pocket at
the zone center and the electron-like Fermi pockets at the zone corners as
commonly seen in various Fe-based superconductors. The FeAs layer is heavily
electron doped and has relatively good two dimensionality. On the other hand,
the Ir 5d electrons are metallic and glassy probably due to atomic disorder
related to the Ir 5d orbital instability. Ca10(Ir4As8)(Fe2_xIrxAs2)5 exhibits a
unique electronic state where the Bloch electrons in the FeAs layer coexist
with the glassy electrons in the Ir4As8 layer.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Te 5p orbitals bring three-dimensional electronic structure to two-dimensional Ir0.95Pt0.05Te2
We have studied the nature of the three-dimensional multi-band electronic
structure in the twodimensional triangular lattice Ir1-xPtxTe2 (x=0.05)
superconductor using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), x-ray
photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) and band structure calculation. ARPES results
clearly show a cylindrical (almost two-dimensional) Fermi surface around the
zone center. Near the zone boundary, the cylindrical Fermi surface is truncated
into several pieces in a complicated manner with strong three-dimensionality.
The XPS result and the band structure calculation indicate that the strong Te
5p-Te 5p hybridization between the IrTe2 triangular lattice layers is
responsible for the three-dimensionality of the Fermi surfaces and the
intervening of the Fermi surfaces observed by ARPES.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure
Temperature dependent Eu 3d-4f X-ray Absorption and Resonant Photoemission Study of the Valence Transition in
We study the mixed valence transition ( 80 K) in
EuNi(SiGe) using Eu 3 X-ray absorption
spectroscopy (XAS) and resonant photoemission spectroscopy (RESPES). The
Eu and Eu main peaks show a giant resonance and the spectral
features match very well with atomic multiplet calculations. The spectra show
dramatic temperature ()-dependent changes over large energies (10 eV)
in RESPES and XAS. The observed non-integral mean valencies of 2.35
0.03 ( = 120 K) and 2.70 0.03 ( = 40 K) indicate homogeneous
mixed valence above and below . The redistribution between
Eu+ and Eu+ states is attributed to
a hybridization change coupled to a Kondo-like volume collapse.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
Hole-doping-induced changes in the electronic structure of LaSrFeO : soft x-ray photoemission and absorption study of epitaxial thin films
We have studied the electronic structure of epitaxially grown thin films of
LaSrFeO by {\it in-situ} photoemission spectroscopy (PES) and
x-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) measurements. The Fe 2 and valence-band
PES spectra and the O XAS spectra of LaFeO have been successfully
reproduced by configuration-interaction cluster-model calculation and, except
for the satellite structure, by band-structure calculation.From the shift of
the binding energies of core levels, the chemical potential was found to be
shifted downward as was increased. Among the three peaks in the
valence-band spectra of LaSrFeO, the peak nearest to the Fermi
level (), due to the `` band'', was found to move toward and
became weaker as was increased, whereas the intensity of the peak just
above in the O XAS spectra increased with . The gap or pseudogap
at was seen for all values of . These results indicate that changes in
the spectral line shape around are dominated by spectral weight transfer
from below to above across the gap and are therefore highly
non-rigid-band-like.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figure
Bulk screening in core level photoemission from Mott-Hubbard and Charge-Transfer systems
We report bulk-sensitive hard X-ray ( = 5.95 KeV) core level
photoemission spectroscopy (PES) of single crystal VCrO
and the high- cuprate BiSrCaCuO (Bi2212).
VCrO exhibits low binding energy "satellites" to the V
"main lines" in the metallic phase, which are suppressed in the
antiferromagnetic insulator phase. In contrast, the Cu spectra of Bi2212
do not show temperature dependent features, but a comparison with soft X-ray
PES indicates a large increase in the "satellites" or weight
in the bulk. Cluster model calculations, including full multiplet structure and
a screening channel derived from the coherent band at the Fermi energy, give
very satisfactory agreement with experiments
