The $(π,π)$ shadow band (SB) in La-based cuprate family (La214) was studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) over a wide doping range from $x=0.01$ to $x=0.25$. Unlike the well-studied case of the Bi-based cuprate family, an overall strong, monotonic doping dependence of the SB intensity at the Fermi level ($E_F$) was observed. In contrast to a previous report for the presence of the SB only close to $x=1/8$, we found it exists in a wide doping range, associated with a doping-independent $(π,π)$ wave vector but strongly doping-dependent intensity: It is the strongest at $x\sim 0.03$ and systematically diminishes as the doping increases until it becomes negligible in the overdoped regime. This SB with the observed doping dependence of intensity can in principle be caused by the antiferromagnetic fluctuations or a particular form of low-temperature orthorhombic lattice distortion known to persist up to $x\sim 0.21$ in the system, with both being weakened with increasing doping. However, a detailed binding energy dependent analysis of the SB at $x=0.07$ does not appear to support the former interpretation, leaving the latter as a more plausible candidate, despite a challenge in quantitatively linking the doping dependences of the SB intensity and the magnitude of the lattice distortion. Our finding highlights the necessity of a careful and global consideration of the inherent structural complications for correctly understanding the cuprate Fermiology and its microscopic implication.
In the course of seeking the microscopic mechanism of superconductivity in cuprate high temperature superconductors, the pseudogap phase\textemdash the very abnormal 'normal' state on the hole-doped side\textemdash has proven to be as big of a quandary as superconductivity itself. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is a powerful tool for assessing the momentum-dependent phenomenology of the pseudogap, and recent technological developments have permitted a more detailed understanding. This report reviews recent progress in understanding the relationship between superconductivity …
Temperature dependence of the angle resolved photoemission spectra in the undoped cuprates: self-consistent approach to the t-J-Holstein model
我们开发了一种新的自洽方法来研究角分辨光电子能谱(ARPES)的一个洞的t-J-Holstein模型给出完美的协议与数字精确的Diagrammatic Monte Carlo数据在零温度下的所有制度的电子-声子耦合。推广到有限温度的方法,我们发现,在未掺杂的铜酸盐的ARPES的异常温度依赖性的解释合作的相互作用的耦合的孔的磁波动和强的电子-声子相互作用。
A major remaining challenge in the superconducting cuprates is the unambiguous differentiation of the composition and electronic structure of the CuO$_2$ layers and those of the intermediate layers. The large c axis for these materials permits employing soft x-ray (930.3 eV) standing wave (SW) excitation in photoemission that yields atomic layer-by-atomic layer depth resolution of these properties. Applying SW photoemission to Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ yields the depth distribution of atomic composition and the layer-resolved densities of states. We detect significant Ca presence in the Sr…
The origin of a ubiquitous bosonic coupling feature in the photoemission spectra of high-Tc cuprates, an energy-momentum dispersion 'kink' observed at ~70 meV binding energy, remains a two-decade-old mystery. Understanding this phenomenon requires an accurate description of the coupling between the electron and some collective modes. We report here ab initio calculations based on GW perturbation theory and show that correlation-enhanced electron-phonon interaction in cuprates gives rise to the strong kinks, which not only explains quantitatively the observations but provides new understanding …

Influence of the Third Dimension of Quasi-Two-Dimensional Cuprate Superconductors on Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectra
角分辨光电子能谱(ARPES)在分析严格的二维(2D)材料时表现出显着的简化,但即使是最各向异性的物理系统也显示出一些残余的三维性。在这里,我们演示了如何第三个维度体现在准二维材料的ARPES光谱考虑的例子,铜酸盐铋$_2$锶$_2$钙铜$_2$ O $_{8}$(Bi 2212)。胞间,层间跳跃,这是负责$k_z$色散的频带,被发现诱导一个不可约的扩大的ARPES线的形状与特征依赖于面内动量$k_\parallel$。我们的研究表明,ARPES线型可以提供一个直接的光谱窗口,通过检测这种新的增宽机制,建立在材料中的相干c轴电导率的存在,并承担通过ARPES实验在新材料中的2D到3D交叉和赝能隙和条纹物理的理解。
We performed an optical spectroscopy study on single crystals of Pr$_{0.85}$LaCe$_{0.15}$CuO$_{4-δ}$ (PLCCO) to revisit the electron-hole asymmetry, which has been understood as a fundamental property of cuprates. Four differently annealed samples - as-grown, reduced, optimally oxygenated, and over-oxygenated samples - were prepared, which have superconducting transition temperatures, $T_c$ = 0, 15, 24, and 18 K, respectively. We observed that low-energy quasiparticle spectral weights of all the PLCCO samples are significantly small in comparison with those of other electron-doped cuprate fami…
Occurrence of Fermi Pockets without Pseudogap Hypothesis and Clarification of the Energy Distribution Curves of Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy in Underdoped Cuprate Superconductors
Bulk crystals of electron-doped cuprates with the T'-type structure require both Ce substitutions and reduction annealing for the emergence of superconductivity while the reduction annealing alone can induce superconductivity in thin films of the T'-type cuprates. In order to reveal low-energy electronic states which are responsible for the superconductivity, we have conducted angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements on thin films of the superconducting Ce-free T'-type cuprate Pr$_2$CuO$_4$. The results indicate that the overall band structure and the Fermi surface area of the su…

我们用时间分辨和角分辨光电子能谱测量了$_2$ $_2$ O $_2$的各种掺杂的节非平衡电子态。我们发现,这些ungapped状态的初始泵浦诱导的瞬态信号的强烈影响的超导能隙在$T_c$,超导配对波动在$T_p$,和赝能隙在$T^*$的发病。此外,$T_p$标记了通量依赖性瞬态信号中的一个提示性阈值,出现了低于$T_p$的临界通量,该临界通量对应于使所有库珀对断裂所需的能量。这些结果挑战了铜氧化物超导体中结-反结二分法的概念,在结准粒子和铜氧化物相图之间建立了一个新的联系。

Dependence of Band Renormalization Effect on the Number of Copper-oxide Layers in Tl-based Copper-oxide Superconductor using Angle-resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy
The discovery of infinite-layer nickelate superconductors has spurred enormous interest. While the Ni$^{1+}$ cations possess nominally the same 3$d^9$ configuration as Cu$^{2+}$ in cuprates, the electronic structure variances remain elusive. Here, we present a soft x-ray photoemission spectroscopy study on parent and doped infinite-layer Pr-nickelate thin films with a doped perovskite reference. By identifying the Ni character with resonant photoemission and comparison to density functional theory + U (on-site Coulomb repulsion energy) calculations, we estimate U ~5 eV, smaller than the charge…
