近藤系统中光电子能谱与光谱函数的不一致性

Inconsistency of the photoemission spectrum with the spectral function in Kondo systems

S. Patil, A. Generalov, A. Omar

摘要:

近藤效应是渐近自由的一个例子,其中局域磁矩和价电子之间的反铁磁耦合随着温度的降低而增加。这样的系统的电子光谱函数预测一个狭窄的近藤共振接近费米能量低于其近藤温度'TK'。局域磁矩的内能结构在近藤共振附近引入边带,每个边带的相应近藤温度随着边带位置向更高的结合能移动而增加。因此,共振特征的温度依赖性随着我们朝向更高的结合能而变得更弱。在这里,我们显示了Ce4f的光电发射光谱的演变,从一个原型近藤系统CeAl2,离开的光谱函数的预测。我们的测量揭示了一个统一的温度依赖性的所有良好的筛选Ce4f光电发射功能(4f1最终状态),这通常被解释为共振功能,因为我们降低温度,这表明4f1最终状态功能的共振解释是不合适的。相反,光谱演变简单地解释了Ce4f和价电子之间的耦合强度的温度依赖性,它保持均匀的范围内的4f1最终状态的功能。作为一个可能的解释所观察到的光谱演化,我们提出的近藤单重波函数的光电子动能测量时,类似于波函数崩溃的现象进行测量时观察到的纠缠EPR(爱因斯坦,波多尔斯基,罗森)对。我们的建议强调了研究单粒子性质的实验,当在量子系统上进行时,给出了关于系统多体物理的不完整信息。

英文摘要:

Kondo effect is an example of asymptotic freedom where the antiferromagnetic coupling between a localized magnetic moment and valence electrons, increases with reducing temperature. The electronic spectral function for such a system predicts a narrow Kondo resonance close to Fermi energy below its Kondo temperature 'TK'. The internal energy level structure of the localized magnetic moment introduces sidebands near the Kondo resonance, each with its respective Kondo temperature increasing as the sideband position moves towards higher binding energies. Consequently, the temperature dependence of the resonance features becomes weaker as we go towards higher binding energies. Here, we show a Ce4f photoemission spectral evolution obtained from a prototypical Kondo system CeAl2, departing from the predictions of the spectral function. Our measurements reveal a uniform temperature dependence for all the well screened Ce4f photoemission features (4f1 final state), which are usually interpreted as resonance features, as we reduce the temperature suggesting that the resonance interpretation for the 4f1 final state features is not appropriate. Instead, the spectral evolution is explained simply by the temperature dependence of the strength of the coupling between Ce4f and valence electrons, which remains uniform over the range of 4f1 final state features. As a possible explanation to the observed spectral evolution, we propose the phenomenon of collapse of the Kondo singlet wave function upon photoelectron kinetic energy measurement, analogous to the wave function collapse observed upon measurements performed on an entangled EPR (Einstein, Podolsky, Rosen) pair. Our proposal highlights how experiments studying single particle properties, when performed on a quantum system, give incomplete information about the many-body physics of the system.
