摘要:

本文用角分辨光电子能谱研究了钴磷族化合物ACo_2As_2(A=Ba,Sr,Ca或Sr和Ca的混合物)的三维电子结构。这些化合物与Fe基超导体是同构的,但在Co $3d$轨道上多了一个电子。从Ba到Ca,它们变得越来越三维,最终形成“塌陷”的四相,其中CoA层之间的距离显着减少。观察到的3D电子结构的周期性在每种情况下都与从块体中平面之间的距离所预期的相匹配。然而,电子结构是更好地拟合由对应于一个平板的计算与2个CoA层比散装结构。我们将此归因于ARPES测量中表面处的3D色散的截断引起的2D电子结构的微妙修改。我们进一步研究这如何影响电子性质。我们发现,尽管这种扭曲,CaCo 2As 2的电子结构基本上是预期的崩溃阶段。电子关联产生的电子结构的重正化的一个因素1.4,这是不受影响的过渡到崩溃状态。另一方面,费米能级的小位移降低了eg带中的态密度,并抑制了CaCo 2As 2中预期的磁性转变。我们的研究表明,观察到的批量周期性是不足以确保批量灵敏度。它进一步提供了直接的信息,三维相互作用的作用,主要是由Co-As杂化,eg和t2 g轨道之间。这也有助于更好地理解铁超导体的电子结构和ARPES测量的有效范围。

英文摘要:

We use angle-resolved photoemission to study the three dimensional (3D) electronic structure of Co pnictides ACo2As2 with A=Ba, Sr, Ca or a mixture of Sr and Ca. These compounds are isostructural to Fe based superconductors, but have one more electron in the Co $3d$ orbitals. Going from Ba to Ca, they become more and more 3D, eventually forming a 'collapsed' tetragonal phase, where the distance between CoAs layers is markedly reduced. The observed periodicity of the 3D electronic structure matches in each case that expected from the distance between the planes in the bulk. However, the electronic structure is better fitted by a calculation corresponding to a slab with 2 CoAs layers than to the bulk structure. We attribute this to subtle modifications of the 2D electronic structure induced by the truncation of the 3D dispersion at the surface in the ARPES measurement. We further study how this affects the electronic properties. We show that, despite this distortion, the electronic structure of CaCo2As2 is essentially that expected for a collapsed phase. Electronic correlations produce a renormalization of the electronic structure by a factor 1.4, which is not affected by the transition to the collapsed state. On the other hand, a small shift of the Fermi level reduces the density of states in the eg bands and suppresses the magnetic transition expected in CaCo2As2. Our study evidences that observing the bulk periodicity is not sufficient to ensure bulk sensitivity. It further gives direct information on the role of 3D interactions, mostly governed by Co-As hybridization, among eg and t2g orbitals. It is also useful to better understand the electronic structure of Fe superconductors and the range of validity of ARPES measurements.
