摘要:

实验证实,Cr(001)表面在费米能级附近呈现出尖锐的共振。然而,关于它的物理起源没有共识。它被认为是由于电子-声子耦合重整化的单粒子dz 2表面态或涉及简并dxz/dyz态的轨道近藤效应。本文采用密度泛函微扰理论的从头计算方法研究了Cr(001)表面的电子-声子耦合。更准确地说,电子-声子质量增强因子的表面层的3d状态的调查。对于大多数和少数自旋dz 2表面状态,我们发现值为0.19和0.16。我们表明,这些计算的电子-声子质量增强因子是不符合的实验数据,即使我们使用的温度范围和表面德拜频率的拟合的实验数据的现实值。更准确地说,实验上得到的电子-声子质量增强因子为0.70~0.10,这与我们的计算值0.19和0.16不一致。因此,我们得出结论,实验观察到的共振在Cr(001)-表面不是由于极化效应,但由于电子-电子相关效应。

英文摘要:

It is experimentally well established that the Cr(001)-surface exhibits a sharp resonance around the Fermi level. However, there is no consensus about its physical origin. It is proposed to be either due to a single particle dz2 surface state renormalised by electron-phonon coupling or the orbital Kondo effect involving the degenerate dxz/dyz states. In this work we examine the electron-phonon coupling of the Cr(001)-surface by means of ab-initio calculations in the form of density functional perturbation theory. More precisely, the electron-phonon mass-enhancement factor of the surface layer is investigated for the 3d states. For the majority and minority spin dz2 surface states we find values of 0.19 and 0.16. We show that these calculated electron-phonon mass-enhancement factors are not in agreement with the experimental data even if we use realistic values for the temperature range and surface Debye frequency for the fit of the experimental data. More precisely, then experimentally an electron-phonon mass-enhancement factor of 0.70~0.10 is obtained, which is not in agreement with our calculated values of 0.19 and 0.16. Therefore, we conclude that the experimentally observed resonance at the Cr(001)-surface is not due to polaronic effects, but due to electron-electron correlation effects.
