Classification of the symmetry of photoelectron dichroism broken by light
英文摘要：
We investigate how the direction of polarized light can affect the dichroism pattern seen in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. To this end, we prepared a sample composed of highly-oriented Bi(111) micro-crystals that macroscopically has infinite rotational and mirror symmetry of the point group $\rm{C}_{\infty\rm{v}}$ and examined whether the dichroism pattern retains the $\rm{C}_{\infty\rm{v}}$ symmetry under the stationary configuration of the light and sample. The direction of the light was imprinted in the pattern. Thereby, we apply group theory and classify the pattern with the configuration of light taken into account. We complete the classification by discussing the cases when the out-of-plane component of the polarization can be neglected, when the incidence angle is either 0$^{\circ}$ or 90$^{\circ}$, when the polarization is either elliptic or linear, and also when the sample is a crystal.
