Emergent surface resonance from charge density wave symmetry breaking in TiSe 2

Surface confined electronic states provide a fertile ground for discovering emergent phenomena that have no counterpart in the bulk, offering new routes to manipulate correlations, symmetry breaking, and dimensionality at the atomic scale. Here, in this study, we show that charge density wave (CDW) symmetry breaking can yield surface states in 1⁢T−TiSe 2 . Micro–angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (µ-ARPES) resolves a sharp, two-dimensional surface resonant state (SRS) that emerges within the CDW reconstructed low energy spectrum. The SRS exhibits notable temperature dependence and its spectral weight collapses around ∼ 160 K, while CDW transition temperature 𝑇 CDW is commonly reported as ≈ 202 K. Slab DFT + 𝑈 calculations reproduce a surface localized resonance when CDW folding brings valence and conduction states into near degeneracy, suggesting a correlation tuned, surface selective origin. These results point to a form of correlation-tuned surface resonance in a layered CDW compound and suggest a framework for engineering low-dimensional quantum states in van der Waals materials via symmetry breaking and electronic structure tuning.

Structural modulation, physical properties, and electronic band structure of the kagome metal UCr 6 ⁢Ge 6

The chemical flexibility of the 𝑅⁢𝑀 6 ⁢𝑋 6 stoichiometry, where an 𝑓-block element is intercalated in the CoSn structure type, allows for the tuning of flatbands associated with kagome lattices to the Fermi level and for emergent phenomena due to interactions between the 𝑓- and 𝑑-electron lattices. Yet, 5⁢𝑓 members of the “166” compounds are underrepresented compared with 4⁢𝑓 members. In this work, we report single-crystal growth of UCr 6 ⁢Ge 6 , which crystallizes in a monoclinically distorted Y 0.5⁢ Co 3 ⁢Ge 3 -type structure. The real-space character of the modulation, which is unique within the 𝑅⁢𝑀 6 ⁢𝑋 6 family, is approximated by a 3×1×2 supercell of the average monoclinic cell. The compound has kagome-lattice flatbands near the Fermi level and a moderately enhanced electronic heat capacity, as evidenced by its low-temperature Sommerfeld coefficient (𝛾=86.5 mJ mol −1 K −2 ) paired with band structure calculations. The small, isotropic magnetization and featureless resistivity of UCr 6 ⁢Ge 6 suggest itinerant uranium 5⁢𝑓 electrons and Pauli paramagnetism. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy results provide evidence for uranium 5⁢𝑓 weight at the Fermi level and for a flatband near the Fermi level associated with the chromium 3⁢𝑑 kagome lattice. The isotropic magnetic behavior of the uranium 5⁢𝑓 electrons starkly contrasts with localized behavior in other uranium 166 compounds, highlighting the high tunability of the magnetic ground state across the material family.

Collapsing of spin-split Fermi surfaces in the magnetic Weyl semimetal candidate EuAuSb

EuAuSb is a magnetic Weyl semimetal candidate that exhibits in-plane ferromagnetic ordering and a helical magnetic order across the plane at temperatures below 3.9 K. These magnetic characteristics can drive an interaction-induced reconstruction of the Fermi surface. Here, we report a rare instance of Fermi surface splitting and collapsing driven by exchange coupling, as revealed by strongly temperature-dependent quantum oscillation frequencies in EuAuSb. Shubnikov–de Haas measurements reveal two distinct quantum oscillation frequencies (𝐹 𝛼 = 80 T and 𝐹 𝛽 = 165 T) at 2 K. As the temperature increases toward 40 K, the oscillation peaks at these two frequencies gradually merge into a single peak centered around 128 T. This behavior signifies the collapse of the spin-split Fermi surfaces, driven by the weakening of short-range magnetic correlations and the exchange coupling between conduction electrons and local magnetic moments as temperature increases. Furthermore, our results are further supported by density functional theory calculations, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, and magnetization measurements.

Defect-induced displacement of topological surface state in quantum magnet MnBi2Te4

The topological magnet MnBi2⁢Te4 (MBT), with gapped topological surface state, is an attractive platform for realizing quantum anomalous Hall and axion insulator states. However, the experimentally observed surface state gaps fail to meet theoretical predictions, although the exact mechanism behind the gap suppression has been debated. Recent theoretical studies suggest that intrinsic antisite defects push the topological surface state away from the MBT surface, closing its gap and making it less accessible to scanning probe experiments. Here, we report on the local effect of defects on the MBT surface states and demonstrate that high defect concentrations lead to a displacement of the surface states well into the MBT crystal, validating the theorized mechanism. The local and global influence of antisite defects on the topological surface states are studied with samples of varying defect densities by combining scanning tunneling microscopy, angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, and density functional theory. Our findings identify a combination of increased defect density and reduced defect spacing as the primary factors underlying the displacement of the surface states and suppression of surface gap, guiding further development of topological quantum materials.

Investigating the electrical transport properties and electronic structure of Zr 2 ⁢CuSb 3

The checkerboard lattice has been proposed to host topological flat bands as a result of destructive interference among its various electronic hopping terms. However, it has proven challenging to realize experimentally due to the difficulty of isolating this structure from any significant out-of-plane bonding while maintaining structural integrity. Here, in this study, single crystals of Zr 2 CuSb 3 , a potential candidate for the checkerboard lattice, were synthesized using the solution (self-flux) method, and their structure was confirmed via x-ray diffraction. Electrical-transport measurements indicate metallic behavior with electron-dominated carriers. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy reveals multiple electron pockets and significant k z broadening due to its large c axis and low dispersion features in k z . Density-functional theory (DFT) calculations further disentangle the contributions from each high-symmetry plane, providing a comprehensive characterization of electronic behavior. The DFT calculations were then used to determine the orbital contributions of the bands and detect the out-of-plane bonding which prevented the flat bands from forming.

Revealing the electronic structure of van der Waals antiferromagnetic NiPS 3 through synchrotron-based 𝜇-ARPES and alkali metal dosing

Antiferromagnetic NiPS 3 has recently emerged as a quantum material of considerable interest, thanks to the discovery of multiple new couplings involving electrons, spins, orbitals, phonons, and magnons. However, controversies and open questions persist concerning the fundamental origins of these couplings. A critical piece of information required to advance the understanding is the precise electronic band structure of NiPS 3 . Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), combined with alkali metal dosing (AMD), can enable us to directly observe the subtle electronic states that appear around the Fermi surface, offering valuable insights into the intriguing quantum properties and interplays of the examined material. Here, in this study, we present a comprehensive characterization and analysis of the band structure of van der Waals layered antiferromagnet NiPS 3 , leveraging state-of-the-art μ-ARPES measurements supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Theoretical DFT results identify the orbital contributions to the observed bands, providing a precise understanding of the experimental ARPES data. Crucially, AMD enables the observation of conduction band and defect-related states above the valence band maximum in NiPS 3 . Furthermore, temperature dependent ARPES results across the Néel transition temperature of NiPS 3 reveal that the paramagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases have nearly identical band structures, underlining the highly localized character of Ni d states. These findings substantially deepen our understanding of the electronic properties of NiPS 3 and lay a vital foundation for exploring the intriguing quantum phenomena it exhibits.

Flat band driven itinerant magnetism in the Co-pnictides CaCo 2⁢ As 2 and LaCo 2 ⁢P 2

Flat bands can induce strong electron correlation effects that help stabilize both magnetic and superconducting states. Here, in this study, we carry out angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations to study the electronic structure of the Co-pnictides CaCo 2 ⁢As 2 and LaCo 2 ⁢P 2 . We find that the 𝑘 𝑧 Fermi topology of ferromagnetic LaCo 2 ⁢P 2 is markedly two-dimensional, while the antiferromagnetic CaCo 2 ⁢As 2 develops a 3D Fermi surface described by a zigzaglike band dispersion perpendicular to the Co-As plane. Furthermore, the magnetism is driven by the electronic correlations of the flat bands with 𝑑 𝑥⁢𝑦 and 𝑑 𝑧 2 orbital character at the Fermi level. Our results link the electronic dimensionality and the magnetic order and emphasize the critical role of the As-As and P-P bond strength along the 𝑐 direction to understand the electronic band structure and the rich phase diagram of transition metal pnictides.

Experimental confirmation of the magnetic ordering transition induced by an electronic structure change in the metallic triangular antiferromagnet Co 1/3⁢ TaS 2

We report angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) studies combined with DFT+DMFT calculations to confirm that the magnetic ordering vector transition from Q=(1/2,0,0) to Q=(1/3,0,0) in the metallic triangular antiferromagnets Co 1/3±𝜀⁢ TaS 2 (𝜀 ≈ 0.007) is induced by the electronic structure change in the system. The ARPES-measured Fermi surface (FS) maps of Co 0.325 ⁢TaS 2 show two hexagonal and one circular holelike FSs around Γ, which matches well with the triple- Q state by taking into account the contribution of nesting vectors occurring between Co 3⁢𝑑 and Ta 5⁢𝑑 orbitals. In the case of Co 0.340 ⁢TaS 2 , a new electron pocket around K appears, and the FS geometry changes as a result of the correlation effect of Co 4 ⁢S 18 tripods forming in the system. The magnetic susceptibility calculations based on the charge-self-consistent DFT+DMFT band structures and the random phase approximation indicate that the most stable magnetic ordering vector (1/2,0,0) split into (1/6,0,0) and (1/2,0,0), which is consistent with the magnetic phase transition around 𝑥=1/3 in Co 𝑥 ⁢TaS 2 .

Hund's coupling governed orbital-selective superconductivity in Ba 1−𝑥 ⁢K 𝑥⁢ Fe 2 ⁢As 2

Understanding how strong electronic correlations shape superconductivity remains a central challenge in quantum materials. In multiorbital systems, correlations driven by Hund's coupling can differentiate the behavior of individual orbitals, producing the so-called Hund's metal state. How such orbital-selectivity also governs superconducting pairing, however, has remained largely unexplored experimentally. Here, in this study, we use high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to systematically map the superconducting gap structure across the phase diagram of the representative iron-based superconductor Ba 1−x K x Fe 2 As 2 . We find that superconductivity evolves in a strongly orbital-dependent manner: the gap associated with the d xy orbital collapses beyond optimal doping while pairing on the d xz /d yz orbitals persists. This behavior mirrors the orbital-selective correlations observed in the normal state and reveals a direct connection between Hund's metal physics and the superconducting pairing landscape. Our results demonstrate that superconducting gaps themselves can serve as a sensitive probe of orbital-dependent correlations and suggest that Hund's coupling plays a central role in shaping pairing in multiorbital superconductors.

Diverse electronic topography in a distorted kagome metal LaTi 3 ⁢Bi 4

Recent reports on a family of kagome metals of the form 𝐿⁢𝑛⁢Ti 3 ⁢Bi 4 (𝐿⁢𝑛 = Lanthanide) have stoked interest due to the combination of highly anisotropic magnetism and a rich electronic structure. The electronic structure near the Fermi level is proposed to exhibit Dirac points and van Hove singularities (VHSs). Here, in this manuscript, we use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements in combination with density functional theory calculations to investigate the electronic structure of an interesting kagome metal LaTi 3 ⁢Bi 4 . Our results reveal multiple VHSs with one VHS located in the vicinity of the Fermi level. We clearly observe two flat bands, which originate from the destructive interference of wave functions within the Ti kagome motif. These flat bands and VHSs originate from Ti 𝑑 orbitals and are very responsive to the polarization of the incident beam. We notice a significant anisotropy in the electronic structure, resulting from the breaking of sixfold rotational symmetry in this material. Our findings demonstrate this member of Ti based kagome materials as a promising platform to explore novel emerging phenomena in the wider 𝐿⁢𝑛⁢Ti 3⁢ Bi 4 (𝐿⁢𝑛 = lanthanide) family.

Uniaxial stress effect on the electronic structure of quantum materials

Uniaxial stress has proven to be a powerful experimental tuning parameter for effectively controlling lattice, charge, orbital, and spin degrees of freedom in quantum materials. In addition, its ability to manipulate the symmetry of materials has garnered significant attention. Recent technical progress to combine uniaxial stress cells with quantum oscillation and angle-resolved photoemission techniques allowed to study the electronic structure as function of uniaxial stress. This review provides an overview on experimental advancements in methods and examines studies on diverse quantum materials, encompassing the semimetal WTe2, the unconventional superconductor Sr2RuO4, Fe-based superconductors, and topological materials.

Measuring the Debye energy in superconductors via two-electron photoemission spectroscopy

In this work, we demonstrate theoretically that double angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (2eARPES) can directly probe the existence of Cooper pairs away from the Fermi surface, and can thus provide insight into the characteristic energy scale around the Fermi surface, the Debye energy, in which electrons are bound into Cooper pairs. To this end, we compute the photoelectron counting rate 𝑃 (2) in two different types of unconventional superconductors, a 𝑑 𝑥 2 −𝑦 2 -wave superconductor, and a topological superconductor with a broken time-reversal symmetry. We show that 𝑃 (2) provides insight into the relative strength of intra- and interband pairing in multiband systems, as well as into the spin polarization of the bands.

Interplay of Kondo physics with incommensurate charge density waves in CeTe 3

CeTe 3 is a 2-dimensional (2D) Van der Waals (VdW) material with incommensurate charge density waves (CDW), extremely high transition temperature (T CDW ), and a large momentum-dependent CDW gap that leaves a significant portion of the Fermi surface intact. It is also considered to be a weak Kondo system, a property unexpected for a material with incommensurate CDW, where each atomic site is slightly different. Here, we study the properties of the CDW state in several RTe3 (R is rare earth) materials and examine the hybridization of itinerant states with the localized Ce 4f multiplet in CeTe 3 by using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We find that the renormalization of the itinerant states originating from the hybridization with the deeper localized 4f states at −260 meV is k−dependent and extends to the Fermi level. As these localized states are far from the Fermi level, the observed hybridization affects the effective masses only marginally and does not lead to heavy fermions. However, since the same renormalizing mechanism normally leads to the heavy fermion physics when the localized 4f states are near the Fermi level, our observation of its strong k−dependence suggests that this could be the reason for discrepancy between the heavy masses in specific heat and light ones in Shubnikov de Haas oscillations, often observed in heavy fermions.

Spin-Valley Locking in 2 H -TaS 2 and Its Co-Intercalated Counterpart: Roles of Surface Domains and Co Intercalation

Tuning and probing spin-valley coupling is key to understanding correlated ground states in 2H-TaS 2 . Its magnetically intercalated analogue, Co 1/3 TaS 2 , introduces additional degrees of freedom, including modified interlayer coupling and magnetism, to modulate spin-valley physics. Surface-sensitive probes like ARPES are essential for accessing surface spin texture, yet previous studies on 2H-TMDs have reported conflicting results regarding spin-polarized bands, leaving open whether these discrepancies are intrinsic or extrinsic. Here, in this study, we performed spatially resolved spin-ARPES measurements on 2H-TaS 2 and Co 1/3 TaS 2 . Our results reveal robust spin-valley locking on both compounds. Importantly, Co intercalation enhances interlayer hybridization and introduces magnetism while preserving the TaS 2 -derived spin texture. We further observe a spatial reversal of the out-of-plane spin polarization, which we attribute to different surface domains. This effect complicates quantifying spin textures and may underlie prior inconsistent observations. Our findings provide microscopic insight into how interlayer interactions and surface domains together govern spin-valley phenomena in layered TMDs.

Data for "Gold-Induced Chemical Perturbations in CdTe-Based Photovoltaic Cells"

Back contacting p-type CdTe has been identified as one of the major areas of loss in CdTe photovoltaic (PV) power conversion efficiency (PCE). In research settings, Au is a common contact material due to its ease of use and decent performance. This work provides a detailed investigation into using gold for back contacting As-doped, CdCl2 treated, polycrystalline CdTe that has been exposed to air after absorber processing, another routine practice. First, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS) is used to determine the native oxide to be 1.6 nm of CdTeO3 using a combination of angle-resolved XPS and the cadmium modified Auger parameter. During gold metallization of CdTe, oxygen and oxidized tellurium are eliminated from the thin CdTeO3 native oxide. The fate of the released oxygen and possibly cadmium and tellurium are not known, but these reaction byproducts can enter the absorber bulk or grain boundaries, stay at the interface, or dissolve in the Au. Interfacial hole barriers between CdTe and Au are measured for samples with and without the native oxide present prior to metallization. Results show that the thin CdTeO3 alleviates the downward band bending by 40 meV from 470 meV to 430 meV even though it is consumed during interface formation. The implications of these chemical reactions on the device are assessed through photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy which shows losses in internal open circuit voltage (iVoc) from 820 meV to 795 meV, carrier lifetime from 123 ns to 45 ns, and PL quantum yield from 2.9x10-5 to 1.2x10-5. Modeling time-resolved PL lifetimes demonstrates the back surface recombination velocity due to metallization reduces minority carrier lifetimes. These results identify the native oxide and show that it plays an important role in mediating downward band bending along with how the back interface reaction can negatively impact device-scale parameters and reduce PV PCE.

Probing the Fine Symmetry Breaking in High-Temperature Superconductor Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+δ with Angle-Resolved Nonreciprocal Transport

After decades of research, symmetry breaking in high-temperature cuprate superconductors remains a key issue to resolve and is relevant to understanding their exotic quantum phases. In the prototypical cuprate superconductor, Bi 2 Sr 2 CaCu 2 O 8+δ (Bi2212), the possible symmetry breaking has been mostly examined microscopically with scanning tunneling microscopy and photoemission spectroscopy. However, macroscopic evidence and the direct implications for electronic transport have remained elusive. Using superconductivity-enhanced nonreciprocal transport, we report macroscopic evidence of inversion symmetry breaking in Bi2212. While the inversion symmetry breaking is subtle, its effect on nonreciprocal transport is significantly enhanced by the vortex motion during the superconducting transition, leading to a robust manifestation of inversion symmetry breaking in macroscopic transport. Combining angle-resolved nonreciprocal transport and 3D tight-binding model calculations, we derive that the inversion symmetry breaking is due to subtle crystal distortions that give rise to both in-plane and out-of-plane polar axes. Our work not only establishes nonreciprocal transport as a sensitive macroscopic probe to provide electrical transport-based evidence of fine symmetry breaking in Bi2212, but also paves the way for novel device applications such as high-temperature superconducting diodes and superconducting spintronics.
