Novel x-ray spectroscopies such as high-resolution x-ray absorption (XAS) performed in the partial fluorescence yield mode (PFY), and resonant emission (RXES) offer new opportunities to probe the bulk electronic configuration in strongly correlated systems ...
High-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) on the quasi-one-dimensional Peierls system K0.3MoO3 reveals a "hidden" open Fermi surface and band features displaying the symmetry properties of the underlying lattice. However, the ARPES ...
We analyze the transport through a narrow ballistic superconductor–normal-metal–superconductor Josephson contact with nonideal transmission at the superconductor–normal-metal interfaces, e.g., due to insulating layers, effective mass steps, or band misfits ...
Combined optical and photoemission experiments on the quasi-one dimensional Bechgaard salts reveal the non-Fermi liquid character of these prototype quasi-one dimensional interacting electron systems. We show that various aspects of the exotic normal state ...
Intermediate valence is one of the typical phenomena of systems with strong electronic correlation. The Anderson impurity model predicts a scaling of the valence with the reduced temperature T/T-K, which is difficult to observe by traditional surface-sensi ...
Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) yields clear evidence of spectroscopic Kondo scales in heavy fermions. In YbInCu4 and YbAgCu4 RIXS probes the Yb2+ component of the hybrid ground state and the temperature dependence of the Yb 4f occupation. We re ...
We present experimental studies of the magnetization of electrons in semiconductorquantum dots. Starting from a modulation-doped AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure an array of dots was patterned by laser-interference lithography and deep mesa etching. The quantum ...
We use a pulsed laser deposition (PLD) setup to grow ultra-thin films of high temperature superconductors (HTSC) and transfer them in-situ into a photoemission chamber. Photoemission measurements on such films allow us to study noncleavable materials, but ...
New temperature-dependent angle resolved photoemission (ARPES) data on the quasi-one-dimensional Peierls compound (TaSe4)(2)I suggest a new interpretation of the spectral lineshapes, which removes discrepancies with the transport and thermodynamic results. ...
Angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) on the quasi-one-dimensional conductor (TaSe4)(2)I shows a hidden Fermi-surface crossing in its metallic state and the opening of a Peierls gap at low temperatures, The underlying quasiparticles have vanishing spectral ...
