From hidden order to antiferromagnetism: Electronic structure changes in Fe-doped URu2Si2

Emmanouil Frantzeskakis, Ji Dai, Kevin Huang

In matter, any spontaneous symmetry breaking induces a phase transition characterized by an order parameter, such as the magnetization vector in ferromagnets, or a macroscopic many electron wave function in superconductors. Phase transitions with unknown o ...

Experimental Observation and Spin Texture of Dirac Node Arcs in Tetradymite Topological Metals

Emmanouil Frantzeskakis, Ji Dai

We report the observation of a nontrivial spin texture in Dirac node arcs, i.e., novel topological objects formed when Dirac cones of massless particles extend along an open one-dimensional line in momentum space. We find that such states are present in al ...

Quantum interference effects of out-of-plane confinement on two-dimensional electron systems in oxides

Emmanouil Frantzeskakis, Ji Dai

It was recently discovered that a conductive, metallic state is formed on the surface of some insulating oxides. First observed on SrTiO3 (001), it was then found in other compounds as diverse as anatase TiO2, KTaO3, BaTiO3, ZnO, and also on different surf ...

Polarization dependence of angle-resolved photoemission with submicron spatial resolution reveals emerging one-dimensionality of electrons in NbSe3

Marco Grioni, Helmuth Berger, Emmanouil Frantzeskakis, Miguel Angel Valbuena

In materials with nearly commensurate band filling the electron liquid may spontaneously separate into components with distinct properties, yielding complex intra- and interunit cell ordering patterns and a reduced dimensionality. Polarization-dependent an ...

SmB6 electron-phonon coupling constant from time- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy

Alberto Crepaldi, Emmanouil Frantzeskakis

SmB6 is a mixed valence Kondo system resulting from the hybridization between localized f electrons and delocalized d electrons. We have investigated its out-of-equilibrium electron dynamics by means of time- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. ...

Combined ARPES and STM study of Pb/Au(111) Moiré structure: One overlayer, two symmetries

Klaus Kern, Harald Brune, Marco Grioni, Alberto Crepaldi, Markus Etzkorn, Emmanouil Frantzeskakis

The structural and electronic properties of a Pb monolayer (ML) grown on Au(111) are investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES). We find an incommensurate Moire structure with an approximate (5 ...

Two Distinct Phases of Bilayer Graphene Films on Ru(0001)

Harald Brune, Marco Grioni, Stefano Rusponi, Donat Fabian Natterer, Emmanouil Frantzeskakis, Anne Lehnert, Daniela Pacilè, Quentin Dubout

By combining angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy we reveal the structural and electronic properties of multilayer graphene on Ru(0001). We prove that large ethylene exposure allows the synthesis of two distinct phase ...

Anisotropic spin gaps in BiAg2-Ag/Si(111)

Klaus Kern, Marco Grioni, Alberto Crepaldi, Emmanouil Frantzeskakis

We present a detailed analysis of the band structure of the root 3 x root 3 R 30 degrees BiAg2/Ag/Si(111) trilayer system by means of high resolution Angle Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy (ARPES). BiAg2/Ag/Si(111) exhibits a complex spin-polarized elec ...

Anisotropy effects on Rashba and topological insulator spin-polarized surface states: A unified phenomenological description

Marco Grioni, Emmanouil Frantzeskakis

Spin-polarized two-dimensional electronic states have been observed in metallic surface alloys with giant Rashba splitting and at the surface of topological insulators. We study the surface band structure of these systems, in a unified manner, by exploitin ...

Spectroscopic Studies on Semiconducting Interfaces with Giant Spin Splitting

Emmanouil Frantzeskakis

The application of an external magnetic field can lift the spin degeneracy of electronic states through its interaction with the electronic magnetic moment. A closely-related phenomenon is the Rashba-Bychkov (RB) effect where symmetry breaking at surfaces ...
