In my thesis work I have concentrated on the growth and the in-depth analysis of high temperature superconducting thin films with the central aim to elucidate their electronic properties, predominantly by in-situ angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy ( ...
The spectroscopy of quasi-one-dimensional (1D) systems has been a subject of strong interest since the first experimental observations of unusual line shapes in the early 1990s. Angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) measurements performed with increasing ac ...
This thesis is devoted to a theoretical study of high-temperature superconductivity from the viewpoint of a doped Mott insulator. To this end, the square-lattice t-J model is analyzed by variational and mean-field approaches. The thesis focuses on the cons ...
Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy we demonstrate that a normal-state pseudogap exists above TN-IC in one of the most studied two-dimensional charge-density wave (CDW) dichalcogenides 2H-TaSe2. The initial formation of the incommensurate CDW i ...
We present wannier90, a program for calculating maximally-localised Wannier functions (MLWF) from a set of Bloch energy bands that may or may not be attached to or mixed with other bands. The formalism works by minimising the total spread of the MLWF in re ...
We report an angle-resolved photoemission study of the electronic structure of the pseudogap state in La1.48Nd0.4Sr0.12CuO4 (T-c < 7 K). Two opposite dispersing Fermi arcs are the main result of this study. Several scenarios that can explain this observati ...

We have observed the wavevector quantization in LaSrCuO films thinner than 12 unit cells grown on SrTiO3 substrates. Low energy dispersions were determined in situ for different photon energies by angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy. From the wavevec ...
A remarkable feature of layered transition-metal oxides-most famously, the high-temperature superconductors-is that they can display hugely anisotropic electrical and optical properties (for example, seeming to be insulating perpendicular to the layers and ...
Using high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy we have studied the momentum and photon energy dependence of the anomalous high-energy dispersion, termed waterfalls, between the Fermi level and 1 eV binding energy in several high-T-c superc ...
