Electronic structure and lattice dynamics of 1T-VSe2:Origin of the three-dimensional charge density wave

To characterize in detail the charge density wave (CDW) transition of 1T-VSe2, its electronic structure and lattice dynamics are comprehensively studied by means of x-ray diffraction, muon spectroscopy, angle resolved photoemission (ARPES), diffuse and ine ...

Field-induced ultrafast modulation of Rashba coupling at room temperature in ferroelectric alpha-GeTe(111)

Jan Hugo Dil

Rashba materials have appeared as an ideal playground for spin-to-charge conversion in prototype spintronics devices. Among them, alpha-GeTe(111) is a non-centrosymmetric ferroelectric semiconductor for which a strong spin-orbit interaction gives rise to g ...

Hidden bulk and surface effects in the spin polarization of the nodal-line semimetal ZrSiTe

Marco Grioni, Arnaud Magrez, Oleg Yazyev, Daniel Gosalbez Martinez, Helmuth Berger, Alberto Crepaldi, Mauro Fanciulli, Gianmarco Gatti, Silvan Dino Marcos Roth

Local inversion symmetry breaking in centrosymmetric materials can lead to large spin polarization of the electronic band structure in separate sectors of the unit cell. Here, the authors reveal such hidden spin polarisation in ZrSiTe using spin and angle ...

Proximity-Induced Novel Ferromagnetism Accompanied with Resolute Metallicity in NdNiO3 Heterostructure

Joël Mesot, Zoran Ristic, Marco Caputo, Zheng Wang, Anna Zakharova

Employing X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD), angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), and momentum-resolved density fluctuation (MRDF) theory, the magnetic and electronic properties of ultrathin NdNiO3 (NNO) film in proximity to ferromagne ...

Probing the reconstructed Fermi surface of antiferromagnetic BaFe2As2 in one domain

Timur Kim

A fundamental part of the puzzle of unconventional superconductivity in the Fe-based superconductors is the understanding of the magnetic and nematic instabilities of the parent compounds. The issues of which of these can be considered the leading instabil ...

Ab-initio calculation of surface phonons at the Sb2Te3(111) surface

Davide Campi

Density functional perturbation theory is used to study the phonon dispersion relations at the (111) surface of the topological insulator Sb2Te3. Inelastic Helium atom scattering experiments at the (111) surface of the similar Bi2Se3 topological insulator ...

Spin Polarization and Attosecond Time Delay in Photoemission from Spin Degenerate States of Solids

Jan Hugo Dil, Stefan Peter Muff, Mauro Fanciulli

After photon absorption, electrons from a dispersive band of a solid require a finite time in the photoemission process before being photoemitted as free particles, in line with recent attosecond-resolved photoemission experiments. According to the Eisenbu ...

Spin-resolved band structure of a densely packed Pb monolayer on Si(111)

Jan Hugo Dil, Stefan Peter Muff, Mauro Fanciulli

Monolayer structures of Pb on Si(111) attracted recently considerable interest as superconductivity was found in these truly two-dimensional (2D) structures. In this study, we analyzed the electronic surface band structure of the so-called striped incommen ...

Spin polarization in photoemission from the cuprate superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta

Jan Hugo Dil, Stefan Peter Muff, Mauro Fanciulli, Andrew Patton Weber

Photoelectrons produced from the excitation of spin-degenerate states in solids can have a sizable spin polarization, which is related to the phase of interfering channels in the photoemission matrix elements. Such spin polarization can be measured by spin ...

Spectroscopic Studies of the Electronic Structure in Layered Cuprates and Ruthenates

Claudia Giuseppina Fatuzzo

In materials where electrons interact strongly, a number of exotic and exciting phenomena arise. The mechanisms at the base of many of these phenomena remain debated, as strongly correlated electron physics represents one of the biggest challenges for mode ...
