BROKEN-SYMMETRY STATES AT SURFACES: THE (tr)ARPES VIEW

We discuss recent high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) and time-resolved ARPES experiments on selected surfaces which illustrate the formation of broken-symmetry ground states of very different nature: i) a Mott insulator in the layered dic ...

Femtosecond dynamics of electronic states in the Mott insulator 1T-TaS2 by time resolved photoelectron spectroscopy

Helmuth Berger, Matthias Wolf, Luca Perfetti

Photoexcitation of the Mott insulator 1T-TaS2 by an intense laser pulse leads to an ultrafast transition toward a gapless phase. Besides the collapse of the electronic gap, the sudden excitation of the charge density wave (CDW) mode results in periodic osc ...

Photoemission as a probe of coexisting and conflicting periodicities in low-dimensional solids

Marco Grioni, Helmuth Berger, Christian Reinhard Ast, Luca Perfetti, Daniela Pacilè

When two different periodic potentials are present at the same time in a solid, the electron wavefunctions must conform to the resulting overall periodicity. It is the case of the broken-symmetry phases which are often observed in low-dimensional systems. ...

Unexpected periodicity in the quasi-two-dimensional Mott insulator 1T-TaS2 revealed by angle-resolved photoemission

Marco Grioni, Frédéric Mila, Helmuth Berger, Luca Perfetti, Thomas Gloor

High-resolution angle-resolved photoemission data from the insulating phase of the charge-density-wave (CDW) material 1T-TaS2 reveal the backfolding of the electronic bands associated with the CDW superlattice, but also an additional, unexpected periodicit ...

Mott phase at the surface of 1T-TaSe2 observed by scanning tunneling microscopy

Marco Grioni, Helmuth Berger, Luca Perfetti

In this Letter we report the observation, by scanning tunneling microscopy, of a Mott metal to insulator transition at the surface of 1T-TaSe2. Our spectroscopic data compare considerably well with previous angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measure ...
