We report the observation by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements of a highly anisotropic Dirac-cone structure in high quality SrMnBi2 crystals. We reveal a well-defined sharp quasi-particle, linearly dispersive with $v_{F_1}/v_{F_2
}sim$ 5--6, forming a hole-like anisotropic Dirac-cone. The density of states for the cone remains linear up to as high as ~650 meV of binding energy. The scattering rate of the quasi-particle (QP) increases linearly as function of binding energy, indicating a non-Fermi-Liquid behavior. Our results suggest the existence of a dilute two-dimensional electron gas system in this three-dimensional material.
We report a comprehensive angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study of the tridimensional electronic bands in the recently discovered Fe selenide superconductor (Tl,Rb)$_y$Fe$_{2-x}$Se$_2$ ($T_c=32$ K). We determined the orbital characters and
the $k_z$ dependence of the low energy electronic structure by tuning the polarization and the energy of the incident photons. We observed a small 3D electron Fermi surface pocket near the Brillouin zone center and a 2D like electron Fermi surface pocket near the zone boundary. The photon energy dependence, the polarization analysis and the local-density approximation calculations suggest a significant contribution from the Se 4$p_z$ and Fe 3$d_{xy}$ orbitals to the small electron pocket. We argue that the emergence of Se 4$p_z$ states might be the cause of the different magnetic properties between Fe chalcogenides and Fe pnictides.
We have performed high resolution angle-resolved photoemission measurements on superconducting electron-doped NaFe$_{0.95}$Co$_{0.05}$As ($T_{c}sim$18 K). We observed a hole-like Fermi surface around the zone center and two electron-like Fermi surfac
es around the M point which can be connected by the $Q=(pi, pi)$ wavevector, suggesting that scattering over the near-nested Fermi surfaces is important to the superconductivity of this 111 pnicitide. Nearly isotropic superconducting gaps with sharp coherent peaks are observed below $T_c$ on all three Fermi surfaces. Upon increasing temperature through $T_c$, the gap size shows little change while the coherence vanishes. Large ratios of $2Delta/k_{B}T_{c}sim8$ are observed for all the bands, indicating a strong coupling in this system. These results are not expected from a classical phonon-mediated pairing mechanism.
