We investigate the normal state of the 11 iron-based superconductor FeSe0.42Te0.58 by angle resolved photoemission. Our data reveal a highly renormalized quasiparticle dispersion characteristic of a strongly correlated metal. We find sheet dependent effective carrier masses between ~ 3 - 16 m_e corresponding to a mass enhancement over band structure values of m*/m_band ~ 6 - 20. This is nearly an order of magnitude higher than the renormalization reported previously for iron-arsenide superconductors of the 1111 and 122 families but fully consistent with the bulk specific heat.

Recently, intensive studies have revealed fascinating physics, such as charge density wave and superconducting states, in the newly synthesized kagome-lattice materials $A$V$_3$Sb$_5$ ($A$=K, Rb, Cs). Despite the rapid progress, fundamental aspects l
ike the magnetic properties and electronic correlations in these materials have not been clearly understood yet. Here, based on the density functional theory plus the single-site dynamical mean-field theory calculations, we investigate the correlated electronic structure and the magnetic properties of the KV$_3$Sb$_5$ family materials in the normal state. We show that these materials are good metals with weak local correlations. The obtained Pauli-like paramagnetism and the absence of local moments are consistent with recent experiment. We reveal that the band crossings around the Fermi level form three groups of nodal lines protected by the spacetime inversion symmetry, each carrying a quantized $pi$ Berry phase. Our result suggests that the local correlation strength in these materials appears to be too weak to generate unconventional superconductivity, and non-local electronic correlation might be crucial in this kagome system.
Interactions between electrons in solids are often behind exciting novel effects such as ferromagnetism, antiferromagnetism and superconductivity. All these phenomena break away from the single-electron picture, instead having to take into account th
e collective, correlated behaviour of the system as a whole. In this chapter we look at how tunnelling spectroscopy can be used as the experimental tool of choice for probing correlation and interaction effects in one-dimensional (1D) electron systems. We start by introducing the Tomonaga-Luttinger Liquid (TLL) model, showing how it marks a clear departure from Fermi-liquid theory. We then present some early experimental results obtained using tunnelling devices and how they contributed to the decisive observation of both spin-charge separation and power-law behaviour. Other experimental techniques, such as photoemission and transport measurements, are also discussed. In the second half of the chapter we introduce two nonlinear models that are counterparts to the TLL theory, known as the mobile-impurity and the mode-hierarchy pictures, and present some of the most recent experimental evidence in support of both.
We report the observation of an unusual behavior of highly extended 5d electrons in Y2Ir2O7 belonging to pyrochlore family of great current interest using high resolution photoemission spectroscopy. The experimental bulk spectra reveal an intense low
er Hubbard band in addition to weak intensities in the vicinity of the Fermi level, e_F. This provides a direct evidence for strong electron correlation among the 5d electrons, despite their highly extended nature. The high resolution spectrum at room temperature exhibits a pseudogap at e_F and |e - e_F|^2 dependence demonstrating the importance of electron correlation in this system. Remarkably, in the magnetically ordered phase (T < 150 K), the spectral lineshape evolves to a |e - e_F|^1.5 dependence emphasizing the dominant role of electron-magnon coupling.
We elucidate the effects of defect disorder and $e$-$e$ interaction on the spectral density of the defect states emerging in the Mott-Hubbard gap of doped transition-metal oxides, such as Y$_{1-x}$Ca$_{x}$VO$_{3}$. A soft gap of kinetic origin develo
ps in the defect band and survives defect disorder for $e$-$e$ interaction strengths comparable to the defect potential and hopping integral values above a doping dependent threshold, otherwise only a pseudogap persists. These two regimes naturally emerge in the statistical distribution of gaps among different defect realizations, which turns out to be of Weibull type. Its shape parameter $k$ determines the exponent of the power-law dependence of the density of states at the chemical potential ($k-1$) and hence distinguishes between the soft gap ($kgeq2$) and the pseudogap ($k<2$) regimes. Both $k$ and the effective gap scale with the hopping integral and the $e$-$e$ interaction in a wide doping range. The motion of doped holes is confined by the closest defect potential and the overall spin-orbital structure. Such a generic behavior leads to complex non-hydrogen-like defect states that tend to preserve the underlying $C$-type spin and $G$-type orbital order and can be detected and analyzed via scanning tunneling microscopy.
Recent studies exposed many remarkable properties of layered cobaltates NaxCoO2. Surprisingly, many-body effects have been found to increase at sodium-rich compositions of NaxCoO2 where one expects a simple, nearly free motion of the dilute S=1/2 hol
es doped into a band insulator NaCoO2. Here we discuss the origin of enigmatic correlations that turn a doped NaCoO2 into a strongly correlated electronic system. A minimal model including orbital degeneracy is proposed and its predictions are discussed. The model is based on a key property of cobalt oxides - the spin-state quasidegeneracy of CoO6 octahedral complex - which has been known, e.g., in the context of an unusual physics of LaCoO3 compound. Another important ingredient of the model is the 90-degree Co-O-Co bonding in NaxCoO2 which allows nearest-neighbor $t_{2g}-e_g$ hopping. This hopping introduces a dynamical mixture of electronic configurations $t_{2g}^6, S=0$ and $t_{2g}^5e_g^1, S=1$ of neighboring cobalt ions. We show that scattering of charge carriers on spin-state fluctuations suppresses their coherent motion and leads to the spin-polaron physics at $xsim 1$. At larger doping when coherent fermionic bands are formed, the model predicts singlet superconductivity of extended s-wave symmetry. The presence of low-lying spin states of Co$^{3+}$ is essential for the pairing mechanism. Implications of the model for magnetic orderings are also discussed.
