Higgs oscillations in nonequilibrium superconductors provide an unique tool to obtain information about the underlying order parameter. Several properties like the absolute value, existence of multiple gaps and the symmetry of the order parameter can be encoded in the Higgs oscillation spectrum. Studying Higgs oscillations with time-resolved angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) has the advantage over optical measurements that a momentum-resolved analysis of the condensate dynamic is possible. In this paper, we investigate the time-resolved spectral function measured in ARPES for different quench protocols. We find that analyzing amplitude oscillations of the ARPES intensity in the whole Brillouin zone allows to understand how the condensate dynamic contributes to the emerging of collective Higgs oscillations. Furthermore, by evaluating the phase of these oscillations the symmetry deformation dynamic of the condensate can be revealed, which gives insight about the ground state symmetry of the system. With such an analysis, time-resolved ARPES experiments might be used in future as a powerful tool in the field of Higgs spectroscopy.

Recent studies have emphasized the importance of impurity scattering for the optical Higgs response of superconductors. In the dirty limit, an additional paramagnetic coupling of light to the superconducting condensate arises which drastically enhanc es excitation. So far, most work concentrated on the periodic driving with light, where the third-harmonic generation response of the Higgs mode was shown to be enhanced. In this work, we additionally calculate the time-resolved optical conductivity of single- and two-band superconductors in a two-pulse quench-probe setup, where we find good agreement with existing experimental results. We use the Mattis-Bardeen approach to incorporate impurity scattering and calculate explicitly the time-evolution of the system. Calculations are performed both in a diagrammatic picture derived from an effective action formalism and within a time-dependent density matrix formalism.

Higgs spectroscopy is a new field in which Higgs modes in nonequilibrium superconductors are analyzed to gain information about the ground state. One experimental setup in which the Higgs mode in s-wave superconductors was observed is periodic drivin g with THz light, which shows resonances in the third-harmonic generation (THG) signal if twice the driving frequency matches the energy of the Higgs mode. We derive expressions of the driven gap oscillations for arbitrary gap symmetry and calculate the THG response. We demonstrate that the possible Higgs modes for superconductors with non-trivial gap symmetry can lead to additional resonances if twice the driving frequency matches the energy of these Higgs modes and we disentangle the influence of charge density fluctuations (CDF) to the THG signal within our clean-limit analysis. With this we show that THG experiments on unconventional superconductors allow for a detection of their Higgs modes. This paves the way for future studies on realistic systems including additional features to understand the collective excitation spectra of unconventional superconductors.

Present-day angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) has offered a tremendous advance in the understanding of electron energy spectra in cuprate superconductors and some related compounds. However, in high magnetic field, magnetic quantum os cillations at low temperatures indicate the existence of small electron (hole) Fermi pockets seemingly missing in ARPES of hole (electron) doped cuprates. Here ARPES and quantum oscillations are reconciled in the framework of an impurity band in the charge-transfer Mott-Hubbard insulator.
The angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) autocorrelation in the electron-doped cuprate superconductors is studied based on the kinetic-energy driven superconducting (SC) mechanism. It is shown that the strong electron correlation induces the electron Fermi surface (EFS) reconstruction, where the most of the quasiparticles locate at around the hot spots on EFS, and then these hot spots connected by the scattering wave vectors ${bf q}_{i}$ construct an {it octet} scattering model. In a striking analogy to the hole-doped case, the sharp ARPES autocorrelation peaks are directly correlated with the scattering wave vectors ${bf q}_{i}$, and are weakly dispersive in momentum space. However, in a clear contrast to the hole-doped counterparts, the position of the ARPES autocorrelation peaks move toward to the opposite direction with the increase of doping. The theory also indicates that there is an intrinsic connection between the ARPES autocorrelation and quasiparticle scattering interference (QSI) in the electron-doped cuprate superconductors.
Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is typically used to study only the occupied electronic band structure of a material. Here we use laser-based ARPES to observe a feature in bismuth-based superconductors that, in contrast, is related to the unoccupied states. Specifically, we observe a dispersive suppression of intensity cutting across the valence band, which, when compared with relativistic one-step calculations, can be traced to two final-state gaps in the bands 6 eV above the Fermi level. This finding opens up possibilities to bring the ultra-high momentum resolution of existing laser-ARPES instruments to the unoccupied electron states. For cases where the final-state gap is not the object of study, we find that its effects can be made to vanish under certain experimental conditions.
