The electronic structure of a new charge-density-wave/ superconductor system, 1T-CuxTiSe2, has been studied by photoemission spectroscopy. A correlated semiconductor band structure is revealed for the undoped case. With Cu doping, the charge density wave is suppressed by the raising of the chemical potential, while the superconductivity is enhanced by the enhancement of the density of states. Moreover, the strong scattering at high doping might be responsible for the suppression of superconductivity in that regime.

Although the mechanism of superconductivity in the cuprates remains elusive, it is generally agreed that at the heart of the problem is the physics of doped Mott insulators. The cuprate parent compound has one unpaired electron per Cu site, and is pr
edicted by band theory to be a half-filled metal. The strong onsite Coulomb repulsion, however, prohibits electron hopping between neighboring sites and leads to a Mott insulator ground state with antiferromagnetic (AF) ordering. Charge carriers doped into the CuO2 plane destroy the insulating phase and superconductivity emerges as the carrier density is sufficiently high. The natural starting point for tackling high Tc superconductivity is to elucidate the electronic structure of the parent Mott insulator and the behavior of a single doped charge. Here we use a scanning tunneling microscope to investigate the atomic scale electronic structure of the Ca2CuO2Cl2 parent Mott insulator of the cuprates. The full electronic spectrum across the Mott-Hubbard gap is uncovered for the first time, which reveals the particle-hole symmetric and spatially uniform Hubbard bands. A single electron donated by surface defect is found to create a broad in-gap electronic state that is strongly localized in space with spatial characteristics intimately related to the AF spin background. The unprecedented real space electronic structure of the parent cuprate sheds important new light on the origion of high Tc superconductivity from the doped Mott insulator perspective.
We use magnetization measurements, high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), and density functional theory (DFT) calculations to study the electronic properties of Au${}_{2}$Pb, a topological superconductor candidate. The mag
netization measurements reveal three discontinuities at 40, 51, and 99~K that agree well with reported structural phase transitions. ARPES measurements of the Au${}_{2}$Pb (111) surface at 110~K shows a shallow hole pocket at the center and flower-petal-like surface states at the corners of the Brillouin zone. These observations match the results of DFT calculations relatively well. The flower-petal-like surface states appear to originate from a Dirac like dispersion close to the zone corner. For the Au${}_{2}$Pb (001) surface at 150~K, ARPES reveals at least one electron pocket between the $Gamma$ and $M$ points, consistent with the DFT calculations. Our results provide evidence for the possible existence of Dirac state in this material.
Cuprate superconductors host a multitude of low-energy optical phonons. Using time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we study coherent phonons in Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$Ca$_{0.92}$Y$_{0.08}$Cu$_{2}$O$_{8+delta}$. Sub-meV modulations of the ele
ctronic band structure are observed at frequencies of $3.94pm 0.01$ and $5.59pm 0.06$ THz. For the dominant mode at 3.94 THz, the amplitude of the band energy oscillation weakly increases as a function of momentum away from the node. Theoretical calculations allow identifying the observed modes as CuO$_{2}$-derived $A_{1g}$ phonons. The Bi- and Sr-derived $A_{1g}$ modes which dominate Raman spectra in the relevant frequency range are absent in our measurements. This highlights the mode-selectivity for phonons coupled to the near-Fermi-level electrons, which originate from CuO$_{2}$ planes and dictate thermodynamic properties.
At a temperature of roughly 1,K, ce{Sr2RuO4} undergoes a transition from a normal Fermi liquid to a superconducting phase. Even while the former is relatively simple and well understood, the superconducting state is not even after 25 years of study.
More recently it has been found that critical temperatures can be enhanced by application of uniaxial strain, up to a critical strain, after which it falls off. In this work, we take an `instability approach and seek for divergences in susceptibilities. This provides an unbiased way to distinguish tendencies to competing ground states. We show that in the unstrained compound the singlet and triplet instabilities of the normal Fermi liquid phase are closely spaced. Under uniaxial strain electrons residing on all orbitals contributing to the Fermiology become more coherent while the electrons of Ru-$d_{xy}$ character become heavier and electrons of Ru-$d_{xz,yz}$ characters become lighter. In the process, Im,$chi(mathbf{q},omega)$ increases rapidly around the incommensurate vector $mathbf{q}{=}(0.3,0.3,0)2pi/a$ while it gets suppressed at all other commensurate vectors, in particular at $q{=}0$, which is essential for spin-triplet superconductivity. Thus the triplet superconducting instability remains the lagging instability of the system and the singlet instability enhances under strain, leading to a large energy-scale separation between these competing instabilities. At large strain an instability to a spin density wave overtakes the superconducting one. The analysis relies on a high-fidelity, emph{ab initio} description of the one-particle properties and two-particle susceptibilities, based on the Quasiparticle Self-Consistent emph{GW} approximation augmented by Dynamical Mean Field theory. This approach is described and its high fidelity confirmed by comparing to observed one- and two-particle properties.
Alkali metal dosing (AMD) has been widely used as a way to control doping without chemical substitution. This technique, in combination with angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), often provides an opportunity to observe unexpected phenom
ena. However, the amount of transferred charge and the corresponding change in the electronic structure vary significantly depending on the material. Here, we report study on the correlation between the sample work function and alkali metal induced electronic structure change for three iron-based superconductors: FeSe, Ba(Fe$_{0.94}$Co$_{0.06}$)$_{2}$As$_{2}$ and NaFeAs which share a similar Fermi surface topology. Electronic structure change upon monolayer of alkali metal dosing and the sample work function were measured by ARPES. Our results show that the degree of electronic structure change is proportional to the difference between the work function of the sample and Mullikens absolute electronegativity of the dosed alkali metal. This finding provides a possible way to estimate the AMD induced electronic structure change.
