Fermi surfaces, three-dimensional (3D) abstract interfaces that define the occupied energies of electrons in a solid, are important for characterizing and predicting the thermal, electrical, magnetic, and optical properties of crystalline metals and semiconductors [1]. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is the only technique directly probing the Fermi surface by measuring the Fermi momenta (kF) from energy and angular distribution of photoelectrons dislodged by monochromatic light [2]. Existing electron analyzers are able to determine a number of kF-vectors simultaneously, but current technical limitations prohibit a direct high-resolution 3D Fermi surface mapping. As a result, no such datasets exist, strongly limiting our knowledge about the Fermi surfaces and restricting a detailed comparison with the widely available nowadays calculated 3D Fermi surfaces. Here we show that using a simpler instrumentation, based on the Fourier electron optics combined with a retardation field of the detector, it is possible to perform 3D-mapping within a very short time interval and with very high resolution. We present the first detailed experimental 3D Fermi surface recorded in the full Brillouin zone along the kz-direction as well as other experimental results featuring multiple advantages of our technique. In combination with various light sources, including synchrotron radiation, our methodology and instrumentation offer new opportunities for high-resolution ARPES in the physical and life sciences.

Three Fermion sumrules for interacting systems are derived at T=0, involving the number expectation $bar{N}(mu)$, canonical chemical potentials $mu(m)$, a logarithmic time derivative of the Greens function $gamma_{vec{k} sigma}$ and the static Greens function. In essence we establish at zero temperature the sumrules linking: $$ bar{N}(mu) leftrightarrow sum_{m} Theta(mu- mu(m)) leftrightarrow sum_{vec{k},sigma} Thetaleft(gamma_{vec{k} sigma}right) leftrightarrow sum_{vec{k},sigma} Thetaleft(G_sigma(vec{k},0)right). $$ Connecting them across leads to the Luttinger and Ward sumrule, originally proved perturbatively for Fermi liquids. Our sumrules are nonperturbative in character and valid in a considerably broader setting that additionally includes non-canonical Fermions and Tomonaga-Luttinger models. Generalizations are given for singlet-paired superconductors, where one of the sumrules requires a testable assumption of particle-hole symmetry at all couplings. The sumrules are found by requiring a continuous evolution from the Fermi gas, and by assuming a monotonic increase of $mu(m)$ with particle number m. At finite T a pseudo-Fermi surface, accessible to angle resolved photoemission, is defined using the zero crossings of the first frequency moment of a weighted spectral function.
The field-reentrant (field-reinforced) superconductivity on ferromagnetic superconductors is one of the most interesting topics in unconventional superconductivity. The enhancement of effective mass and the induced ferromagnetic fluctuations play key roles for reentrant superconductivity. However, the associated change of the Fermi surface, which is often observed at (pseudo-) metamagnetic transition, can also be a key ingredient. In order to study the Fermi surface instability, we performed Hall effect measurements in the ferromagnetic superconductor URhGe. The Hall effect of URhGe is well explained by two contributions, namely by the normal Hall effect and by the large anomalous Hall effect due to skew scattering. The large change in the Hall coefficient is observed at low fields between the paramagnetic and ferromagnetic states for H // c-axis (easy-magnetization axis) in the orthorhombic structure, indicating that the Fermi surface is reconstructed in the ferromagnetic state below the Curie temperature (T_Curie=9.5K). At low temperatures (T << T_Curie), when the field is applied along the b-axis, the reentrant superconductivity was observed in both the Hall resistivity and the magnetoresistance below 0.4K. Above 0.4K, a large jump with the first-order nature was detected in the Hall resistivity at a spin-reorientation field H_R ~ 12.5T, demonstrating that the marked change of the Fermi surface occurs between the ferromagnetic state and the polarized state above H_R. The results can be understood by the Lifshitz-type transition, induced by the magnetic field or by the change of the effective magnetic field.
By means of high-resolution angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) we have studied the fermiology of 2H transition metal dichalcogenide polytypes TaSe2, NbSe2, and Cu0.2NbS2. The tight-binding model of the electronic structure, extracted f rom ARPES spectra for all three compounds, was used to calculate the Lindhard function (bare spin susceptibility), which reflects the propensity to charge density wave (CDW) instabilities observed in TaSe2 and NbSe2. We show that though the Fermi surfaces of all three compounds possess an incommensurate nesting vector in the close vicinity of the CDW wave vector, the nesting and ordering wave vectors do not exactly coincide, and there is no direct relationship between the magnitude of the susceptibility at the nesting vector and the CDW transition temperature. The nesting vector persists across the incommensurate CDW transition in TaSe2 as a function of temperature despite the observable variations of the Fermi surface geometry in this temperature range. In Cu0.2NbS2 the nesting vector is present despite different doping level, which lets us expect a possible enhancement of the CDW instability with Cu-intercalation in the CuxNbS2 family of materials.
We introduce a simple but powerful zero temperature Stoner model to explain the unusual phase diagram of the ferromagnetic superconductor, UGe2. Triplet superconductivity is driven in the ferromagnetic phase by tuning the majority spin Fermi level th rough one of two peaks in the paramagnetic density of states (DOS). Each peak is associated with a metamagnetic jump in magnetisation. The twin peak DOS may be derived from a tight-binding, quasi-one-dimensional bandstructure, inspired by previous bandstructure calculations.
A finite-temperature ($T>0$) study of a model of a mixture of spin-zero hardcore bosons and spinless fermions, with filling fractions $rho_B$ and $rho_F$, respectively, on a two-dimensional square lattice with composite hopping $t$ is presented. The composite hopping swaps the locations of a fermion and a boson that occupy nearest-neighbor sites of the lattice. The superfluid order parameter $psi$, the femion hopping amplitude $phi$, the chemical potential $mu$, the free energy minimum $tilde{F}$ and entropy $S$ are calculated in the limit $rho_B+rho_F=1$ within a mean-field approximation, and lead to a phase diagram in the $rho_F - T$ plane. This phase diagram consists of a metallic superfluid phase under a dome-shaped $T(rho_F)$, and insulating normal liquid and insulating normal gas phases outside the dome. These phases are separated by coupled discontinuous transitions as indicated by jumps in $psi$ and $phi$. The maximum critical transition temperature $T_c$ is observed very close to $rho_F = 1/2$. While $tilde{F} (T)$ is continuous with a derivative discontinuity at $T=T_c (rho_F)$ for $0 <rho_F le 1/2$ (first-order transition), it becomes {em discontinuous} for $rho_F>1/2$ (zeroth-order transition), where the entropy becomes negative for a range of temperatures below $T_c$. The ratio of $T_c$ to Fermi band width agrees remarkably with the ratio of $T_c$/$T_F$ (where $T_F$ is the Fermi temperature) of unconventional superfluids and superconductors like Fermi-Bose mixtures, the high-$T_c$ cuprates, iron-based and hydride superconductors, that exhibit experimental values of $T_c$ spread over nine orders of magnitude from $sim 200$nK to $sim 260$K.
