We investigated the electronic structure of $$eta$$-Mo$$_4$$O$$_{11}$$ bulk crystal in the whole Brillouin zone at a normal metallic state by utilizing resonant and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopies and first-principles calculations. Mo 4$$p$$-4$$d$$ resonant photoelectron experiment revealed that the Mo 4$$d$$ electrons of MoO$$_6$$ octahedra mainly contributed to the electrical conductivity. We also demonstrated that the free electron-like band dispersions along $$k_b$$ axis, consisting of Mo 4$$d_{xy}$$ electrons, do not show clear $$k_a$$ and $$k_c$$ dependences and formed a one-dimensional Fermi surface even at the normal state. The observed low-dimensional and anisotropic band structures are expected to induce exotic physical properties such as quantized bulk Hall effect, charge density wave transitions, and Luttinger liquid behavior.

The role of spin-orbit interaction has been recently reconsidered in high-$$T_c$$ cuprates, stimulated by the recent experimental observations of spin-polarized electronic states. However, due to the complexity of the spin texture reported, the origin of the spin polarization in high-$$T_c$$ cuprates remains unclear. Here, we present the spin- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) data on the facing momentum points that are symmetric with respect to the $$Gamma$$ point, to ensure the intrinsic spin nature related to the initial state. We consistently found the very weak spin polarization only along the nodal direction, with no indication of spin-splitting of the band. Our findings thus call for a revision of the simple application of the spin-orbit interaction, which has been treated within the standard framework of the Rashba interaction in high-$$T_c$$ cuprates.

We study ultrafast population dynamics in the topological surface state of Sb$$_2$$Te$$_3$$ in two-dimensional momentum space with time- and angle-resolved two-photon photoemission spectroscopy. Linear polarized mid-infrared pump pulses are used to permit a direct optical excitation across the Dirac point. We show that this resonant excitation is strongly enhanced within the Dirac cone along three of the six $$bar{Gamma}$$-$$bar{M}$$ directions and results in a macroscopic photocurrent when the plane of incidence is aligned along a $$bar{Gamma}$$-$$bar{K}$$ direction. Our experimental approach makes it possible to disentangle the decay of transiently excited population and photocurent by elastic and inelastic electron scattering within the full Dirac cone in unprecedented detail. This is utilized to show that doping of Sb$$_2$$Te$$_3$$ by vanadium atoms strongly enhances inelastic electron scattering to lower energies, but only scarcely affects elastic scattering around the Dirac cone.

We systematically investigated the electronic properties of monolayer and multilayer vanadium selenide films grown with different conditions using in situ angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and first-principles calculations. We observed the band dispersions of pristine VSe$$_2$$ in a sample grown at substrate temperature ($$T_{rm sub}$$) of 250$$^{circ}$$C, while the significant modulations of the Se-derived bands can be seen at $$T_{rm sub}$$ = 380$$^{circ}$$C. For $$T_{rm sub}$$ = 420$$^{circ}$$C, we found that the V self-intercalated V$$_5$$Se$$_8$$ was formed. As a simple and convenient way, we also demonstrate that the monolayer V$$_5$$Se$$_8$$ can be fabricated by annealing from the multilayer VSe$$_2$$ film, and the possible formation mechanism is discussed. The establishment of the growth methods of V$$_5$$Se$$_8$$ film and verifying its electronic properties provide the substantial step for the creation of the 2D vDW heterostructures.

Fe$$_5$$GeTe$$_2$$ is a van der Waals (vdW) coupled unconventional ferromagnetic metal with a high Curie temperature ($$T_{rm C}$$), exceeding 300 K. The formation of an anomalous ground state far below $$T_{rm C}$$ has attracted great interest, leading to a need to understand the spin-polarized electronic state near the Fermi energy ($$E_{rm F}$$) at low temperature. Despite recent extensive study, a microscopic understanding of the spin polarized electronic structure around $$E_{rm F}$$ has not been established yet due to the intrinsic complexity of both the crystal and band structures. In this work, we investigate the temperature dependence of element-specific soft X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD). Systematic temperature evolution in the XMCD signal from both magnetic Fe and its ligand Te is clearly observed. Importantly, the enhancement of the hybridization between Fe 3$$d$$ and Te 5$$p$$ states in the zero-magnetic field limit has been revealed. In light of the possible emergence of an exotic ground state, we discuss the temperature and magnetic field evolution of the element specific XMCD results.

We fabricated superlattice films composed of Bi$$_2$$ bilayers (BLs) and Bi$$_2$$Te$$_3$$ quintuple layers (QLs) by annealing pure Bi$$_2$$Te$$_3$$ films. It was found that Te desorbs from the QL to form the BL with an activation energy of 2.7 eV. Eventually two distinct stoichiometric phases were formed, Bi$$_1$$Te$$_1$$ (QL-BL-QL) and Bi$$_4$$Te$$_3$$ (QL-BL), as evidenced by scanning transmission emission microscopy measurements. The surface-state dispersion was measured with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and the topological nature of each sample is discussed. Our method offers a convenient and simple way to fabricate superlattice films with different topological properties.

二次元強磁性体候補物質である単層1$$T$$-VSe$$_2$$薄膜の磁気特性を、元素選択的磁気プローブであるX線磁気円二色性(XMCD)を用いて調べた。高分解能測定を行うことで、外部磁場下において原子レベルの薄さの1$$T$$-VSe$$_2$$薄膜から明確なXMCDシグナルを検出することに成功した。X線の入射角度を操作することで、面内と面外の磁気特性を分離し、強い磁気異方性を見出すことができた。さらに、磁場と温度に依存したXMCD測定により、6Kでも長距離強磁性秩序は存在せず、隣接するバナジウムイオン間の短距離強磁性・反強磁性相互作用が存在することが明らかになった。このような低温での磁気挙動は、単層1$$T$$-VSe$$_2$$が強磁性になりかけていることを意味しており、VSe$$_2$$系ヘテロ構造で報告されている近接効果誘起強磁性の説明となる。

軟X線放射光を用いた角度分解光電子分光法を、1nmのAlキャッピング層を有するホイスラー型Co$$_2$$MnGa薄膜に適用した。バルクのフェルミ面とバンド構造は、表面処理を行っていないにもかかわらず、3次元の結晶構造に由来する面外方向の運動量に沿って変化していた。さらに、フェルミ準位付近に交点を持つ特徴的な交差バンド(ワイルコーン)が存在し、計算結果と一致していた。ワイルコーンはバルク由来のもので、高い異常ネルンスト係数と異常ホール係数の原因となっている。Co$$_2$$MnGeとCo$$_2$$MnGaのバンド構造を詳細に比較した結果、両合金とも剛体バンド描像が有効であり、異常伝導性を改善するためにGaをGeに置き換えることでキャリアの微調整が可能であることが示された。

We successfully fabricated a MnBi$$_2$$Te$$_4$$/Bi$$_2$$Te$$_3$$ heterostructure by incorporating Mn and Te inside the topmost quintuple layer of Bi$$_2$$Te$$_3$$, as unambiguously confirmed by LEED I-V scanning transmission electron microscopy measurements. The surface-state Dirac cone of the heterostructure showed little change compared to that of the pristine Bi$$_2$$Te$$_3$$ and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism measurements showed that the system was paramagnetic down to 5.6 K. These results are in contrast to the previous works on related materials that showed magnetic order around 10 K as well as theoretical predictions and suggests the intricacy of the magnetic properties of two-dimensional van der Waals magnets.

Topological insulators (TIs) characterized by gapless and spin-polarized band dispersion on their surfaces have been extensively studied over the last decade. This article reviews our recent works on ultrafast carrier dynamics of Sb$$_2$$Te$$_3$$-based nonmagnetic and magnetic TIs by utilizing state-of-the-art femtosecond time- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. We have demonstrated that the electronic recovery time elongated from a few ps to $$>$$ 400 ps in the series of (Sb$$_{1-x}$$Bi$$_x$$)$$_2$$Te$$_3$$. We also investigated how the magnetic-impurity affects the carrier dynamics in ferromagnetic Sb$$_{2-y}$$V$$_y$$Te$$_3$$. It was found that the electronic recovery time drastically shortened from a few ps to $$<$$ 500 fs with increasing vanadium concentration. Since the lifetime of the nonequilibrated surface Dirac fermions can range from femto- to nano-second, Sb$$_2$$Te$$_3$$-based TIs would be promising for ultrafast spin switching and spin-polarized current generation device applications.

トポロジカル絶縁体の超高速キャリアダイナミクスの観測と光機能化

日本物理学会誌, 75(12), p.756 - 760, 2020/12

By using time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we investigate the ultrafast carrier dynamics in the series of (Sb,Bi)$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$. We show that the electronic recovery time for the surface Dirac fermions is prolonged to $$>$$ 400 ps when the charge neutrality point is approached. We also discuss the emergence of light-induced functionalizations such as surface photovoltage effect in the ultrafast time-domain. Our study strengthens the route toward the Dirac materials to be an opto-spintronic application.

Weyl semimetals are characterized by the presence of massless band dispersion in momentum space. When a Weyl semimetal meets magnetism, large anomalous transport properties emerge as a consequence of its topological nature. Here, using in-situ spin- and angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy combined with ab initio calculations, we visualize the spin-polarized Weyl cone and flat-band surface states of ferromagnetic Co$$_2$$MnGa films with full remanent magnetization. We demonstrate that the anomalous Hall and Nernst conductivities systematically grow when the magnetization-induced massive Weyl cone at a Lifshitz quantum critical point approaches the Fermi energy, until a high anomalous Nernst thermopower of $$sim$$6.2 $$mu$$VK$$^{-1}$$ is realized at room temperature. Given this topological quantum state and full remanent magnetization, Co$$_2$$MnGa films are promising for realizing high efficiency heat flux and magnetic field sensing devices operable at room temperature and zero-field.

We fabricate a novel magnetic topological heterostructure Mn$$_{4}$$Bi$$_{2}$$Te$$_{7}$$/Bi$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$ where multiple magnetic layers are inserted into the topmost quintuple layer of the original topological insulator Bi$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$. A massive Dirac cone (DC) with a gap of 40-75 meV at 16 K is observed. By tracing the temperature evolution, this gap is shown to gradually decrease with increasing temperature and a blunt transition from a massive to a massless DC occurs around 200-250 K. Magnetic measurements show that there are two distinct Mn components in the system that corresponds to the two heterostructures; MnBi$$_{2}$$Te$$_{4}$$/Bi$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$ is paramagnetic at 6 K while Mn$$_{4}$$Bi$$_{2}$$Te$$_{7}$$/Bi$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$ is ferromagnetic with a negative hysteresis (critical temperature 20 K). This novel heterostructure is potentially important for future device applications.

Unveiling spin-dependent unoccupied electronic states of Co$$_{2}$$MnGe (Ga) film via Ge (Ga) $$L_{2,3}$$ absorption spectroscopy

X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) spectroscopy were applied at the Ge (Ga) $$L_{2,3}$$ edge to unravel the spin-resolved unoccupied electronic states of Co$$_{2}$$MnGe (Ga). Complicated spectral features were observed in both XAS and XMCD spectra. For their interpretation, we compared the experimental XAS and XMCD spectra with the calculated Ge (Ga) 4$$s$$ and 4$$d$$ orbital partial density of states. The comparison enabled a qualitative explanation of the XMCD spectra as the difference between the majority and minority-spin unoccupied density of states summed over the 4$$s$$ and 4$$d$$ orbitals. Our finding provides a new approach to uncover the spin-split partial density of states above the Fermi level.

Resonant photoelectron spectroscopy at the Co and Mn 2${it p}$ core absorption edges of half-metallic Co$$_{2}$$MnGe has been performed to determine the element-specific density of states (DOS). A significant contribution of the Mn 3${it d}$ partial DOS near the Fermi level ($$E_{F}$$) was clarified by measurement at the Mn 2${it p}$ absorption edge. Further analysis by first-principles calculation revealed that it has $$t_{2g}$$ symmetry, which must be responsible for the electrical conductivity along the line perpendicular to the film plane. The dominant normal Auger contribution observed at the Co 2${it p}$ absorption edge indicates delocalization of photoexcited Co 3${it d}$ electrons. The difference in the degrees of localization of the Mn 3${it d}$ and Co 3${it d}$ electrons in Co$$_{2}$$MnGe is explained by the first-principles calculation.

Magnetic-impurity-induced modifications to ultrafast carrier dynamics in the ferromagnetic topological insulators Sb$$_{2-x}$$V$$_{x}$$Te$$_{3}$$

We systematically investigate the magnetic, structural and electronic properties and the ultrafast carrier dynamics in a series of V-doped Sb$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$ samples of composition Sb$$_{2-x}$$V$$_{x}$$Te$$_{3}$$ with x = 0, 0.015 and 0.03. Element specific X-ray magnetic circular dichroism signifies that the ferromagnetism of V-doped Sb$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$ is governed by the p-d hybridization between the host carrier and the magnetic dopant. Time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy has revealed that the V impurity induced states underlying the topological surface state (TSS) add scattering channels that significantly shorten the duration of transient surface electrons down to 100 fs scale. This is in a sharp contrast to the prolonged duration reported for pristine samples though the TSS is located inside the bulk energy gap of the host in either magnetic or non-magnetic cases. It implies the presence of a mobility gap in the bulk energy gap region of the host material.

We investigate the microscopic origin of ferromagnetism coupled with topological insulators in V-doped (Sb,Bi)$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$ employing X-ray magnetic circular dichroism and angle-resolved two-photon photoemission spectroscopies, combined with first-principles calculations. We found an magnetic moment at the Te site anti-parallel to that of the V and Sb sites, which plays a key role in the ferromagnetic order. We ascribe it to the hybridization between Te 5${it p}$ and V 3${it d}$ majority spin states at the Fermi energy, consistent with the Zener-type ${it p}$-${it d}$ exchange interaction scenario. The substitution of Bi for Sb suppresses the bulk ferromagnetism by introducing extra electron carriers in the majority spin channel of the Te ${it p}$ states that compensates the antiparallel magnetic moment on the Te site. Our findings reveal important clues to designing magnetic topological insulators with higher Curie temperature that work under ambient conditions.

磁性元素を添加したトポロジカル絶縁体は、量子異常ホール効果や無散逸伝導などの魅力的な現象の発現が予言され、低消費電力スピンデバイスの開発につながっていくものと期待されている。既に、いくつかの磁性添加トポロジカル絶縁体で長距離磁気秩序が確認されている。しかし、量子異常ホール効果の発現は、極低温におけるCrを添加した(Sb,Bi)$$_{2}$$Te$$_{3}$$系に限られており、強磁性の微視的な起源はほとんど分かっていない。そこで、今回、X線磁気円二色性実験による元素選択的研究を行うことにより、本物質系の強磁性は、母体の正孔キャリアーを媒介としたものであり、Crの3d電子とSbやTeのp電子の相互作用が極めて重要であることを明らかにした。この結果は、異常量子ホール素子の実現に向けても重要である。

Spectroscopic evidence of band Jahn-Teller distortion upon martensitic phase transition in Heusler-type Ni-Fe(Co)-Ga ferromagnetic shape-memory alloy films

The temperature evolution of the electronic structure of a Ni-Fe(Co)-Ga/MgO(100), Heusler-type, ferromagnetic shape-memory alloy thin film has been followed by a bulk-sensitive hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, element-selective soft X-ray magnetic circular dichroism, and first-principles calculation. The reversible changes of the electronic states near the Fermi energy show a hysteresis associated with the martensitic phase transition (MPT), where the pseudogap opens on cooling and closes again on warming. In addition, the Ni 3d spin magnetic moment increases by approximately two times across the MPT, whereas the change of Fe 3d moment is moderate. By comparing the experimental results with the calculated spin-resolved density of states, we conclude that the band Jahn-Teller effect of Ni 3d and Fe 3d orbitals is responsible for MPT.
