Specular reflection of spin-polarized electrons from the W(001) spin-filter crystal in a large range of scattering energies and angles
2015
Extending previous work on the imaging spin-filter technique based on electron diffraction from W(001) in the specular (00)-LEED (low-energy electron diffraction) spot, we studied the scattering-energy and angle-of-incidence landscape of spin sensitivity $S$ and reflectivity ${I/I}_{0}$. The setup includes a spin-polarized GaAs electron source and a rotatable delay-line detector for spatially resolving detection. We measured the intensity and spin asymmetry of the specularly reflected beam for energies between 14 and 37 eV and angles of incidence between ${30}^{\ensuremath{\circ}}$ and ${60}^{\ensuremath{\circ}}$. Resulting energy-angular landscapes show rather good agreement with theory [r…
Spin texture of time-reversal symmetry invariant surface states on W(110)
2016
AbstractWe find in the case of W(110) previously overlooked anomalous surface states having their spin locked at right angle to their momentum using spin-resolved momentum microscopy. In addition to the well known Dirac-like surface state with Rashba spin texture near the "Equation missing"-point, we observe a tilted Dirac cone with circularly shaped cross section and a Dirac crossing at 0.28 × "Equation missing" "Equation missing" within the projected bulk band gap of tungsten. This state has eye-catching similarities to the spin-locked surface state of a topological insulator. The experiments are fortified by a one-step photoemission calculation in its density-matrix formulation.
Anomalous d-like surface resonances on Mo(110) analyzed by time-of-flight momentum microscopy.
2015
The electronic surface states on Mo(110) have been investigated using time-of-flight momentum microscopy with synchrotron radiation (hν=35 eV). This novel angle-resolved photoemission approach yields a simultaneous acquisition of the E-vs-k spectral function in the full surface Brillouin zone and several eV energy interval. (kx,ky,EB)-maps with 3.4 A(-1) diameter reveal a rich structure of d-like surface resonances in the spin-orbit induced partial band gap. Calculations using the one-step model in its density matrix formulation predict an anomalous state with Dirac-like signature and Rashba spin texture crossing the bandgap at Γ¯ and EB=1.2 eV. The experiment shows that the linear dispersi…
