X-Ray Absorption Near-Edge Spectra Of Overdoped La₂₋ₓsrₓcuo₄ High-T(C) Superconductors, Towfiq Ahmed, Tanmoy Das, J. Kas, B. Barbiellini, Fernando Vila, R. Markiewicz, A. Bansil, J. Rehr Apr 2012

X-Ray Absorption Near-Edge Spectra Of Overdoped La₂₋ₓsrₓcuo₄ High-T(C) Superconductors, Towfiq Ahmed, Tanmoy Das, J. Kas, B. Barbiellini, Fernando Vila, R. Markiewicz, A. Bansil, J. Rehr

Bernardo Barbiellini

We present results for realistic modeling of the x-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) of the overdoped high-Tc superconductor La₂₋ₓSrₓCuO₄ in the hole doping range x = 0.20 - 0.30. Our computations are based on a real-space Green's function approach in which strong-correlation effects are taken into account in terms of a doping-dependent self-energy. The predicted O K-edge XANES is found to be in good accord with the corresponding experimental results in this overdoped regime. We find that the low energy spectra are dominated by the contribution of O atoms in the cuprate planes, with little contribution from apical O …

We have observed the bulk Fermi surface (FS) in an overdoped (x=0.3) single crystal of La₂₋ₓSrₓCuO₄ by using Compton scattering. A two-dimensional (2D) momentum density reconstruction from measured Compton profiles yields a clear FS signature in the third Brillouin zone along [100]. The quantitative agreement between density functional theory (DFT) calculations and momentum density experiment suggests that Fermi-liquid physics is restored in the overdoped regime. In particular the predicted FS topology is found to be in good accord with the corresponding experimental data. We find similar quantitative agreement between the measured 2D angular correlation of positron annihilation radiation (2D-ACAR) spectra …

Evolution Of Midgap States And Residual Three Dimensionality In La₂₋ₓsrₓcuo₄, S. Sahrakorpi, M. Lindroos, R. Markiewicz, A. Bansil

Robert Markiewicz

We carry out extensive first-principles doping-dependent computations of angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) intensities in La₂₋ₓSrₓCuO₄ over a wide range of binding energies. Intercell hopping and the associated three dimensionality, which is usually neglected in discussing cuprate physics, is shown to play a key role in shaping the ARPES spectra. Despite the obvious importance of strong coupling effects (e.g., the presence of a lower Hubbard band coexisting with midgap states in the doped insulator), a number of salient features of the experimental ARPES spectra are captured to a surprising extent when kz dispersion is properly included in the analysis.
