Development of laser-based scanning µ-ARPES system with ultimate energy and momentum resolutions

Abstract

We have developed a laser-based scanning angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy system (µ-ARPES) equipped with a high precision 6-axis control system, realizing not only high-resolution photoemission spectroscopy in energy and momentum, but also spatial resolution of a µm scale. This enables our µ-ARPES system to probe fine details of intrinsic electronic states near the Fermi level such as the superconducting gaps and lifetime broadening.
