Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed high-resolution spin-resolved photoemission spectrometer to clarify the relationship between basic electronic states and origin of anomalous physical properties in Dirac electron systems, and have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) studies on graphene-based materials, iron-based superconductors, and topological insulators/semimetals. We have succeeded in (i) controlling the band gap of graphene by surface adsorption, (ii) observing Dirac-cone band in the nematic phase of parent iron-based superconductors, (iii) controlling Dirac-fermion mass at the interface between ultrathin ferromagnet and Rashba metal, and (iv) discovering new types of topological semimetals. From these results, we have clarified close relationship among Dirac-cone electronic states, crystal symmetry, and origin of unconventional physical properties.
