- The electronic structure of the ZnO(0001) surface was studied by angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. The recorded normal emission spectra give information about the Valence band states as well as the Zn 3d states. The dispersions of the four valence bands observed in the (0001) direction were compared with theory and are in good agreement with recent calculations which consider the Zn 3d electrons as part of the valence band. The Zn 3d states are seen to separate into two groups of four and six bands, which show dispersion with k(perpendicular to). This is in agreement with theoretical results but the location of these states were not accurately predicted. The present photoemission results show that they lie around 10.5 eV below E(F). Two surface states were observed on the (0001) surface. One, at 7.5 eV binding energy, was predicted by theory and is interpreted as arising from the ''back-bondings'' of the Zn 4s-O 2p mixed bulk states. The other one at 4.5 eV below E(F), most likely Zn 4p-0 2p derived, was not predicted by theoretical calculations and this is discussed further in the text. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.

- Photoelectron spectroscopy results on single crystals of the superconductors Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8,Bi2Sr 2CuO6, Ba0.6K0.4BiO3 and the semiconductor Ba0.9K0.1BiO3 are reported for the photon energy region around the O K absorption threshold. The development of the O-KVV Auger structure has been carefully monitored as a function of photon energy. A non-monotonic behavior displaying a feature at a constant binding energy of about 14 eV was found for Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 and Bi2Sr2CuO6 in a narrow photon energy region of 1 eV at the main edge of the O K absorption spectrum around 530 eV. The corresponding enhancement, connected with the autoionization of O 2 p states, is absent in Ba1-xKxBiO3 in contrast to Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 and Bi2Sr2CuO6. The resonant enhancement is more pronounced for Bi2Sr2CuO6 as compared to Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8, which can be explained by a lower charge carrier concentration in the former case, leading to a more localized nature of intermediate O 2 p states. The model parameters Cu d-d and O p-p Coulomb interactions and the charge transfer energy Δ are estimated from the experiments.

- Semiconducting Ba0.9K0.1BiO3 and superconducting Ba0.6K0.4BiO3 single crystals cleaved in situ have been studied by core level and valence band photoelectron spectroscopy and O K edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy. It was found that the general shape of the valence band spectrum agrees with the shape predicted by band structure calculations, but the intensity near the Fermi level, was lower in the experimental spectrum as compared to the calculated. The O K edge spectra showed that the metallic phase is not related to the presence of doping inducted O 2p holes. This property of Ba1-xKxBiO3 shows that the semiconductor-metal transition of this system is of a different nature than that of the hole doped cuprate high-T-c superconductors. The core level photoemission spectra of the cations showed a small asymmetry for Ba0.9K0.1BiO3. Corresponding spectra for Ba0.6K0.4BiO3 showed a larger asymmetry resulting in a resolved high binding energy shoulder in the Bi 4f spectrum. The origin of this feature is discussed.

X-ray absorption study of oxygen in the high-Tc superconductor Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 near the interfaces to Cu, Ag and Au

- The influence on O 2p holes in single crystalline Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 upon the interface formation to Cu, Ag and Au has been studied by O K edge X-ray absorption measurements. It was found that Cu reduces the amount of doping induced O 2p holes significantly in the vicinity of the interface, whereas Ag and Au gave a much smaller reduction of these states. Photoemission spectra confirmed previous findings that Cu causes a strong chemical reaction at the Bi-O surface of Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8, in contrast to Ag and Au which induced only a minimal reaction. The results support the opinion that the Bi-O layers are essential for the doping of the Cu-O2 layers in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8.

ANGLE-RESOLVED PHOTOEMISSION ON NIO - ON THE NATURE OF THE VALENCE-BAND

- Angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy has been performed on the valence band of NiO at the National Swedish Laboratory for Synchrotron Radiation. Normal emission spectra have been recorded for photon energies between 17 and 140 eV in order to study the electronic structure of the valence band. The experimentally determined band structure has been compared with a local density augmented plane wave band structure calculation. Signs of the influence of antiferromagnetic ordering are found and the general agreement between experimental and theoretical oxygen derived bands indicates strong hybridization between Ni 3d and O 2p orbitals.

- Photoelectron spectroscopy data from Bi2Sr2Ca1-xYxCu2O8+delta Single crystals, for x = 0, 0.16, and 0.55, are presented. It is shown that there are core level shifts related to the opening of a pseudogap and that similar shifts are observed at the opening of the superconducting gap in optimally doped samples. This result is in agreement with pair formation above T-c as suggested by V.J. Emery and S.A. Kivelson [Nature (London) 374, 434 (1995)].

- The influence of magnetic ordering on the NiO valence band has been studied by angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. Measurements have been performed at temperatures above and below the Neel temperature (T-N), as well as at room. temperature. The results show temperature dependence but no significant changes in the valence band structure are detected in connection to the passing of T-N. The reported data suggest that the magnetic phase transition does not influence the valence band structure significantly.

- Resonant photoelectron spectroscopy studies have been performed on the NiO valence band at photon energies corresponding to the Ni 2p, 3p, and O 1s absorption thresholds. Strong resonances are seen in the vicinity of the Ni 2P threshold, which confirm earlier conclusions from the weaker resonances seen at the Ni 3p threshold. No valence-band resonance is observed at the O 1s threshold. The analysis of this data confirms the picture of NiO as a strongly correlated charge-transfer insulator by identifying the highest-lying states as being of mainly 3d(8)L final-state character. The existence of localized excited Ni states, as well as the delocalized nature of the O states, are confirmed. Comparisons with the configuration-interaction model and quasiparticle calculations are also made.

Anisotropic breakdown of Fermi liquid quasiparticle excitations in overdoped La2-xSrxCuO4

- High-temperature superconductivity emerges from an un-conventional metallic state. This has stimulated strong efforts to understand exactly how Fermi liquids breakdown and evolve into an un-conventional metal. A fundamental question is how Fermi liquid quasiparticle excitations break down in momentum space. Here we show, using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, that the Fermi liquid quasiparticle excitations of the overdoped superconducting cuprate La1.77Sr0.23CuO4 is highly anisotropic in momentum space. The quasiparticle scattering and residue behave differently along the Fermi surface and hence the Kadowaki-Wood's relation is not obeyed. This kind of Fermi liquid breakdown may apply to a wide range of strongly correlated metal systems where spin fluctuations are present.
