K. Nakayama 교수의 연구실은 고해상도 역방향 광전자방출분광법(ARPES)을 핵심 도구로 사용하여, 페라이드계 초전도체, 카그롬 메탈, 톱올로지컬 인산화물 등 다양한 양자물질의 전자 구조를 정밀하게 탐색하고 있습니다. 주요 연구 방향은 초전도성, 전자 구조의 비등방성, 전자 위상 상태 등에서 나타나는 전자상태의 기원과 상전이를 밝히는 데 초점이 맞춰져 있습니다. 특히 전자 위상 물질에서의 표면 상태, 초전도 티어의 쌍극자 구조, 전자 구조의 비대칭성 등에 대한 깊은 통찰을 제공하고 있습니다.

We have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on an FeSe superconductor (T_{c}∼8 K), which exhibits a tetragonal-to-orthorhombic structural transition at T_{s}∼90 K. At low temperature, we found splitting of the energy bands as large as 50 meV at the M point in the Brillouin zone, likely caused by the formation of electronically driven nematic states. This band splitting persists up to T∼110 K, slightly above T_{s}, suggesting that the structural transition is trigg
We have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on the optimally-doped Ba$_{0.6}$K$_{0.4}$Fe$_2$As$_2$ compound and determined the accurate momentum dependence of the superconducting (SC) gap in four Fermi-surface sheets including a newly discovered outer electron pocket at the M point. The SC gap on this pocket is nearly isotropic and its magnitude is comparable ($\Delta$ $\sim$ 11 meV) to that of the inner electron and hole pockets ($\sim$12 meV), although it is sub
Kagome metals $A{\mathrm{V}}_{3}{\mathrm{Sb}}_{5}$ ($A=\mathrm{K}$, Rb, and Cs) exhibit superconductivity at 0.9--2.5 K and charge-density wave (CDW) at 78--103 K. Key electronic states associated with the CDW and superconductivity remain elusive. Here, we investigate low-energy excitations of ${\mathrm{CsV}}_{3}{\mathrm{Sb}}_{5}$ by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We found an energy gap of 50--70 meV at the Dirac-crossing points of linearly dispersive bands, pointing to an importance
We have performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of the iron-chalcogenide superconductor Fe1.03Te0.7Se0.3 to investigate the electronic structure relevant to superconductivity. We observed a holelike Fermi surface (FS) and an electronlike FS at the Brillouin zone center and corner, respectively, which are nearly nested by the Q∼(π,π) wave vector. We do not find evidence for the nesting instability with Q∼(π+δ,0) reminiscent of the antiferromagnetic order in the parent compound Fe1+yTe
We have performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on the overdoped Ba${}_{0.3}$K${}_{0.7}$Fe${}_{2}$As${}_{2}$ superconductor (${T}_{c}=22$ K). We demonstrate that the superconducting (SC) gap on each Fermi surface (FS) is nearly isotropic whereas the gap value varies from 4.4 to 7.9 meV on different FSs. By comparing with under- and optimally doped Ba${}_{1\ensuremath{-}x}$K${}_{x}$Fe${}_{2}$As${}_{2}$, we find that the gap value on each FS nearly scales with ${T}_{c}$ over a wide dop
We have performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on (PbSe)(5)(Bi(2)Se(3))(3m), which forms a natural multilayer heterostructure consisting of a topological insulator and an ordinary insulator. For m=2, we observed a gapped Dirac-cone state within the bulk band gap, suggesting that the topological interface states are effectively encapsulated by block layers; furthermore, it was found that the quantum confinement effect of the band dispersions of Bi(2)Se(3) layers enhances the effectiv
We have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) on trigonal tellurium consisting of helical chains in the crystal. Through the band-structure mapping in the three-dimensional Brillouin zone, we found a definitive evidence for the band splitting originating from the chiral nature of crystal. A direct comparison of the band dispersion between the ARPES results and the first-principles band-structure calculations suggests the presence of Weyl nodes and tiny spin-
We have performed an ultrahigh-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study of slightly overdoped (Bi,Pb)2Sr2CuO6 to elucidate the origin of the pseudogap. By using a newly developed xenon-plasma light source, we determined the comprehensive momentum and temperature dependencies of the superconducting gap and the pseudogap. We found that the antinodal pseudogap persists far above the superconducting transition temperature and is smoothly connected to the nodal gap. The characterist
We have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy on $\mathrm{Y}{\mathrm{Ba}}_{2}{\mathrm{Cu}}_{3}{\mathrm{O}}_{7\ensuremath{-}\ensuremath{\delta}}$ (Y123; $\ensuremath{\delta}=0.06$; ${T}_{\mathrm{c}}=92\phantom{\rule{0.3em}{0ex}}\mathrm{K}$). By accurately determining the Fermi surface and energy band dispersion, we solve long-standing controversial issues as to the anomalous electronic states of Y-based high-${T}_{\mathrm{c}}$ cuprates. We unambiguously identified su
Dosing cesium atoms on the surface of CsV${}_{3}$Sb${}_{5}$ suppresses the charge-density wave that typically coexists with its superconductivity, paving the way to understanding the interplay between these two phenomena.
