Article Synopsis
  • Strong electron repulsion in solids can lead to a phenomenon called the "Mott" metal-to-insulator transition (MIT), where electrons transform from a mobile to a localized state.
  • Understanding this transition has been difficult for over 50 years due to challenges in observing both electronic states.
  • Researchers used angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) to demonstrate that in vanadium oxide (VO), increasing temperature causes the itinerant conduction band to vanish while a quasi-localized state shifts to higher binding energies.
