Magnetism and spin-orbit coupling are two quintessential ingredients underlying topological transport phenomena in itinerant ferromagnets. When spin-polarized bands support nodal points/lines with band degeneracy that can be lifted by spin-orbit coupling, the nodal structures become a source of Berry curvature, leading to a large anomalous Hall effect. However, two-dimensional systems can possess stable nodal structures only when proper crystalline symmetry exists.

SiO is a commonly used insulation layer for QCLs but has high absorption peak around 8 to 10 µm. Instead of SiO, we used YO as an insulation layer for DC-QCL and successfully demonstrated lasing operation at the wavelength around 8.1 µm.

AgPbO has attracted attentions due to its novel nearly-free-electron superconductivity, but its electronic structure and orbital character of the Cooper-pair electrons remain controversial. Here, we present a method utilizing core-level photoemission to show that Pb 6s electrons dominate near the Fermi level. We observe a strongly asymmetric Pb 4 f core-level spectrum, while a Ag 3d spectrum is well explained by two symmetric peaks.

Recently, α-RuCl has attracted much attention as a possible material to realize the honeycomb Kitaev model of a quantum-spin-liquid state. Although the magnetic properties of α-RuCl have been extensively studied, its electronic structure, which is strongly related to its Kitaev physics, is poorly understood. Here, the electronic structure of α-RuCl was investigated by photoemission (PE) and inverse-photoemission (IPE) spectroscopies.

The range of mechanically cleavable Van der Waals crystals covers materials with diverse physical and chemical properties. However, very few of these materials exhibit magnetism or magnetic order, and thus the provision of cleavable magnetic compounds would supply invaluable building blocks for the design of heterostructures assembled from Van der Waals crystals. Here we report the first successful isolation of monolayer and few-layer samples of the compound nickel phosphorus trisulfide (NiPS3) by mechanical exfoliation.

Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) study of a layered electride Ca2N was carried out to reveal its quasi-two-dimensional electronic structure. The band dispersions and the Fermi-surface map are consistent with the density functional theory results except for a chemical potential shift that may originate from the high reactivity of surface excess electrons. Thus, the existence of anionic excess electrons in the interlayer region of Ca2N is strongly supported by ARPES.
