Here, we report the first time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (TR-ARPES) with the new Fermiologics "FeSuMa" analyzer. The new experimental setup has been commissioned at the Artemis laboratory of the UK Central Laser Facility. We explain here some of the advantages of the FeSuMa for TR-ARPES and discuss how its capabilities relate to those of hemispherical analyzers and momentum microscopes.

An essential ingredient for the production of Majorana fermions for use in quantum computing is topological superconductivity. As bulk topological superconductors remain elusive, the most promising approaches exploit proximity-induced superconductivity, making systems fragile and difficult to realize. Due to their intrinsic topology, Weyl semimetals are also potential candidates, but have always been connected with bulk superconductivity, leaving the possibility of intrinsic superconductivity of their topological surface states, the Fermi arcs, practically without attention, even from the theory side.

Fermi surfaces are essential for predicting, characterizing and controlling the properties of crystalline metals and semiconductors. Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is the only technique directly probing the Fermi surface by measuring the Fermi momenta (k) from energy- and angular distribution of photoelectrons dislodged by monochromatic light. Existing apparatus is able to determine a number of k -vectors simultaneously, but direct high-resolution 3D Fermi surface mapping remains problematic.

The entanglement of charge density wave (CDW), superconductivity, and topologically nontrivial electronic structure has recently been discovered in the kagome metal AV_{3}Sb_{5} (A=K, Rb, Cs) family. With high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we study the electronic properties of CDW and superconductivity in CsV_{3}Sb_{5}. The spectra around K[over ¯] is found to exhibit a peak-dip-hump structure associated with two separate branches of dispersion, demonstrating the isotropic CDW gap opening below E_{F}.

Article Synopsis
  • Spectroscopic detection of Dirac and Weyl fermions in materials is important for both practical applications and linking high-energy physics with condensed-matter physics.
  • While Dirac and noncentrosymmetric Weyl fermions are well-known, magnetic Weyl semimetals have not been directly detected until now.
  • Researchers designed new materials, specifically YbMnBi, and provided experimental evidence supporting its unique time-reversal symmetry breaking and identification of Weyl points, paving the way for advancements in materials with exotic properties.
