Photoemission in the High Tc Superconductors
arXiv:cond-mat/0209476
Abstract
We review angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) results on the high Tc superconductors, focusing primarily on results obtained on the quasi-two dimensional cuprate Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 and its single layer counterpart Bi2Sr2CuO6. The topics treated include the basics of photoemission and methodologies for analyzing spectra, normal state electronic structure including the Fermi surface, the superconducting energy gap, the normal state pseudogap, and the electron self-energy as determined from photoemission lineshapes.
