Quasiparticle-like peaks, kinks, and electron-phonon coupling at the ($π$,0) regions in the CMR oxide La$_{2-2x}$Sr$_{1+2x}$Mn$_{2}$O$_{7}$

Abstract

Using Angle-Resolved Photoemission (ARPES), we present the first observation of sharp quasiparticle-like peaks in a CMR manganite. We focus on the ($π$,0) regions of k-space and study their electronic scattering rates and dispersion kinks, uncovering the critical energy scales, momentum scales, and strengths of the interactions that renormalize the electrons. To identify these bosons we measured phonon dispersions in the energy range of the kink by inelastic neutron scattering (INS), finding a good match in both energy and momentum to the oxygen bond-stretching phonons.
