Hole-doped high-temperature cuprate superconductors below optimum doping have small electron-like Fermi surfaces occupying a small fraction of the Brillouin zone. There is strong evidence that this is linked to charge density wave (CDW)…

In underdoped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$, there is evidence of a small Fermi surface pocket subject to substantial mass enhancement in the doping regime $ 0.12<p<0.16$. This mass enhancement may vary substantially over the Fermi surface, due to…
The metallic state of the underdoped high-Tc cuprates has remained an enigma: How may seemingly disconnected Fermi surface segments, observed in zero magnetic field as a result of the opening of a partial gap (the pseudogap), possess…
After the significant discovery of the hole-doped nickelate compound Nd$_{0.8}$Sr$_{0.2}$NiO$_2$, an analysis of the electronic structure, orbital components, Fermi surfaces and band topology could be helpful to understand the mechanism of…
Ordinary doping by electrons (holes) generally means that the Fermi level shifts towards the conduction band (valence band) and that the conductivity of free carriers increases. Recently, however, some peculiar doping characteristics were…
We observe apparent hole pockets in the Fermi surfaces of single-layer Bi-based cuprate superconductors from angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES). From detailed low-energy electron diffraction measurements and an analysis of the ARPES…
We use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) to investigate the electronic properties of the newly discovered iron-arsenic superconductor, Ba(1-x)K(x)Fe2As2 and non-supercondcuting BaFe2As2. Our study indicates that the Fermi…
High magnetic fields have revealed a surprisingly small Fermi-surface in underdoped cuprates, possibly resulting from Fermi-surface reconstruction due to an order parameter that breaks translational symmetry of the crystal lattice. A…
We show, by use of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, that underdoped Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+\delta} appears to have a large Fermi surface centered at (\pi,\pi), even for samples with a T_c as low as 15 K. No clear evidence of a Fermi…

Novel imaging methods show that the mobile dopants in optimum doped La$_2$CuO$_{4+y}$ (LCO) get self-organized, instead of randomly distributed. Rigid-band models fail because of ordering of dopants and supercell calculations are required…
Motivated by quantum oscillations observed in highly ordered ortho-II YBa_2Cu_3O_6.5, we study the Fermi surface topology of d-density wave (ddw) or antiferromagnetic (AF) ordering in the presence of the ortho-II potential. We find that the…
Charge density-wave order has been observed in cuprate superconductors whose crystal structure breaks the square symmetry of the CuO2 planes, such as orthorhombic YBa2Cu3Oy (YBCO), but not so far in cuprates that preserve that symmetry,…
