We have investigated the shifts of the core-level photoemission spectra of La$_{0.6}$Sr$_{0.4}$MnO$_3$ thin films grown on three kinds of substrates, SrTiO$_3$, (LaAlO$_3$)$_{0.3}$-(SrAl$_{0.5}$Ta$_{0.5}$O$_3$)$_{0.7}$, and LaAlO$_3$. The…
We investigate the adsorption of a Ni monolayer on the $\beta$-SiC(001) surface by means of highly precise first-principles all-electron FLAPW calculations. Total energy calculations for the Si- and C-terminated surfaces reveal high Ni-SiC…
We performed broadband optical transmission measurements of Bi2Se3 and In-doped Bi(1-x)In(x)2Se3 thin films, where in the latter the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) strength can be tuned by introducing In. Drude and interband transitions exhibit…
We report hard x-ray photoemission spectroscopy measurements of the electronic structure of the prototypical correlated oxide SrxCa1-xVO3. By comparing spectra recorded at different excitation energies, we show that 2.2 keV photoelectrons…
The (001)SrTiO3 crystal surface can be engineered to display a self-organized pattern of well-separated and nearly pure single-terminated SrO and TiO2 regions by high temperature annealing in oxidizing atmosphere. By using surface sensitive…
Recent photoemission spectra of the perovskite series Sr$_x$Ca$_{1-x}$VO$_3$ revealed strong modifications associated with surface contributions. To study the effect of Coulomb correlations in the bulk and at the surface the quasi-particle…
Topological insulators are bulk semiconductors that manifest in-gap massless Dirac surface states due to the topological bulk-boundary correspondence principle [1-3]. These surface states have been a subject of tremendous ongoing interest,…
We investigated the electronic properties of the topological insulator Bi$_{2}$Te$_{3}$ by scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy at low temperature. We obtained high-resolution quasiparticle interference data of the topological…
The evolution of electron correlation in Sr$_{x}$Ca$_{1-x}$VO$_3$ has been studied using a combination of bulk-sensitive resonant soft x-ray emission spectroscopy (RXES), surface-sensitive photoemission spectroscopy (PES), and ab initio…
Photoemission spectra of the perovskites Ca$_x$Sr$_{1-x}$VO$_3$, Ca$_x$La$_{1-x}$VO$_3$, and SrRuO$_3$ indicate that Coulomb correlations are more pronounced at the surface than in the bulk. To investigate this effect we use the dynamical…
The band inversion in topological phase matters bring exotic physical properties such as the emergence of a topologically protected surface states. They strongly influence the surface electronic structures of the investigated materials and…
Ab initio calculations and angle-resolved photoemission experiments show that the bulk and surface electronic structure of Weyl semimetal candidate MoTe$_2$ changes significantly by tuning the chemical potential by less than 0.4 eV.…
Recent photoemission experiments have shown strong surface modifications in the spectra from vanadium oxides as (V,Cr)_2O_3 or (Sr,Ca)VO_3. The effective mass is enhanced at the surface and the coherent part of the surface spectrum is…
Surface alloying can alter surface electronic and magnetic properties, which are key parameters when developing new materials tailored for specific applications. A magnetic surface alloy was formed by depositing Sb on Ni(111) at elevated…
The dispersion of topological surface bands in MnBi$_2$Te$_4$-based magnetic topological insulator heterostructures is strongly affected by band hybridization and is spatially inhomogeneous due to varying surface layer terminations on…
Structural stability and electronic properties of alkaline-earth metals (Ca, Sr, Ba) induced Si(111)-3x2 surfaces have been comprehensively studied by means of ab initio calculations. Adsorption energy and charge density difference…
The ground state of Sn/Si(111) and Sn/Ge(111) surface $\alpha$-phases is reexamined theoretically, based on $ab-initio$ calculations where correlations are approximately included through the orbital dependence of the Coulomb interaction (in…
We present a systematic theoretical investigation of the surface properties, stability and reactivity, of rock-salt type alkaline-earth metal oxides including MgO, CaO, SrO, and BaO. The accuracy of commonly used exchange-correlation…
The bulk band structure of the topological insulator \sbte~ is investigated by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Of particular interest is the dispersion of the uppermost valence band with respect to the topological surface state…
We present the results of calculations of surface relaxations, energetics, and bonding properties for CaTiO3 (001) and (011) surfaces using a hybrid B3PW description of exchange and correlation. We consider both CaO and TiO2 terminations of…
