Structure and Correlation Effects in Semiconducting SrTiO${}_3$

Abstract

We have investigated the effects of structure change and electron correlation on SrTiO${}_3$ single crystals using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We show that the cubic to tetragonal phase transition at 105${}^{\circ }$K is manifested by a charge transfer from in-plane ($d_{yz}$ and $d_{zx}$) bands to out-of-plane ($d_{xy}$) band, which is opposite to the theoretical predictions. Along this second-order phase transition, we find a smooth evolution of the quasiparticle strength and effective masses. The in-plane band exhibits a peak-dip-hump lineshape, indicating a high degree of correlation on a relatively large (170 meV) energy scale, which is attributed to the polaron formation.
