Surface Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid state on Bi/InSb(001)

arXiv:1504.04081 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.115.256404

Abstract

A 1D metallic surface state was created on an anisotropic InSb(001) surface covered with Bi. Angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (ARPES) showed a 1D Fermi contour with almost no 2D distortion. Close to the Fermi level (), the angle-integrated photoelectron spectra showed power-law scaling with the binding energy and temperature. The ARPES plot above obtained thanks to thermally broadened Fermi edge at room temperature showed a 1D state with continuous metallic dispersion across and power-law intensity suppression around . These results strongly suggest a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid on the Bi/InSb(001) surface.
