Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of a Fermi-Hubbard system

Abstract
Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measures the single-particle excitations of a many-body quantum system with both energy and momentum resolution, providing detailed information about strongly interacting materials. ARPES is a direct probe of fermion pairing, and hence a natural technique to study the development of superconductivity in a variety of experimental systems ranging from high temperature superconductors to unitary Fermi gases. In these systems a remnant gap-like feature persists in the normal state, which is referred to as a pseudogap. A quantitative understanding of pseudogap regimes may elucidate details about the pairing mechanisms that lead to superconductivity, but developing this is difficult in real materials partly because the microscopic Hamiltonian is not known. Here we report on the development of ARPES to study strongly interacting fermions in an optical lattice using a quantum gas microscope. We benchmark the technique by measuring the occupied single-particle spectral function of an attractive Fermi-Hubbard system across the BCS-BEC crossover and comparing to quantum Monte Carlo calculations. We find evidence for a pseudogap in our system that opens well above the expected critical temperature for superfluidity. This technique may also be applied to the doped repulsive Hubbard model which is expected to exhibit a pseudogap at temperatures close to those achieved in recent experiments.
