Antinodal kink in the band dispersion of electron-doped cuprate ${\mathrm{La}}_{2-x}{\mathrm{Ce}}_x{\mathrm{CuO}}_{4\pm \delta }$

Abstract

Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements have established the phenomenon of kink in band dispersion of high-$T_{\mathrm{c}}$ cuprate superconductors. However, systematic studies of the kink in electron-doped cuprates are still lacking experimentally. We performed $in$-$situ$ ARPES measurements on ${\mathrm{La}}_{2-x}{\mathrm{Ce}}_x{\mathrm{CuO}}_{4\pm \delta }$ (LCCO) thin films over a wide electron doping ($n$) range from 0.05 to 0.23. While the nodal kink is nearly invisible, an antinodal kink around 45 meV, surviving above 200 K, is observed for $n\sim 0.05-0.19$, whose position is roughly independent of doping. The fact that the antinodal kink observed at high temperatures and in the highly overdoped region favors the phonon mechanism with contributions from the Cu-O bond-stretching mode and the out-of-plane oxygen buckling mode. Our results also suggest that the antinodal kink of LCCO is only weakly coupled to its superconductivity.
