Termination dependence of the surface states in Pb${}_2$Pd

Abstract

Topological properties of systems lead to the emergence of surface states which can be observed experimentally within the angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements. Recently, the topological properties of Pb${}_2$Pd were reported. In this paper, we discuss the role of the surface termination on the realized surface states. We discuss the termination dependence of the surface state for (001) and (110) surface. We demonstrate that the Pd terminated (001) surface allow realization of the Dirac cone-like surface state. In the case (110) we observe well visible surface states with parabolic-like dispersion relation in close vicinity of the Fermi level.
