In crystalline materials, electron-phonon coupling (EPC) is a ubiquitous many-body interaction that drives conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer superconductivity. Recently, in new kagome metal $\rm{CsV_3Sb_5}$, superconductivity possibly intertwines with time-reversal and spatial symmetry-breaking orders observed. Density functional theory calculations predicted weak EPC strength,$\lambda$, supporting an unconventional pairing mechanism $\rm{CsV_3Sb_5}$. However, experimental determination...

Ultrashort light pulses can selectively excite charges, spins, and phonons in materials, providing a powerful approach for manipulating their properties. Here we use femtosecond laser to coherently manipulate the electron phonon distributions, couplings, charge-density wave (CDW) material 1T-TaSe2 After exciting with pulse, fast spatial smearing of laser-excited electrons launches coherent lattice breathing mode, which turn modulates temperature. This finding is contrast all previous...

Landau's Fermi liquid theory offers a profound understanding of conduction electrons in metals. However, many strongly correlated materials, including heavy-fermions, cuprates, iron-based superconductors, and nickelates, exhibit non-Fermi (NFL) behavior. A hallmark is the strange metal state, characterized by linear-in-temperature resistivity linear-in-energy single-particle decay rate. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy measurements, we systematically investigate electron-doped...

Abstract The charge density wave (CDW) state is a ubiquitous ordered phase in condensed matter systems, characterized by periodic modulation of the electronic density. In many CDW materials, superconductivity (SC) emerges close proximity to, or coexists with, phase, offering valuable platform to explore interplay between these two competing orders. ZrTe 3-x Se x family provides an ideal system for investigating this interplay, as both CDW-dominated and superconductivity-dominated end members...

Abstract The iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) have recently emerged as a promising single-material Majorana platform by hosting isolated zero modes (MZMs) at relatively high temperatures. To further verify its nature and move forward to build topological quantum qubits, it is highly desirable achieve tunability for MZMs on homogeneous FeSCs. Here, with an in-situ strain device, we can controllably create the surface of stoichiometric superconductor LiFeAs altering chemical potential....

Charge density wave (CDW) order is an emergent quantum phase that characterized by periodic lattice distortion and charge modulation, often present near superconducting transitions. Here, we uncover a novel inverted CDW state using femtosecond laser to coherently reverse the star-of-David in 1T-TaSe2. We track signature of this time- angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy time-dependent functional theory validate it associated with unique arrangement never before realized. The dynamic...

In the recently discovered kagome superconductor AV3Sb5 (A = K, Rb, and Cs), superconductivity is intertwined with an unconventional charge density wave order. Its pairing symmetry remains elusive owing to lack of direct measurement superconducting gap in momentum space. this letter, utilizing laser-based ultra-high-resolution low-temperature angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we observe anisotropic Cooper CsV3Sb5. We detect a highly structure anisotropy over 80% maximum along V-V...

The cuprate superconductors distinguish themselves from the conventional in that a small variation carrier doping can significantly change superconducting transition temperature (T_c), giving rise to dome where pseudogap (ref. 1,2) emerges underdoped region and Fermi liquid appears overdoped region. Thus systematic study of properties over wide range is critical for understanding mechanism. Here, we report new technique continuously dope surface Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+x through an ozone/vacuum...

Spin-helical Dirac Fermions at a doped topological insulator's boundaries can support Majorana quasiparticles when coupled with s-wave superconductors, but in n-doped systems, the requisite induced Cooper pairing states is often buried heterointerfaces or complicated by degenerate coupling bulk conduction carriers. Rarely probed are p-doped structures nondegenerate and valence bands Fermi level, which may foster long-range superconductivity without sacrificing physics. Using...

Abstract The newly discovered kagome superconductors represent a promising platform for investigating the quantum interplay between band topology, electronic order, and lattice geometry. Despite extensive research efforts on this system, nature of superconducting ground state remains elusive. In particular, consensus electron pairing symmetry has not been achieved so far, in part owing to lack momentum-resolved measurement gap structure. Here we report direct observation nodeless, nearly...

We present a phenomenological Green's function to characterize the superconducting and pseudogap phases of cuprates based on microscopic theory doped Mott insulators. In this framework, “Fermi-arc” “kink” phenomena observed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments in phase can be systematically explained as doping, which are further connected two-gap feature with dichotomy between nodal antinodal physics. demonstrate that phase-string-induced fractionalization plays key role...

Abstract Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements have established the phenomenon of kink in band dispersion high- T c cuprate superconductors. However, systematic studies electron-doped cuprates are still lacking experimentally. We performed situ ARPES on La 2− x Ce CuO 4±δ (LCCO) thin films over a wide electron doping ( n ) range from 0.05 to 0.23. While nodal is nearly invisible, an antinodal around 45 meV, surviving above 200 K, observed for ~ 0.05–0.19, whose...
