Ds. Dessau et al., EVOLUTION OF THE ELECTRONIC-STRUCTURE WITH DOPING IN BI2SR2CACU2O8- ANGLE-RESOLVED PHOTOEMISSION RESULTS(DELTA ), Journal of electron spectroscopy and related phenomena, 78, 1996, pp. 167-170
We present experimental results showing that the electronic strucure o
f the high Tc cuprate superconductors evolves from having large pieces
of Fermi surface (FS) at high doping levels to small pieces of FS cen
tered at (pi/2,pi/2) at low doping levels. The dramatic change in the
FS occurs with only subtle changes in the electronic structure, which
occur mostly near the (pi,0) point of the Brillouin zone. We suggest t
hat this evolution is intimately related to the evolution of the antif
erromagnetic (AF) order with doping.
