H. Kumigashira et al., HIGH-RESOLUTION ANGLE-RESOLVED PHOTOEMISSION-STUDY OF CEP - NARROW-BAND FORMATION OF 4F ELECTRONS, Physical review. B, Condensed matter, 55(6), 1997, pp. 3355-3357
High-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy at low tempe
rature has been performed on the low-carrier Kondo material CeP. It wa
s found that the p-f bonding state with a dominant 4f character exhibi
ts a finite-energy dispersion of about 40 meV along the TX direction i
n the Brillouin zone. This implies that 4f electrons in CeP form a nar
row band owing to the strong anisotropic p-f and d-f mixing.
