Abstract:
Using high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we studied the surface state of Ta3SiTe6, a candidate of topological semimetal protected by nonsymmorphic symmetry. Through photon-energy dependent measurements, the surface state near the Fermi level was detected. By determining the band dispersions, we found that the surface state is topological trivial. Around the surface Brillouin zone center, the surface bands disperse linear-like, forming a band crossing (zero energy gap) point at about 0.2 eV below the Fermi level. In Ta3SiTe6's rectangular surface Brillouin zone, the surface bands only cross the Fermi level along one axis, forming two hole-like Fermi pockets near surface Brillouin zone boundaries. Although the observed surface state is not topological, we proposed that its anisotropic Fermi surface topography could be potentially useful for future applications.
