The isotropic Compton profile of europium, the most reactive lanthanide, has been measured at a resolution of 0.40 a.u. using 661.65 keV gamma-rays. In the absence of a band structure-based Compton profile, the experimental data are compared with renormalised-free-atom (RFA) and free electron models. It is seen that the RFA model with e−-e− correlation agrees better with the experiment than the free electron models. The first derivatives of the Compton profiles show the hybridization effects of s-, p-, d-, f-electrons. From our RFA data we have also computed the cohesive energy of europium.

We have studied the energy band structure of polydiacetylenes (PDAs) using the extensional Hückel Hamiltonian that includes the nonnearest-neighbor hopping interactions. The results show that with increase in the nonnearest-neighbor hopping interaction parameters ρ1 and ρ2, (i) the energy band symmetry is broken and the energy gap 2Δ has changed, (ii) the locations and the widths of energy bands have changed and their shifts depend mainly on ρ1 (next-neighbor hopping interactions), and (iii) the energy gap 2Δ depends mainly on ρ2 (third-neighbor hopping interactions), the effects of the nonnearest-neighbor hopping interaction on the band structure are discussed.

ABSTRACTA systematic study of the band-to-band optical transitions in commensurate strainedlayer superlattices of Ge and Si grown on (001) Si substrates show the presence of new electronic energy bands. Our measurements suggest that superlattice structure on the same scale as the unit cell results in a band structure significantly different from that of a random alloy.

ABSTRACTWe have studied the fc-dependent electronic structure of the layered colossal magnetoresistive manganite La1.2Sr1.8Mn2O7 using high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. We found dispersive energy bands as a function of the crystal momentum k near the Fermi level (EF). We have also performed local spin density approximation (LSDA)+U band-structure calculations on the current system. The overall experimental dispersion relation is basically in agreement with the band-structure calculations yet close to EF there is a significant deviation from the predicted dispersions. Instead of clear Fermi-surface (FS) crossings, we observe a depression of the features as the FS is approached as if there is a “pseudo” gap in the excitation spectrum. The pseudogap continuously opens with temperature and does not show further significant opening above Tc, corresponding to the metal-insulator transition. Those unusual aspects of the spectra has been discussed from the viewpoint of the strong electron-lattice coupling model.
