ABSTRACTThe relation between chemical potential and Seebeck coefficient was investigated by using high-resolution angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The temperature dependence of chemical potential was experimentally determined for the n-type TiS2 thermoelectric material and compared with the measured Seebeck coefficient. We found that the temperature dependence of chemical potential of TiS2 is significantly large, and its effect on Seebeck coefficient is not negligible. This fact strongly indicates that the temperature dependence of chemical potential has to be properly understood to construct the guiding principle for developing new, practical thermoelectric materials.

Abstract The nematic phase in iron based superconductors (IBSs) has attracted attention with a notion that it may provide important clue to the superconductivity. A series of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) studies were performed to understand the origin of the nematic phase. However, there is lack of ARPES study on LaFeAsO nematic phase. Here, we report the results of ARPES studies of the nematic phase in LaFeAsO. Degeneracy breaking between the $$d_{xz}$$ d xz and $$d_{yz}$$ d yz hole bands near the $$\Gamma$$ Γ and M point is observed in the nematic phase. Different temperature dependent band splitting behaviors are observed at the $$\Gamma$$ Γ and M points. The energy of the band splitting near the M point decreases as the temperature decreases while it has little temperature dependence near the $$\Gamma$$ Γ point. The nematic nature of the band shift near the M point is confirmed through a detwin experiment using a piezo device. Since a momentum dependent splitting behavior has been observed in other iron based superconductors, our observation confirms that the behavior is a universal one among iron based superconductors.
