“In a nearly-free electron gas, optical absorption may be

viewed as a two-step process. The absorption of the
photon provides the electron with the additional energy it
needs to get to the excited state. The crystal potential
imparts to the electron the additional momentum it
needs to reach the excited state. This momentum
comes in multiples of the reciprocal-lattice vectors G: So
in a reduced zone picture, the transitions are vertical in
wave-vector space. But in photoemission, it is more
useful to think in an extended-zone scheme.”

“In gaseous hydrogen, the equilibrium bond length is dependent on the degree of occupation of that level. The electrons
are dressed by interatomic displacements. The intensities are given by the Franck-Condon factors, the molecular
equivalent of the sudden approximation. The ARPES spectrum of solid hydrogen, developed from the molecular spectrum,
will be angle dependent but for some angle will resemble the broken line. The fundamental transition (0-0) becomes the
solid state quasiparticle peak. The phonon excitations develop into a broad, incoherent quasicontinuum.”

Low energy ARPES is now becoming popular as a new tool for spectroscopy

Higher bulk sensitivity: material specific, depending on relaxations

Advantages: Narrow excitation linewidth: higher energy resolution
Smaller light spot: higher angular resolution

Smaller amount of k-space accessible

 Sudden
approximation
The N-1 system But the projection of final
eigenstates don’t change on initial states does!

Adiabatic Sudden If the sudden approximation breaks down,

the electron will be emitted with the highest
possible kinetic energy and most of its
spectral weight will be in a sharp line since
the incoherent continuum is suppressed).

This does NOT prevent detecting features in

the experiments due to correlation effects,
because the (many-body) eigenstates of the
N-1 particle system remain the same.

However, the ratio of intensity between

coherent and incoherent parts of the spectral
function will change, which WILL prevent a
determination of Z from the evolution of the
spectral weight detected by ARPES.

The intensity changes but not the dispersion!

Intensity I(k,)

Excitation in the solid

Working at high photon energies the electron
is excited in a continuum of high-energy
states; a final state is always available and the
photoemission process can take place (with
intensity still dependent on matrix elements).

At low photon energy photoemission is

affected by the kinematic constrain deriving
from energy and momentum conservation,
and the k-dependent structure of the final
states. For some initial state there is no final
state that can be reached at a given photon
energy and the intensity vanishes.

 Renormalization of Polaronic Quasiparticles

Far from the Migdal limit (<<EF for a parabolic band), the effective coupling parameters deduced from
the renormalization of quasiparticle mass, velocity, and spectral weight are momentum dependent and,
in general, distinct from the true microscopic coupling; the latter is thus not readily accessible in the
quasiparticle dispersion revealed by ARPES through the mass enhancement factor 1/(1+).

Veenstra, Goodvin, Berciu, Damascelli, PRB 82, 012504 (2010)

Renormalization of Polaronic Quasiparticles

Based on the renormalization parameters and the mass

enhancement factor 1/(1+), one can overestimate the true
