W(110) and Ta(110): A Playground for Spin-Orbit-Induced Effects on Surface States — •H. Wortelen1, K. Miyamoto2, H. Mirhosseini3, B. Engelkamp1, A.B. Schmidt1, J. Henk4, and M.

The influence of spin-orbit effects on the surface electronic structure of W(110) and Ta(110) was investigated with spin- and angle-resolved photoemission and inverse photoemission experiments and electronic-structure calculations. We present a comprehensive E(k) picture of the electronic states and their spin texture in the occupied and unoccupied regime.

Tungsten and tantalum, direct neighbors in the periodic table, exhibit a very similar electronic structure, yet with a shifted Fermi energy due to the one electron difference. Both elements exhibit a bcc crystal structure, however, with different lattice parameters resulting in differently pronounced hybridization of surface and bulk bands. As a consequence, a Dirac-cone-like surface state, reminiscent of a topological surface state, observed for W(110) below EF [1,2] has no apparent equivalent on Ta(110), although it is expected above EF [3]. Furthermore, a Rashba-split dz2 surface state appears on Ta(110) [4], which has no equivalent on W(110).
