By deposition of a 1/3 ML of Tellurium on M(111) surfaces (M=Cu,Ag) a (√3×√3)-R30 superstructure in M2Te stoichiometry is formed whereby every third M-atom is replaced by a Te-atom. This type of substitutional surface alloys is very well known as a model system for large Rashba-type spin-orbit splittings.
We investigated the surface band structure of M2Te/M(111) by means of one- and two-photon photoelectron spectroscopy and compare our photoemission data to density functional theory (DFT) band structure calculations. For both substrates two fully occupied hole-like bands are found. We assign these to Te induced spz- and pxpy-states. Our ARPES data shows strong indications for a Rashba-type spin splitting with a Rashba parameter of about 2 eVÅ for the Ag2Te spz-state. Interestingly this value is much larger than that for Sb which has a similar atomic SOC. This manifests the influence of the atomic structure on the Rashba spin splitting. Besides a series of image-potential-resonances 2PPE shows Te-induced unoccupied states in good agreement with DFT calculations.
