Abstract

The electronic properties and the crystal structure of layered perovskite-related niobates Sr1-yLayNbO3.5-x can be tuned by gradually changing the oxygen stoichiometry. We have studied the electronic structure of this series in detail by angle-integrated and angle-resolved (ARPES) photoemission and x-ray absorption (NEXAFS) on SrNbO3.45 and La0.1Sr0.9NbO3.39 single crystals. ARPES shows a one-dimensional dispersion and a purely one-dimensional Fermi surface with a nesting vector 2kF=0.56Å−1. A strongly anisotropic electronic character appears in polarization-dependent O 1s NEXAFS as well. Local-density approximation (LDA) band-structure calculations support this dispersion behavior of the lowest-lying conduction band and find additional Fermi surface sheets with a more two-dimensional character.
