An angle-resolved photoemission study of a ZrN0.93 (110) single crystal is reported. Off-normal spectra recorded using unpolarized Ne I and He I resonance radiation are presented and the determined experimental peak dispersion are compraed with possible direct transitions calculated for ZrN1.0. The results show that dominant emission peaks at these photon energies probably are one-dimensional density of states features, i.e., peaks originating from band extrema. A peak observed at about 2eV below the Fermi energy is interpreted as originating from occupied vacancy states.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
