Kondo Hybridization and the Origin of Metallic States at the (001) Surface of SmB6

Year: 2013

Type: article

Abstract: Whether SmB${}_{6}$ is a true Kondo insulator has been a 40-year-old puzzle, as its unexpected finite low-temperature electric conductance defies that simple stereotyping. Using angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy, scientists find an important piece of the puzzle in the material's electronic band structure, including the signature of topological surface conducting states.
