Abstract

We report high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (HR ARPES) on single-crystal UPt3 together with a full-potential linearized augmented-plane-wave band-structure calculation for comparison. The experimental results show a narrow dispersionless U 5f band at EF and highly dispersive Pt 5d bands at higher binding energies. The observed U 5f band shows a systematic intensity variation in accordance with the crystal momentum, but is much narrower than the calculation, while the Pt 5d bands show a good quantitative agreement between the experiment and calculation. The present HR-ARPES observation suggests a substantial renormalization effect of the U 5f band due to the strong correlation.
