Abstract

As a homologue to the new, Fe-based type of high-temperature superconductors, the electronic structure of the heavy-fermion compound CeFePO was studied by means of angle-resolved resonant photoemission. It was experimentally found—and later on confirmed by local-density approximation (LDA) as well as dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) calculations—that the Ce 4f states hybridize to the Fe 3d states of d3z2−r2 symmetry near the Fermi level that discloses their participation in the occurring electron-correlation phenomena and provides insight into mechanism of superconductivity in oxopnictides.
