摘要
The electronic structure of the new superconductor SmO1-xFxFeAs (x = 0.15) is studied by angle-integrated photoemission spectroscopy. Our data show a sharp feature very close to the Fermi energy, and a relative fiat distribution of the density of states between 0.5eV and 3eV binding energy, which agrees well with the band structure calculations considering an antiferromagnetic ground state. No noticeable gap opening is observed at 12 K below the superconducting transition temperature, indicating the existence of large ungapped regions in the Brillouin zone.
