Temperature Evolution of Energy Gap and Band Structure in the Superconducting and Pseudogap States of Bi_(2)Sr_(2)CaCu_(2)O_(8+δ)Superconductor Revealed by Laser-Based Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy

We carry out detailed momentum-dependent and temperature-dependent measurements on Bi_(2)Sr_(2)CaCu_(2)O_(8+δ)(Bi2212)superconductor in the superconducting and pseudogap states by super-high resolution laser-based angleresolved photoemission spectroscopy.The precise determination of the superconducting gap for the nearly optimally doped Bi2212(T_(c)=91 K)at low temperature indicates that the momentum-dependence of the superconducting gap deviates from the standard d-wave form(cos(2Φ)).It can be alternatively fitted by including a high-order term(cos(6Φ))in which the next nearest-neighbor interaction is considered.We find that the band structure near the antinodal region smoothly evolves across the pseudogap temperature without a signature of band reorganization which is distinct from that found in Bi_(2)Sr_(2)CuO_(6+δ)superconductors.This indicates that the band reorganization across the pseudogap temperature is not a universal behavior in cuprate superconductors.These results provide new insights in understanding the nature of the superconducting gap and pseudogap in high-temperature cuprate superconductors.
