摘要
The three-dimensional electronic structure and the nature of Ce 4f electrons of the Kondo insulator CeRu_(4)Sn_(6)are investigated by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy,utilizing tunable photon energies.Our results reveal(i)the three-dimensional k-space nature of the Fermi surface,(ii)the localized-to-itinerant transition of f electrons occurs at a much high temperature than the hybridization gap opening temperature,and(iii)the“relocalization”of itinerant f-electrons below 25 K,which could be the precursor to the establishment of magnetic order.
