Kondo interaction in FeTe and its potential role in the magnetic order
Finding d-electron heavy fermion states has been an important topic as the diversity in d-electron materials can lead to many exotic Kondo effect-related phenomena or new states of matter such as correlation-driven topological Kondo insulator. Yet, obtaining direct spectroscopic evidence for a d-electron heavy fermion system has been elusive to date. Here, we report the observation of Kondo lattice behavior in an antiferromagnetic metal, FeTe, via angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, scanning tunneling spectroscopy and transport property measurements. The Kondo lattice behavior is represented by the emergence of a sharp quasiparticle and Fano-type tunneling spectra at low temperatures. The transport property measurements confirm the low-temperature Fermi liquid behavior and reveal successive coherent-incoherent crossover upon increasing temperature. We interpret the Kondo lattice behavior as a result of hybridization between localized Fe 3d xy and itinerant Te 5p z orbitals. Our observations strongly suggest unusual cooperation between Kondo lattice behavior and long-range magnetic order.

Strain-controlled evolution of electronic structure indicating topological phase transition in the quasi-one-dimensional superconductor TaSe 3
In this work, we report the signature of a strain-controlled topological phase transition in the electronic structure of a quasione-dimensional superconductor TaSe 3 . Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and first-principles calculation, TaSe 3 is identified to be in a weak topological insulator phase which has topologically nontrivial surface states only at the allowed planes. Under uniaxial tensile strain, a Dirac point and the topological surface state emerge on the originally forbidden ($10\overline{1}$) plane, which demonstrates the transition to a strong topological insulator phase. Our results accomplish the experimental realization of possible topological insulating phases in TaSe 3 and highlight the possibility of coupling the superconductivity with two distinct topological insulating phases in a controllable manner.

Effect of the sample work function on alkali metal dosing induced electronic structure change
Alkali metal dosing (AMD) has been widely used as a way to control doping without chemical substitution. This technique, in combination with angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), often provides an opportunity to observe unexpected phenomena. However, the amount of transferred charge and the corresponding change in the electronic structure vary significantly depending on the material. Here, we report study on the correlation between the sample work function and alkali metal induced electronic structure change for three iron-based superconductors: FeSe, Ba(Fe 0.94 Co 0.06 ) 2 As 2 and NaFeAs which share a similar Fermi surface topology. Electronic structure change upon monolayer of alkali metal dosing and the sample work function were measured by ARPES. In this work, our results show that the degree of electronic structure change is proportional to the difference between the work function of the sample and Mulliken's absolute electronegativity of the dosed alkali metal. This finding provides a possible way to estimate the AMD induced electronic structure change.
