Electronic Structure of shandite Co3Sn2S2 — •Matthias Holder1, Yuri S. Dedkov1, Serguei L. Molodtsov1, and Helge Rosner2 — 1Institut für Festkörperphsik, Technische Universität Dresden, 01062 Dresden, Germany — 2Max-Planck Institut für Chemische Physik fester Stoffe, 01187 Dresden, Germany
From theoretical calculation within LSDA method the ground state of shandite Co3Sn2S2 is predicted to be ferromagnetic with a tiny gap in the minority spin channel. Previous experimental results from magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, and resistivity measurements on powder samples showed a phase transition to a ferromagnetic metallic state at 177 K with a saturation moment of 0.87µB/f.u. Here we present the results of studies of its electronic structure by means of spin- and angle- resolved photoemission on poly- and singlecristalline Co3Sn2S2 samples. Experimental results are discussed in the framework of existing spin- resolved band- structure calculations.
