The exfoliable intralayer antiferromagnets MPX3 (M: transition metal, P: phosphorus, X: chalcogenide) provide a multitude of spin arrangements such as Néel-, stripe- and zigzag-type. However, the electronic band structure of these semiconductors has barely been probed. Here, we provide micro-scale angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy (μ-ARPES) of the exfoliated intralayer antiferromagnet FePS3 above and below the Néel temperature TN. The material exhibits the zig-zag-type spin arrangement consisting of ferromagnetic zig-zag lines that are mutually coupled antiferromagnetically. We find changes of some of the probed bands across TN. Additionally, the changing bands differ in the different Gamma-K directions, if probed below TN, which is likely related to the selected orientation of the ferromagnetic zig-zag stripes. First low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy results obtained with a Cr tip are also presented. The novel access to the electronic band structure will contribute to a detailed understanding of 2D antiferromagnets.
