Quantitative analysis of Sr2RuO4 angle-resolved photoemission spectra: Many-body interactions in a model Fermi liquid

Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy ARPES spectra hold a wealth of information about the manybody interactions in a correlated material. However, the quantitative analysis of ARPES spectra to extract the various coupling parameters in a consistent manner is extremely challenging, even for a model Fermi liquid system. We propose a fitting procedure which allows quantitative access to the intrinsic line shape, deconvolved of energy and momentum resolution effects, of the correlated two-dimensional material Sr2RuO4. In correlated two-dimensional materials, we find an ARPES linewidth that is narrower than its binding energy, a key property of quasiparticles within Fermi liquid theory. We also find that when the electron-electron scattering component is separated from the electron-phonon and impurity scattering terms, it decreases with a functional form compatible with Fermi liquid theory as the Fermi energy is approached. In combination with the previously determined Fermi surface, these results give a complete picture of a Fermi liquid system via ARPES. Furthermore, we show that the magnitude of the extracted imaginary part of the self-energy is in remarkable agreement with DC transport measurements.
