Abstract

We have performed a systematic doping-dependent study of La₂₋ₓSrₓCuO₄ (LSCO) (0.03 <= x <= 0.3) by angle-resolved photoemWe have performed a systematic doping-dependent study of La₂₋ₓSrxCuO₄ (LSCO) (0.03⩽x⩽0.3) by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Over this entire doping range, the underlying “Fermi surface” determined from the low-energy spectral weight approximately satisfies Luttinger’s theorem, even down to the lightly doped region. This is in strong contrast to the results on Ca₂₋ₓNaₓCuO₂Cl₂ (Na-CCOC), which show a clear deviation from Luttinger’s theorem. We correlate these differences between LSCO and Na-CCOC with differences in the behavior of chemical potential shift and spectral weight transfer induced by hole doping.ission spectroscopy.
