Abstract

Photoemission spectroscopy with low-energy tunable photons on oxygen-deficient iron-based oxypnictide superconductors NdFeAsO 0.85 ( T c =52 K) reveals a distinct photon-energy dependence of the electronic structure near the Fermi level ( E F ). A clear shift of the leading-edge can be observed in the superconducting states with 9.5 eV photons, while a clear Fermi cutoff with little leading-edge shift can be observed with 6.0 eV photons. The results are indicative of the superconducting gap opening not on the hole-like ones around Γ(0,0) point but on the electron-like sheets around M(π,π) point.
