Critical role of parallel momentum in quantum well state couplings in multi-stacked nanofilms: An angle resolved photoemission study

We use angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy to investigate the coupling of electron quantum well states (QWSs) in epitaxial thin Pb and Ag films. More specifically, we investigate the Ag/Si, Pb/Si, and Pb/Ag/Si systems. We found that the parallel momentum plays a very profound role in determini...
