Abstract :
We present the photoemission results of two layered tetragonal compounds, the anti-ferromagnet UAsSe and ferromagnet USb2. We observed intriguing electronic structure for both UAsSe and USb2, in which relatively dispersive and narrow 5f bands are present. In the vicinity of the Fermi edge we found a very sharp photoemission peak with dispersion of several meV along the Γ to Z direction of the Brillouin zone. We also found a broader, hybridized f-character band with dispersion of several hundred meV along the Γ to X direction. Narrow and dispersive bands in these U-based magnetic materials are reminiscent of band magnetism as previously found in some transition metals.
