Abstract

We have performed high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) on a quasi-two-dimensional (2D) conductor η-Mo₄O ₁₁, which undergoes a two-stage charge density wave (CDW) transition at 109 and 35 K. We have succeeded in experimentally mapping out the two-dimensional Fermi surface (FS) as well as directly observing two different CDW gaps. We found that the two-dimensional FS of η-Mo₄O ₁₁ consists of two "hidden one-dimensional (1D) FSs" originating in two almost independent conducting paths in the crystal. We also found that the gap energy and the temperature dependence are different for the two CDW gaps. The present ARPES results indicate that the characteristic CDW transition in η-Mo₄O₁₁ is driven by the instability of two "hidden 1D FSs".
