Description:

(abstract)

We use a pomp-probe, spin- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) with a 10.7 eV laser accessible up to the Brillouin zone edge, and reveal for the first time the entire band structure, including the unoccupied side, for the elemental bismuth (Bi) with the spin-polarized surface states. Our data identify Bi as in a strong topological insulator phase (Z2=1) against the prediction of most band calculations. Furthermore, we unveil that the unoccupied topological surface states possess spin-polarized saddle points yielding van Hove singularity, providing an excellent platform for the future development of opto-spintronics.
