Photoemission Insights to Electronic Orders in Kagome Superconductor AV3Sb5

Kagome superconductors A V 3 Sb 5 (A = K, Rb, and Cs) have attracted considerable attention due to their intriguing combination of unique electron correlations and nontrivial band topology. The interplay of these fundamental aspects gives rise to a diverse array of exotic electronic phenomena, including superconductivity and charge density wave (CDW) states. In this review, we present recent advancements in the study of the electronic band structure of A V 3 Sb 5 using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), including the identification of the multiple van Hove singularities near the Fermi level and their close relationship with the CDW transition, spectroscopic features related to CDW-induced symmetry breakings, as well as direct observations of nodeless superconducting gaps and moderate electron-phonon couplings through ultrahigh-resolution ARPES, providing critical insights into the origins of CDW order and electron pairing symmetry. By synthesizing these key ARPES fi ndings, this review aims to deepen our understanding of kagome-related physics.
