Charge-Density-Wave-Induced Peak-Dip-Hump Structure and the Multiband Superconductivity in a Kagome Superconductor CsV$_{3}$Sb$_{5}$

Abstract: The entanglement of charge density wave (CDW), superconductivity, and topologically nontrivial electronic structure has recently been discovered in the kagome metal $A$V$3$Sb$_5$ ($A$ = K, Rb, Cs) family. With high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we study the electronic properties of CDW and superconductivity in CsV$_3$Sb$_5$. The spectra around $\bar{K}$ is found to exhibit a peak-dip-hump structure associated with two separate branches of dispersion, demonstrating the isotropic CDW gap opening below $E{\rm F}$. The peak-dip-hump lineshape is contributed by linearly dispersive Dirac bands in the lower branch and a dispersionless flat band close to $E_{\rm F}$ in the upper branch. The electronic instability via Fermi surface nesting could play a role in determining these CDW-related features. The superconducting gap of $\sim$0.4 meV is observed on both the electron band around $\bar{\Gamma}$ and the flat band around $\bar{K}$, implying the multiband superconductivity. The finite density of states (DOS) at $E_{\rm F}$ in the CDW phase are most likely in favor of the emergence of multiband superconductivity, particularly the enhanced DOS associated with the flat band. Our results not only shed light on the controversial origin of the CDW, but also offer insights into the relationship between CDW and superconductivity.
