Abstract

Quasiparticle dispersion in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 is investigated with improved angular resolution as a function of temperature and doping. Unlike the linear dispersion predicted by the band calculation, the data show a sharp break in dispersion at 50±15 meV binding energy where the velocity changes by a factor of 2 or more. This change provides an energy scale in the quasiparticle self-energy. This break in dispersion is evident at and away from the d-wave node line, but the magnitude of the dispersion change decreases with temperature and with increasing doping.
