Popis: | Angular-resolved photoemission data and a full-potential fully relativistic density-functional calculation on the electronic band structure of the layered semiconductor W${\mathrm{Se}}_{2}$ consistently show that the valence-band maximum is located at the sixfold-degenerate $K$ point of the Brillouin zone and not at its center, as earlier calculations have predicted. By mapping out constant energy contours with photoemission spectroscopy, the k space location of the valence-band maximum can be visualized in a very instructive way, demonstrating the potential of this spectroscopic technique also for semiconductors. |
