Popis: We will clarify, from the theoretical viewpoint, how electron correlations affect the density of states (DOS) and the angle-resolved photoemission spectra (ARPES). The two-dimensional half-filled Hubbard model is employed as a prototype of the interacting electron system. In the weak interaction regime, the DOS has a multi-peak structure, which consists of a sharp one-body coherent component and a broad many-body incoherent component. Accordingly, the ARPES has a sharp coherent peak near the Fermi level. We will show that a short-range spin correlation causes the multi-peak structure in the DOS. On the other hand, as the electronic interaction increases, the DOS and APRES are dominated by the many-body incoherent component even near the Fermi level. It will be shown that the strong coupling between the collective spin excitations and photo-generated hole causes the incoherent component.
