Popis: We studied the electronic structure of a layered antiferromagnetic metal, EuSnP, in the paramagnetic and in the antiferromagnetic phase using angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) alongside density functional theory (DFT) based first principles calculations. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility measurements exhibits an antiferromagnetic transition at a Neel temperature of 21 K. Employing high resolution ARPES, the valence band structure was measured at several temperatures above and below the Neel temperature, which produced identical spectra independent of temperature. Through analysis of the ARPES results presented here, we attribute the temperature independent spectra to the weak coupling of the Sn, and P conduction electrons with Eu 4f states.
