Comment on arXiv:1012.1484v1 Structural origin of apparent Fermi surface pockets in angle-resolved photoemission of Bi₂Sr_(2-x)La_xCuO_(6+δ) by King et al
read the original abstract
In our Nature paper, we reported observation of Fermi pocket in Bi_2(Sr_{2-x}La_x)CuO_{6+\delta} (La-Bi2201) by angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) measurements. King et al. tried to assign the Fermi pocket we observed as due to an additional q2 superstructure. In the process, it creates a number of serious inconsistencies and flaws in their interpretation. Any one of these inconsistencies goes strongly against King et al.'s proposal, making their proposed structural origin highly unlikely as the cause of the observed Fermi pocket. In our Nature paper, we already pointed out that this structural origin is unlikely based on the absence of additional q2-induced first-order superstructure bands of the main band MB. This conclusion remains valid and gains even stronger support by considering King et al's data.
