The band exhibits steep dispersion near the Fermi level despite the fact that it is formed mainly by Pt 𝑑 orbitals that are typically localized. We propose a picture based on two hidden kagome-lattice-like electronic structures: one originating from Pt 𝑠+𝑝𝑥/𝑝𝑦 orbitals, and the other from Pt 𝑑3𝑧2−𝑟2+𝑑𝑥𝑦/𝑑𝑥2−𝑦2 orbitals, each placed on the bonds of the triangular lattice. In particular, we find that the underlying Pt 𝑠+𝑝𝑥/𝑝𝑦 bands actually determine the steepness of the original dispersion, so that the large Fermi velocity can be attributed to the large width of the Pt 𝑠+𝑝𝑥/𝑝𝑦 band. In addition, the kagome-like electronic structure gives rise to “orbital-momentum locking” on the Fermi surface, which reduces the electron scattering by impurities. We conclude that the combination of the large Fermi velocity and the orbital-momentum locking is likely to be the origin of the extremely small resistivity in PtCoO2."}],"doi":"10.1103/physrevmaterials.3.045002","scopus_import":"1","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","volume":3,"intvolume":" 3","arxiv":1,"publication_identifier":{"issn":["2475-9953"]},"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication":"Physical Review Materials","type":"journal_article","year":"2019","day":"12","title":"Hidden kagome-lattice picture and origin of high conductivity in delafossite PtCoO2","status":"public","oa":1,"date_published":"2019-04-12T00:00:00Z","OA_place":"repository","article_number":"045002","external_id":{"arxiv":["1812.07213"]}}
