[[File:ARPESgeneral.png|thumb|An Experimental Setup of Angle-Resolved Photoemission Spectroscopy]]
'''Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy''' ('''ARPES'''), also known as '''ARUPS''' (angle-resolved [[ultraviolet]] [[photoemission spectroscopy]]), is a direct experimental technique to observe the distribution of the [[electrons]] (more precisely, the density of single-particle electronic excitations) in the [[reciprocal space]] of solids. ARPES is one of the most direct methods of studying the electronic structure of the surface of solids.
 
ARPES gives information on the direction, speed and scattering process of [[valence electrons]] in the sample being studied (usually a solid).  This means that information can be gained on both the energy and momentum of an electron, resulting in detailed information on band dispersion and [[Fermi surface]].  This technique is a refinement of ordinary [[photoemission spectroscopy]].
 
From conservation of energy, we have
:<math> E = \hbar  \omega - E_{k_f} - \phi. </math>
where E is the binding energy of the electron. Photon momentum is often neglected because of its smallness compared with electron momentum.  
 
In the typical case, where the surface of the sample is smooth, translational symmetry requires that the component of electron momentum in the plane of the sample be conserved:
:<math> \hbar k_{i\parallel}=\hbar k_{f\parallel}=\sqrt{2m E_f}\sin\theta</math>
where
*<math> E_{k_f} = </math> kinetic energy of the outgoing electron — measured.
*<math> \hbar \omega = </math> incoming photon energy — measured.
*<math> \phi = </math> electron [[work function]] (energy required to remove electron from sample to vacuum)
*<math>\hbar k_f=</math> momentum of the outgoing electron, measured by angle
*<math>\hbar k_i=</math> initial momentum of the electron
{{Condensed matter experiments}}
However, the normal component of electron momentum <math>k_{i\perp}</math> might not be conserved. The typical way of dealing with this is to assume that the final in-crystal states are free-electron-like, in which case one has
:<math>k_{i\perp}=\frac{1}{\hbar}\sqrt{2m(E_f \cos^2\theta+V_0)}</math>
in which <math>V_0</math> denotes the band depth from vacuum, including electron work function <math>\phi</math>; <math>V_0</math> can be determined by examining only the electrons emitted perpendicular to the surface, measuring their kinetic energy as a function of incident photon energy.
 
The equations for energy and momentum can be solved to determine the dispersion relation between the binding energy, <math> E </math>, and the wave vector, <math> \mathbf{k}_i=\mathbf{k}_{i\parallel}+\mathbf{k}_{i\perp} </math>, of the electron.
