Abstract

We have performed angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of the layered ternary telluride Ta3SiTe6 which is predicted to host nodal lines associated with nonsymmorphic crystal symmetry. We found that the energy bands in the valence-band region show Dirac-like dispersions which present a band degeneracy at the R point of the bulk orthorhombic Brillouin zone. This band degeneracy extends one dimensionally along the whole SR high-symmetry line, forming nodal lines protected by the glide mirror symmetry of the crystal. We also observed a small band splitting near E-F which supports the existence of hourglass-type dispersions predicted by the calculation. The present results provide an excellent opportunity to investigate the interplay between exotic nodal fermions and nonsymmorphic crystal symmetry.
