Abstract:
The interplay between local and itinerant electrons underpins many correlated and topological quantum states. Kagome lattices provide an ideal platform by hosting both flat (localized states) and dispersive bands (itinerant states), yet direct spectroscopic evidence of their dynamical coupling has remained elusive. Here we report the long-sought flat band resonance in the quasi-two-dimensional kagome bilayer material CsCr₆Sb₆. Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, transport measurements, and combined density functional theory and dynamical mean-field theory, we identify coexisting flat band doublets and dispersive bands near the Fermi energy. Upon cooling, the flat and dispersive bands exhibit a pronounced enhancement of spectral weight and hybridization, directly evidencing flat band resonance. Crucially, this emergence coincides with the onset of short-range antiferromagnetic correlations, contrasting sharply with conventional Kondo lattice behavior. Our findings demonstrate not only the long-sought flat band resonance in kagome materials, but also its unconventional correlation with magnetism.
