| Fitting the momentum distribution photoemission spectra to the Voigt profile appears to be a robust procedure to purify the interaction effects from the experimental resolution. In application to Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ high-Tc cuprates, the procedure reveals the true scattering rate at low binding energies and temperatures, and consequently, the true value of the elastic scattering. Reaching the minimal value 16 meV, the elastic scattering does not reveal a systematic dependence on doping level, but is rather sensitive to impurity concentration and can be explained by the forward scattering on out-of-plane impurities. The inelastic scattering is found to form well-defined quasiparticles. |
