Unraveling Sublattice Properties of 3D-Orbital Van Hove Singularities in Kagome Superconductor CsV3Sb5

So-called kagome metals, named after the Japanese woven bamboo pattern their structure resembles, feature symmetrical patterns of interlaced, corner-sharing triangles. This unusual lattice geometry and its inherent features lead, in turn, to curious quantum phenomena such as unconventional, or high-temperature, superconductivity.
