| contents | We show that the momentum-dependent scaling exponents of the holographic fermion self-energy of the conformal-to-AdS$_2$ Gubser-Rocha model can describe new findings from angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments on a single layer (Pb,Bi)$_{2}$Sr$_{2-x}$La$_x$CuO$_{6+δ}$ copper-oxide. In particular, it was recently observed, in high-precision measurements on constant energy cuts along the nodal direction, that the spectral function departs from the Lorentzian line shape that is expected from the power-law-liquid model of a nodal self-energy, with an imaginary part featureless in momentum as $Σ''_{\text{PLL}}(ω) \propto (ω^2)^α$. By direct comparison with experimental results, we provide evidence that this departure from either a Fermi liquid or the power-law liquid, resulting in an asymmetry of the spectral function as a function of momentum around the central peak, is captured at low temperature and all dopings by a semi-holographic model that predicts a momentum-dependent scaling exponent in the electron self-energy as $Σ(ω,k) \propto ω(-ω^2)^{α(1 - (k - k_F)/k_F) - 1/2}$, with $\hbar k_F$ the Fermi momentum. |
