چکیده
The electronic structure of BaFe2As2 doped with Co, Ni, and Cu has been studied by a variety of experimental and theoretical methods, but a clear picture of the dopant 3d states has not yet emerged. Herein we provide experimental evidence of the distribution of Co, Ni, and Cu 3d states in the valence band. We conclude that the Co and Ni 3d states provide additional free carriers to the Fermi level, while the Cu 3d states are found at the bottom of the valence band in a localized 3d shell. These findings help shed light on why superconductivity can occur in BaFe2As2 doped with Co and Ni but not Cu. PACS numbers: 71.20.Dg, 74.25.Jb Submitted to: J. Phys.: Condens. Matter

Electronic correlations and unconventional spectral weight transfer in the high-temperature pnictide BaFe(2-x)Co(x)As(2) superconductor using infrared spectroscopy.
We report an infrared optical study of the pnictide high-temperature superconductor BaFe(1.84)Co(0.16)As(2) and its parent compound BaFe(2)As(2). We demonstrate that electronic correlations are moderately strong and do not change across the spin-density wave transition or with doping. By examining the energy scale and direction of spectral weight transfer, we argue that Hund's coupling J is the...

The Gd(Ba2-xPrx)Cu3O single phase polycrystalline samples with 0.00 ≤ x ≤ 1.00 were investigated for structural, electronic and flux dynamic properties. An unusual hump on the resistivity vs. temperature curve of the samples has been observed for particular values of Pr doping. We have found that the Ba atom substitution at the rare earth site could lead to superconductivity in some parts of ...
متن کاملElectroactive Materials Based on Thiophen: Study of the Doping and its Effect
We have theoretically investigated the effect of doping in oligothiophenes (Tn, n=2-8) with the DFT method at UB3LYP level with 6-31G(d) basis set. Our attention focused on the study of the geometrical and electronic properties in the neutral and doped states. We show that the doping process modify both bond lengths and torsion angles and also electronic properties by enhancing the planarity an...
متن کاملThe electronic structure and band hybridization of Co/Ti doped BaFe<sub>12</sub>O<sub>19</sub>
We identify contributions to the valence band of the nanosized BaFe12−2xCoxTixO19 barium ferrite particles, from the cobalt and titanium dopants. Resonant photoemission results show that cobalt and titanium dopants strongly hybridize with the barium ferrite matrix. Fano resonances are identifi ed in the valence band region, at the Ba (5s), Ti (3p) and Co (3p) thresholds, and there are signifi c...
متن کاملEffects of D-Doping on Characteristics of AlAs/GaAs Barriers Grown by Mba at 400 ??C
Effects of d-doping on barriers effective heights and series resistance of highly doped n-type GaAs/AIAs/GaAs/AlAs/GaAs heterostructures, grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) at 400?°C, have been studied. As it was expected, inclusion of an n+ d-doped layer at each hetero-interface has reduced the barriers heights and series resistance of the structure significantly, while p+ d-doped layers ha...
