Correlation effects in the iron pnictides
One of the central questions about the iron pnictides concerns the extent to which their electrons are strongly correlated. Here we address this issue through the phenomenology of the charge transport and dynamics, single-electron excitation spectrum, and magnetic ordering and dynamics. We outline the evidence that the parent compounds, while metallic, have electron interactions that are suffic...
متن کاملBulk electronic structure of superconducting LaRu2P2 single crystals measured by soft-X-ray angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy.
We present a soft x-ray angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (SX-ARPES) study of the stoichiometric pnictide superconductor LaRu(2)P(2). The observed electronic structure is in good agreement with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. However, it is significantly different from its counterpart in high-temperature superconducting Fe pnictides. In particular, the bandwidth renormaliz...
متن کاملElectron correlation and spin density wave order in iron pnictides.
We study the correlation effects on the electronic structure, orbital and spin density wave (SDW) order in Fe pnictides. Using the multiorbital Hubbard model and Gutzwiller projection, we show that correlation effects are essential to stabilize the metallic SDW phase for the intermediate correlation strengths appropriate for pnictides. We find that the ordered moments depend sensitively on Hund...
متن کاملStrong correlations and magnetic frustration in the high Tc iron pnictides.
We consider the iron pnictides in terms of a proximity to a Mott insulator. The superexchange interactions contain competing nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor components. In the undoped parent compound, these frustrated interactions lead to a two-sublattice collinear antiferromagnet (each sublattice forming a Néel ordering), with a reduced magnitude for the ordered moment. Electron or ...
متن کاملPersistent high-energy spin excitations in iron-pnictide superconductors.
Motivated by the premise that superconductivity in iron-based superconductors is unconventional and mediated by spin fluctuations, an intense research effort has been focused on characterizing the spin-excitation spectrum in the magnetically ordered parent phases of the Fe pnictides and chalcogenides. For these undoped materials, it is well established that the spin-excitation spectrum consists...
