Description |
BaFe2As2 is one of the heavily investigated compounds in the Fe-pnictide family. Hole doping is achieved by doping in K on Ba sites. The parent compound is known to be an antiferromagnetic(AFM) metal with a Spin Density Wave order. As one dopes the system the AFM gives way to the coexistence region where AFM and superconductivity(SC) coexist. Doping further leads to exclusively SC behavior which remains all the way up to 100% K-doping. The character of the SC varies from one end to other and there are several interesting features across the phase diagram. In this talk I shall present our approach towards understanding the physics behind the hole doped pnictides. I shall present how a simple technique can be used to understand this doping dependence in terms of fermi-surface topology and also show how dramatic changes can occur in the coexistence region which involves reconstruction of the electron and hole pockets. |
