The resonance, a collective boson mode, was usually thought to be a possible glue of superconductivity. We argue that it is rather a natural product of the emph{d}-wave pairing and the Fermi surface topology. A universal scaling $E_{res}/2Delta ^{H}_{S}sim 1.0$ ($Delta_{S}^{H}$ the magnitude of superconducting gap at hot spot) is proposed for cuprates, irrespective of the hole-/electron-doping, low-/high-energy resonance, monotonic/nonmonotonic emph{d}-wave paring, and the parameters selected. We reveal that there may exist two resonance peaks in the electron-doped cuprates. The low- and high- energy resonance, originated from the contributions of the different intra-band component, is intimately associated with the Fermi surface topology. By analyzing the data of inelastic neutron scattering, we conclude the nonmonotonic emph{d}-wave superconducting pairing symmetry in the electron-doped cuprates, which is still an open question

We discuss evolution of the Fermi surface (FS) topology with doping in electron doped cuprates within the framework of a one-band Hubbard Hamiltonian, where antiferromagnetism and superconductivity are assumed to coexist in a uniform phase. In the lightly doped insulator, the FS consists of electron pockets around the $(pi,0)$ points. The first change in the FS topology occurs in the optimally doped region when an additional hole pocket appears at the nodal point. The second change in topology takes place in the overdoped regime ($sim18%$) where antiferromagnetism disappears and a large $(pi,pi)$-centered metallic FS is formed. Evidence for these two topological transitions is found in recent Hall effect and penetration depth experiments on Pr$_{2-x}$Ce$_{x}$CuO$_{4-delta}$ (PCCO) and with a number of spectroscopic measurements on Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_{x}$CuO$_{4-delta}$ (NCCO).
Here we report the first results of the high-pressure Hall coefficient (RH) measurements, combined with the high-pressure resistance measurements, at different temperatures on the putative topological superconductor FeTe0.55Se0.45. We find the intimate correlation of sign change of RH, a fingerprint to manifest the reconstruction of Fermi surface, with structural phase transition and superconductivity. Below the critical pressure (PC) of 2.7 GPa, our data reveal that the hole - electron carriers are thermally balanced (RH=0) at a critical temperature (T*), where RH changes its sign from positive to negative, and concurrently a tetragonal-orthorhombic phase transition takes place. Within the pressure range from 1bar to PC, T* is continuously suppressed by pressure, while TC increases monotonically. At about PC, T* is indistinguishable and TC reaches a maximum value. Moreover, a pressure-induced sign change of RH is found at ~PC where the orthorhombic-monoclinic phase transition occurs. With further compression, TC decreases and disappears at ~ 12 GPa. The correlation among the electron-hole balance, crystal structure and superconductivity found in the pressurized FeTe0.55Se0.45 implies that its nontrivial superconductivity is closely associated with its exotic normal state resulted from the interplay between the reconstruction of the Fermi surface and the change of the structural lattice.
The pressure dependence of the structural ($T_s$), antiferromagnetic ($T_m$), and superconducting ($T_c$) transition temperatures in FeSe is investigated on the basis of the 16-band $d$-$p$ model. At ambient pressure, a shallow hole pocket disappears due to the correlation effect, as observed in the angular-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and quantum oscillation (QO) experiments, resulting in the suppression of the antiferromagnetic order, in contrast to the other iron pnictides. The orbital-polarization interaction between the Fe $d$ orbital and Se $p$ orbital is found to drive the ferro-orbital order responsible for the structural transition without accompanying the antiferromagnetic order. The pressure dependence of the Fermi surfaces is derived from the first-principles calculation and is found to well account for the opposite pressure dependences of $T_s$ and $T_m$, around which the enhanced orbital and magnetic fluctuations cause the double-dome structure of the eigenvalue $lambda$ in the Eliashberg equation, as consistent with that of $T_c$ in FeSe.
We present a soft x-ray angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy study of the overdoped high-temperature superconductors La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ and La$_{1.8-x}$Eu$_{0.2}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$. In-plane and out-of-plane components of the Fermi surface are mapped by varying the photoemission angle and the incident photon energy. No $k_z$ dispersion is observed along the nodal direction, whereas a significant antinodal $k_z$ dispersion is identified. Based on a tight-binding parametrization, we discuss the implications for the density of states near the van-Hove singularity. Our results suggest that the large electronic specific heat found in overdoped La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ can not be assigned to the van-Hove singularity alone. We therefore propose quantum criticality induced by a collapsing pseudogap phase as a plausible explanation for observed enhancement of electronic specific heat.
We introduce a simple but powerful zero temperature Stoner model to explain the unusual phase diagram of the ferromagnetic superconductor, UGe2. Triplet superconductivity is driven in the ferromagnetic phase by tuning the majority spin Fermi level through one of two peaks in the paramagnetic density of states (DOS). Each peak is associated with a metamagnetic jump in magnetisation. The twin peak DOS may be derived from a tight-binding, quasi-one-dimensional bandstructure, inspired by previous bandstructure calculations.
