When either electron or hole doped at concentrations $xsim 0.1$, the LaOFeAs family displays remarkably high temperature superconductivity with T$_c$ up to 55 K. In the most energetically stable $vec Q_M = (pi,pi)$ antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase comprised of tetragonal-symmetry breaking alternating chains of aligned spins, there is a deep pseudogap in the Fe 3d states centered at the Fermi energy, and very strong magnetophonon coupling is uncovered. Doping (of either sign) beyond $x sim 0.1$ results in Fe 3d heavy mass carriers ($m^*sim 4-8$) with a large Fermi surface. Calculated Fe-Fe transverse exchange couplings $J_{ij}(R)$ reveal that exchange coupling is strongly dependent on the AFM symmetry and Fe-As distance.

We establish the general form of effective interacting Hamiltonian for LaOFeAs system based on the symmetry consideration. The peculiar symmetry property of the electron states yields unusual form of electron-electron interaction. Based on the genera
l effective Hamiltonian, we determine all the ten possible pairing states. More physical considerations would further reduce the list of the candidates for the pairing state.
We synthesized Sr-doped $La_{0.85}Sr_{0.15}OFeAs$ sample with single phase, and systematically studied the effect of oxygen deficiency in the Sr-doped LaOFeAs system. It is found that substitution of Sr for La indeed induces the hole carrier evidence
d by positive thermoelectric power (TEP), but no bulk superconductivity is observed. The superconductivity can be realized by annealing the as-grown sample in vacuum to produce the oxygen deficiency. With increasing the oxygen deficiency, the superconducting transition temperature ($T_c$) increases and maximum $T_c$ reaches about 26 K the same as that in La(O,F)FeAs. TEP dramatically changes from positive to negative in the nonsuperconducting as-grown sample to the superconducting samples with oxygen deficiency. While $R_H$ is always negative for all samples (even for Sr-doped as grown sample). It suggests that the $La_{0.85}Sr_{0.15}O_{1-delta}FeAs$ is still electron-type superconductor.
High-temperature (high-Tc) superconductivity in the copper oxides arises from electron or hole doping of their antiferromagnetic (AF) insulating parent compounds. The evolution of the AF phase with doping and its spatial coexistence with superconduct
ivity are governed by the nature of charge and spin correlations and provide clues to the mechanism of high-Tc superconductivity. Here we use a combined neutron scattering and scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) to study the Tc evolution of electron-doped superconducting Pr0.88LaCe0.12CuO4-delta obtained through the oxygen annealing process. We find that spin excitations detected by neutron scattering have two distinct modes that evolve with Tc in a remarkably similar fashion to the electron tunneling modes in STS. These results demonstrate that antiferromagnetism and superconductivity compete locally and coexist spatially on nanometer length scales, and the dominant electron-boson coupling at low energies originates from the electron-spin excitations.
Linear response methods are applied to identify the increase in electron-phonon coupling in elemental yttrium that is responsible for its high superconducting critical temperature Tc, which reaches nearly 20 K at 115 GPa. While the evolution of the b
and structure and density of states is smooth and seemingly modest, there is strong increase in the 4d content of the occupied conduction states under pressure. We find that the transverse mode near the L point of the fcc Brillouin zone, already soft at ambient pressure, becomes unstable (in harmonic approximation) at a relative volume V/Vo=0.60 (P ~ 42 GPa). The coupling to transverse branches is relatively strong at all high symmetry zone boundary points X, K, and L. Coupling to the longitudinal branches is not as strong, but extends over more regions of the Brillouin zone and involves higher frequencies. Evaluation of the electron-phonon spectral function $alpha^2F(omega)$ shows a very strong increase with pressure of coupling in the 2-7 meV range, with a steady increase also in the 7-20 meV range. These results demonstrates strong electron-phonon coupling in this system that can account for the observed range of Tc.
We present a detailed first principles study of Fe-pnictides with particular emphasis on competing magnetic interactions, structural phase transition, giant magneto-elastic coupling and its effect on phonons. The exchange interactions $J_{i,j}(R)$ ar
e calculated up to $approx 12 $AA $. We find that $J_{i,j}(R)$ has an oscillatory character with an envelop decaying as $1/R^3$ along the stripe-direction while it is very short range along the diagonal direction and antiferromagnetic. A brief discussion of the neutron scattering determination of these exchange constants from a single crystal sample with orthorhombic twinning is given. The lattice parameter dependence of the exchange constants, $dJ_{i,j}/da$ are calculated for a simple spin-Peierls like model to explain the fine details of the tetragonal-orthorhombic phase transition. We then discuss giant magneto-elastic effects in these systems. We show that when the Fe-spin is turned off the optimized c-values are shorter than experimetnal values by 1.4 AA $ $ for CaFe$_2$As$_2$, by 0.4 AA $ $ for BaFe$_2$As$_2$, and by 0.13 AA $ $ for LaOFeAs. Finally, we show that Fe-spin is also required to obtain the right phonon energies, in particular As c-polarized and Fe-Fe in-plane modes. Since treating iron as magnetic ion always gives much better results than non-magnetic ones and since there is no large c-axis reduction during the normal to superconducting phase transition, the iron magnetic moment should be present in Fe-pnictides at all times. We discuss the implications of our results on the mechanism of superconductivity in these fascinating Fe-pnictide systems.
