We investigate structural, magnetic, and electronic properties of SrFeAsF as a new parent for superconductors using state-of-the-art density-functional theory method. Calculated results show that striped antiferromagnetic order is the magnetic ground state in the Fe layer and interlayer magnetic interaction is tiny. Calculated As and Sr positions are in agreement with experiment. There are only two uniaxially-dispersed bands near the Fermi level. The valent charge is mainly in the Fe and F layers, and the magnetic moment is confined to the Fe atoms. Inter-Fe-spin couplings is due to superexchange through As atoms. These are useful to understanding the SrFeAsF and should have helpful implications to doped samples.

We have investigated electronic structures of La$_3$S$_4$ and Ce$_3$S$_4$ using the LSDA and LSDA+$U$ methods. Calculated density of states (DOS) are compared with the experimental DOS obtained by the valence band photoemission spectroscopy. The DOS at $E_{rm{F}}$ indicates the 5$d$ character in La$_3$S$_4$ and 4$f$ character in Ce$_3$S$_4$. It is found to be nearly half metallic in the ferromagnetic ground state of Ce$_3$S$_4$. %Ce$_3$S$_4$ has ferromagnetic ground states with spin and orbital magnetic %moments of 1.27 $mu_{rm{B}}$ and $-$2.81 $mu_{rm{B}}$ per Ce, respectively, %and shows nearly half metallic ground state. We discuss the superconductivity and structural transition in La$_3$S$_4$, and the absence of structural transition in Ce$_3$S$_4$.
Superconductors and multiferroics are two of the hottest branches in condensed matter physics. The connections between those two fields are fundamentally meaningful to unify the physical rules of correlated electrons. Recently, BaFe$_2$Se$_3$, was pr edicted to be multiferroic [Phys. Rev. Lett. 113, 187204 (2014)] due to its unique one-dimensional block-type antiferromagnetism. Here, another iron-selenide KFe$_2$Se$_2$, a parent state of iron-based superconductor, is predicted to be multiferroic. Its two-dimensional block-type antiferromagnetism can generate a moderate electric dipole for each Fe-Se layer via the Fe-Se-Fe exchange striction. Different stacking configurations of these magnetic blocks give closely proximate energies and thus the ground state of KFe$_2$Se$_2$ may be switchable between antiferroelectric and ferroelectric phases.

We have studied the electronic and magnetic structures of the ternary iron arsenides AFe$_2$As$_2$ (A = Ba, Ca, or Sr) using the first-principles density functional theory. The ground states of these compounds are in a collinear antiferromagnetic ord er, resulting from the interplay between the nearest and the next-nearest neighbor superexchange antiferromagnetic interactions bridged by As $4p$ orbitals. The correction from the spin-orbit interaction to the band structure is small. The pressure can reduce dramatically the magnetic moment and diminish the collinear antiferromagnetic order. Based on the calculations, we propose that the low energy dynamics of these materials is described effectively by a $t-J_H-J_1-J_2$-type model.
Recent synthesis of fluorinated graphene introduced interesting stable derivatives of graphene. In particular, fluorographene (CF), namely fully fluorinated chair conformation, is found to display crucial features, such as high mechanical strength, c harged surfaces, local magnetic moments due to vacancy defects and a wide band gap rapidly reducing with uniform strain. These properties, as well as structural parameters and electronic densities of states are found to scale with fluorine coverage. However, most of the experimental data reported to date neither for CF, nor for other CnF structures complies with the results obtained from first-principles calculations. In this study, we attempt to clarify the sources of disagreements.
BaFe2As2 exhibits properties characteristic of the parent compounds of the newly discovered iron (Fe)-based high-TC superconductors. By combining the real space imaging of scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/S) with momentum space quantit ative Low Energy Electron Diffraction (LEED) we have identified the surface plane of cleaved BaFe2As2 crystals as the As terminated Fe-As layer - the plane where superconductivity occurs. LEED and STM/S data on the BaFe2As2(001) surface indicate an ordered arsenic (As) - terminated metallic surface without reconstruction or lattice distortion. It is surprising that the STM images the different Fe-As orbitals associated with the orthorhombic structure, not the As atoms in the surface plane.
