Based on first-principle FLAPW-GGA calculations, we have investigated structural and electronic properties of the recently synthesized tetragonal (space group P4/nmm) nickel-based pnictide oxide superconductors: 3.3K (Ni2P2)(Sr4Sc2O6) and 2.7K (Ni2As2)(Sr4Sc2O6). Optimized structural data, electronic bands, total and partial densities of states, and Fermi surface topology have been obtained and discussed in comparison with available experiments and with their Fe-based (Fe2P2)(Sr4Sc2O6) and (Fe2As2)(Sr4Sc2O6) analogs.

Very recently, as an important step in the development of layered Fe-free pnictide-oxide superconductors, the new phase BaTi2Bi2O was discovered which has the highest TC (about 4.6 K) among all related non-doped systems. In this Letter, we report for
the first time the electronic bands, Fermi surface topology, total and partial densities of electronic states for BaTi2Bi2O obtained by means of the first-principles FLAPW-GGA calculations. The inter-atomic bonding picture is described as a high-anisotropic mixture of metallic, covalent, and ionic contributions. Besides, the structural and electronic factors, which can be responsible for the increased transition temperature for BaTi2Bi2O (as compared with related pnictide-oxides BaTi2As2O and BaTi2Sb2O), are discussed.
We have examined theoretically the electronic band structure and Fermi surface of tetragonal low-temperature superconductor Bi2Pd. Our main results are that (i) the Pd 4d and Bi 6p states determine the main peculiarities of the multiple-sheets FS top
ology, thus for this material the complicated superconducting gap structure with different energy gaps on different FS sheets should be assumed; (ii) the effect of the spin-orbit coupling is of minor importance for the distributions of the near-Fermi electronic states; and (iii) this phase adopts 3D-like type owing to the directional bonds between the adjacent atomic sheets.
It has long been a challenge to describe the origin of unconventional superconductivity. The two known examples with high Tc, based on iron and copper, have very different electronic structures, while other materials with similar electronic structure
may not show superconductivity at all. In this paper, the authors show that by using high accuracy diffusion Monte Carlo calculations, the unconventional superconductors of both high Tc types form a cluster at intermediate spin-charge coupling. The spin-charge coupling may serve as a normal state marker for unconventional superconductivity, and provides evidence that unconventional superconductivity is due to interaction of charge with local spins in materials.
By means of the first-principles calculations, we have studied in details the structural, elastic and electronic properties of the new tetragonal CaBe2Ge2-type 5.2K superconductor SrPt2As2 in comparison with two hypothetical SrPt2As2 polymorphs with
ThCr2Si2-type structures which differ by atomic configurations of [Pt2As2] (or [Pt2As2]) blocks. We have found that CaBe2Ge2-type SrPt2As2 is a quite unique system with complicated 2D-3D character of near-Fermi bands, and the intermediate type of the Fermi surface, which consists of electronic pockets having cylinder-like (2D) topology (typical for 122 FeAs phases) together with 3D-like electronic and hole pockets, which are characteristic for ThCr2Si2-like iron-free low-Tc superconductors. Our analysis reveals that against ThCr2Si2-like 122 phases, the other features for CaBe2Ge2-like SrPt2As2 are: (1). The essential differences of contributions of states from [Pt2As2] and [Pt2As2] blocks into near-Fermi region when the conduction is expected to be anisotropic and happening mainly in [Pt2As2] blocks; (2). The formation of the 3D system of strong covalent Pt-As bonds (inside and between of [Pt2As2]/[As2Pt2] blocks) which is responsible for enhanced stability of this polymorph, and (3). the essential charge anisotropy between the adjacent [Pt2As2] and [As2Pt2] blocks. We have predicted also that CaBe2Ge2-like SrPt2As2 is mechanically stable, relatively soft material with high compressibility and will behave in a ductile manner. On the contrary the ThCr2Si2-type SrPt2As2 polymorphs which contain only [Pt2As2] or [As2Pt2] blocks, are less stable, their Fermi surfaces adopt a multi-sheet three-dimensional type - similar to ThCr2Si2-like iron-free 122 phases, and these polymorphs will be ductile materials with high elastic anisotropy.
Very recently (November, 2010, PRB, 82, 180520R) the first 122-like ternary superconductor KxFe2Se2 with enhanced TC ~ 31K has been discovered. This finding has stimulated much activity in search of related materials and triggered the intense studies
of their properties. Indeed already in 2010-2011 the superconductivity (TC ~ 27-33K) was also found in the series of new synthesized 122 phases such as CsxFe2Se2, RbxFe2Se2, (TlK)xFeySe2 etc. which have formed today the new family of superconducting iron-based materials without toxic As. Here, using the ab initio FLAPW-GGA method we have predicted for the first time the elastic properties for KFe2Se2 and discussed their interplay with inter-atomic bonding for this system. Our data reveal that the examined phase is relatively soft material. In addition, this system is mechanically stable, adopts considerable elastic anisotropy, and demonstrates brittleness. These conclusions agree with the bonding picture for KFe2Se2, where the inter-atomic bonding is highly anisotropic and includes ionic, covalent and metallic contributions.
