We studied pairing mechanism of the heavily electron doped FeSe (HEDIS) systems, which commonly have one incipient hole band -- a band top below the Fermi level by a finite energy distance $epsilon_b$ -- at $Gamma$ point and ordinary electron bands at $M$ points in Brillouin zone (BZ). We found that the system allows two degenerate superconducting solutions with the exactly same $T_c$ in clean limit: the incipient $s^{pm}_{he}$-gap ($Delta_h^{-} eq 0$, $Delta_e^{+} eq 0$) and $s_{ee}^{++}$-gap ($Delta_h =0$, $Delta_e^{+} eq 0$) solutions with different pairing cutoffs, $Lambda_{sf}$ (spin fluctuation energy) and $epsilon_b$, respectively. The $s_{ee}^{++}$-gap solution, in which the system dynamically renormalizes the original pairing cutoff $Lambda_{sf}$ to $Lambda_{phys}=epsilon_b$ ($< Lambda_{sf}$), therefore actively eliminates the incipient hole band from forming Cooper pairs, but without loss of $T_c$, becomes immune to the impurity pair-breaking. As a result, the HEDIS systems, by dynamically tuning the pairing cutoff and selecting the $s_{ee}^{++}$-pairing state, can always achieve the maximum $T_c$ -- the $T_c$ of the degenerate $s^{pm}_{he}$ solution in the ideal clean limit -- latent in the original pairing interactions, even in dirty limit.

We theoretically study the spin fluctuation and superconductivity in La1111 and Sm1111 iron-based superconductors for a wide range of electron doping. When we take into account the band structure variation by electron doping, the hole Fermi surface o
riginating from the $d_{X^2-Y^2}$ orbital turns out to be robust against electron doping, and this gives rise to large spin fluctuations and consequently $spm$ pairing even in the heavily doped regime. The stable hole Fermi surface is larger for Sm1111 than for La1111, which can be considered as the origin of the apparent difference in the phase diagram.
We have computed alpha^2Fs for the hole-doped cuprates within the framework of the one-band Hubbard model, where the full magnetic response of the system is treated properly. The d-wave pairing weight alpha^2F_d is found to contain not only a low ene
rgy peak due to excitations near (pi,pi) expected from neutron scattering data, but to also display substantial spectral weight at higher energies due to contributions from other parts of the Brillouin zone as well as pairbreaking ferromagnetic excitations at low energies. The resulting solutions of the Eliashberg equations yield transition temperatures and gaps comparable to the experimentally observed values, suggesting that magnetic excitations of both high and low energies play an important role in providing the pairing glue in the cuprates.
The elementary CuO2 plane sustaining cuprate high-temperature superconductivity occurs typically at the base of a periodic array of edge-sharing CuO5 pyramids (Fig 1a). Virtual transitions of electrons between adjacent planar Cu and O atoms, occurrin
g at a rate $t/{hbar}$ and across the charge-transfer energy gap E, generate superexchange spin-spin interactions of energy $Japprox4t^4/E^3$ in an antiferromagnetic correlated-insulator state1. Hole doping the CuO2 plane disrupts this magnetic order while perhaps retaining superexchange interactions, thus motivating a hypothesis of spin-singlet electron-pair formation at energy scale J as the mechanism of high-temperature superconductivity. Although the response of the superconductors electron-pair wavefunction $Psiequiv<c_uparrow c_downarrow>$ to alterations in E should provide a direct test of such hypotheses, measurements have proven impracticable. Focus has turned instead to the distance ${delta}$ between each Cu atom and the O atom at the apex of its CuO5 pyramid. Varying ${delta}$ should alter the Coulomb potential at the planar Cu and O atoms, modifying E and thus J, and thereby controlling ${Psi}$ in a predictable manner. Here we implement atomic-scale imaging of E and ${Psi}$, both as a function of the periodic modulation in ${delta}$ that occurs naturally in $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+x}$. We demonstrate that the responses of E and ${Psi}$ to varying ${delta}$, and crucially those of ${Psi}$ to the varying E, conform to theoretical predictions. These data provide direct atomic-scale verification that charge-transfer superexchange is key to the electron-pairing mechanism in the hole-doped cuprate superconductor ${Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+x}}$.
Despite more than three decades of tireless efforts, the nature of high-temperature superconductivity (HTS) remains a mystery. A recently proposed long-distance effective field theory, accounting for all the universal features of HTS and the equally
mysterious pseudogap phase, related them to the coexistence of a charge condensate with a condensate of dyons, particles carrying both magnetic and electric charges. Central to this picture are magnetic monopoles emerging in the proximity of the topological quantum superconductor-insulator transition (SIT) that dominates the HTS phase diagram. However, the mechanism responsible for spatially localized electron pairing, characteristic of HTS, remains a puzzle. Here we show that real-space, localized electron pairing is mediated by magnetic monopoles and occurs at temperatures well above the superconducting transition temperature $T_{mathrm c}$. Localized electron pairing promotes the formation of superconducting granules connected by Josephson links. Global superconductivity sets in when these granules form an infinite cluster at $T_{mathrm c}$ which is estimated to fall in the range from hundred to thousand Kelvins. Our findings pave the way to tailoring materials with elevated superconducting transition temperatures.
The pairing mechanism in iron-based superconductors is believed to be unconventional, i.e. not phonon-mediated. The achieved transition temperatures Tc in these superconductors are still significantly below those of some of the cuprates, with the exc
eption of single layer FeSe films on SrTiO3 showing a Tc between 60 and 100 K, i.e. an order of magnitude larger than in bulk FeSe. This enormous increase of Tc demonstrates the potential of interface engineering for superconductivity, yet the underlying mechanism of Cooper pairing is not understood. Both conventional and unconventional mechanisms have been discussed. Here we report a direct measurement of the electron-boson coupling function in FeSe on SrTiO3 using inelastic electron scattering which shows that the excitation spectrum becomes fully gapped below Tc strongly supporting a predominantly electronic pairing mechanism. We also find evidence for strong electron-phonon coupling of low energy electrons, which is however limited to regions near structural domain boundaries.
