We report the inelastic light scattering studies on SmFeAsO0.65 and SmFeAsO0.77H0.12 with iron isotopes namely 54Fe and 57Fe. In both of these systems under investigation we observed a significant shift in the frequency of the phonon modes associated with the displacement of Fe atoms around ~ 200 cm-1. The observed shift in the Fe mode (B1g) for SmFeAsO0.65 is ~ 1.4 % and lower in case of SmFeAsO0.77H0.12, which is ~ 0.65 %, attributed to the lower percentage of isotopic substitution in case of SmFeAsO0.77H0.12. Our study reveals the significant iron isotope effect in these systems hinting towards the crucial role of electron-phonon coupling in the pairing mechanism of iron based superconductors.

We have theoretically explored the intrinsic spin Hall effect (SHE) in the iron-based superconductor family with a variety of materials. The study is motivated by an observation that, in addition to an appreciable spin-orbit coupling in the Fe 3d sta tes, a character of the band structure in which Dirac cones appear below the Fermi energy may play a crucial role in producing a large SHE. Our investigation does indeed predict a substantially large spin Hall conductivity in the heavily hole-doped regime such as KFe$_2$As$_2$. The magnitude of the SHE has turned out to be comparable with that for Pt despite a relatively small spin-orbit coupling, which we identify to come from a huge contribution from the gap opening induced by the spin-orbit coupling at the Dirac point, which can become close to the Fermi energy for the heavy hole doping.
We present a numerical study of the isotope effect on the angle resolved photoemission spectra (ARPES) in the undoped cuprates. By the systematic-error-free Diagrammatic Monte Carlo method, the Lehman spectral function of a single hole in the ttt-J m odel in the regime of intermediate and strong couplings to optical phonons is calculated for normal and isotope substituted systems. We found that the isotope effect is strongly energy-momentum dependent, and is anomalously enhanced in the intermediate coupling regime while it approaches to that of the localized hole model in the strong coupling regime. We predict the strengths of effect as well as the fine details of the ARPES lineshape change. Implications to the doped case are also discussed.

Iron-based superconducting layered compounds have the second highest transition temperature after cuprate superconductors. Their discovery is a milestone in the history of high-temperature superconductivity and will have profound implications for hig h-temperature superconducting mechanism as well as industrial applications. Raman scattering has been extensively applied to correlated electron systems including the new superconductors due to its unique ability to probe multiple primary excitations and their coupling. In this review, we will give a brief summary of the existing Raman experiments in the iron-based materials and their implication for pairing mechanism in particular. And we will also address some open issues from the experiments.
In a recent paper Yanagisawa et al. [1] claim from a theoretical analysis of a multi-channel multi-band superconductor model that an inverse isotope exponent on the superconducting transition temperature Tc can be realized in iron-based superconducto rs. Simultaneously, a subgroup of the authors of Ref. 1 performed the corresponding isotope effect experiment on (Ba, K)Fe2As2 by investigating the iron isotope exchange effect on Tc [2]. In accordance with their theoretical analysis they indeed report an unusually large sign reversed isotope exponent of {alpha} simeq -0.18(3) which is in strong contrast to previous experiments on the nominally same system with the same composition in Ba, K content, namely Ba0.6K0.4Fe2As2 [3], where the exponent was determined to be {alpha} simeq 0.37(3). This conflict remains unsolved until now with the exception of Ref. 4 where the iron isotope exponent has been determined for FeSe. In accordance with the results of Ref. 3 a large positive isotope exponent has been seen thus questioning the outcome of Ref. 1 and implicitly the findings of Ref. 2. Here, we do not comment on the controversial experimental situation but address the theoretical analysis of Ref. 1, where a variety of misleading assumptions have led to the conclusion that a sign reversed isotope exponent can be realized in a multi-band and multi-channel attractive model for iron based superconductors.

High temperature superconductivity in iron pnictides and chalcogenides emerges when a magnetic phase is suppressed. The multi-orbital character and the strength of correlations underlie this complex phenomenology, involving magnetic softness and anis otropies, with Hunds coupling playing an important role. We review here the different theoretical approaches used to describe the magnetic interactions in these systems. We show that taking into account the orbital degree of freedom allows us to unify in a single phase diagram the main mechanisms proposed to explain the (pi,0) order in iron pnictides: the nesting-driven, the exchange between localized spins, and the Hund induced magnetic state with orbital differentiation. Comparison of theoretical estimates and experimental results helps locate the Fe superconductors in the phase diagram. In addition, orbital physics is crucial to address the magnetic softness, the doping dependent properties, and the anisotropies.
