Spin/Orbital correlation and glide translational symmetry of Fe-based superconductors
Wei Ku, BNL & KITP

This talk will present theoretical studies of electronic structure of Fe-based superconductors. It will first establish the basic spin/orbital correlation of the parent compound [1] that is now known to also persist in the doped superconducting samples. It will then discuss the rich magnetic correlation in the families [2], followed by our recent finding of surprising effects of nesting of the itinerant electrons [3]. Finally, the talk will discuss the novel physical effects of the glide translational symmetry of the system on the electronic structure [4] and the novel pairing structure [5], highlighting a new class of superconducting state. I will leave the topic of novel physical effects due to disordered impurities [6-9] to private discussion after the talk.
