Minimal electronic models for superconducting BiS layers

arXiv:1207.3888 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.86.220501

Abstract

We construct minimal electronic models for a newly discovered superconductor LaOFBiS ( 10.6K) possessing BiS layers based on first principles band calculation. First, we obtain a model consisting of two Bi and two S orbitals, which give nearly electron-hole symmetric bands. Further focusing on the bands that intersect the Fermi level, we obtain a model with two orbitals. The two bands (per BiS layer) have quasi-one-dimensional character with a double minimum dispersion, which gives good nesting of the Fermi surface. At around the topology of the Fermi surface changes, so that the density of states at the Fermi level becomes large. Possible pairing states are discussed.
