Iron-based Superconductors

Iron-Based Superconductors is a class of high-temperature superconducting materials in which the superconducting state emerges from electron systems strongly correlated within iron-containing layers, distinguished from other unconventional superconductors by the central role of iron orbitals in mediating superconductivity.
