Superconducting properties of the<i>s</i>^±-wave state: Fe-based superconductors

Abstract

-wave gap. In this review, we provide detailed explanations of the theoretical principles for the various non-trivial SC properties of thes±-wave pairing state, and then critically compare the theoretical predictions with experiments on FeSCs. This will provide a pedagogical overview of to what extent we can coherently understand the wide range of different experiments on FeSCs within thes±-wave gap model.
