A correlation has been found between the critical temperature of Fe-based HT superconductors and the positions of the Fe atoms next to the doping element positions. This correlation allows for the prediction of Tc from crystal lattice constants and explains the fractional numbers of the optimum doping concentrations. The equations found indicate that all HTSC share a common resonance mechanism between the de Broglie wavelength of the charge carriers and characteristic directions in the crystal lattice. The theoretically derived coupling constant differs from the experimental results by less than 0.02%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
