“…Lattice and magnetic order in the parent compounds of iron-based superconductors From a crystal structure point of view, the parent compounds of iron-based superconductors can be classified into five different families: RFeAsO (R = La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm,..., the 1111 system), AFe 2 As 2 (A = Ba, Sr, Ca, K, the 122 system), AFeAs (A = Li, Na, the 111 system), Fe 1+y Te 1−x Se x (the 11 system), and A x Fe 2−y Se 2 alkali iron selenides (A = K, Rb, Cs, Tl, ..., including the insulating 245 phase A 2 Fe 4 Se 5 and the semiconducting 234 phase A 2 Fe 3 Se 4 ) (Aswathy et al, 2010;Dagotto, 2013;Johnston, 2010;Paglione and Greene, 2010;Sadovskii, 2008;Stewart, 2011;Wang et al, 2014;Zhao et al, 2012), where the 122 and 245 compounds have two FeAs(Se) layers in the unit cell and other systems have single FeAs(Se) layer. A recent development in the field is the synthesis of iron selenide superconductors via intercalation of molecular complexes between layers of FeSe (BurrardLucas et al, 2013;Krzton-Maziopa et al, 2012;Ying et al, 2012).…”
