Band structure of (Sr3Sc2O5)Fe2As2 as a possible parent phase for new FeAs superconductors

By means of first-principles FLAPW-GGA calculations, we have investigated the electronic properties of the newly synthesized layered phase - (Sr3Sc2O5)Fe2As2. The electronic bands, density of states and Fermi surface have been evaluated. The resembling of our data for (Sr3Sc2O5)Fe2As2 with band structure pictures of known FeAs superconducting materials may be considered as the theoretical background specifying the possibility for (Sr3Sc2O5)Fe2As2 to become a parent phase for new FeAs superconductors.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures, 3 table
