The density-of-states at the Fermi energy, $N(E_F)$, is low in doped superconducting semiconductors and high-$T_C$ cuprates. This contrasts with the common view that superconductivity requires a large electron-boson coupling $\lambda$ and…

The recently discovered Fe-based superconductor (FeBS) LaFe2As2 seems to break away from an established pattern that doping FeBS beyond 0.2e/Fe destroys superconductivity. LaFe2As2 has an apparent doping of 0.5e, yet superconducts at 12.1…
