We present a novel mechanism of s-wave pairing in Fe-based superconductors. The mechanism involves holes near dxz/dyz pockets only and is applicable primarily to strongly hole doped materials. We argue that as long as the renormalized…

FeSe has been extensively explored as a quantum material, primarily due to the observed highest superconducting transition temperature among Fe-based unconventional superconductors. Nonetheless, the electronic structure and the electron…
Near a Mott transition, strong electron correlations may enhance Cooper pairing. This is demonstrated in the Dynamical Mean Field Theory solution of a twofold-orbital degenerate Hubbard model with inverted Hund's rules on-site exchange,…
We analyze multi-orbital Hubbard models describing Hund's metals, focusing on the ubiquitous occurrence of a charge instability, signalled by a divergent/negative electronic compressibility, in a range of doping from the half-filled Mott…

We propose a way to identify strongly Hund-correlated materials by unveiling a key signature of Hund correlations at the two-particle level. The defining feature is the {\it sign} of the response of the {\it frozen spin ratio} (the…
Hund's coupling plays a decisive role in shaping electron correlations of multi-orbital systems, giving rise to a class of materials--Hund's metals--that combine local-moment physics with metallic transport. Here we derive an effective…
Strong correlation effects caused by Hund's coupling have been actively studied during the past decade. Hund's metal, strongly correlated while far from the Mott insulating limit, was studied as a representative example. However, recently,…
