Non-local d x y nematicity and the missing electron pocket in FeSe
Abstract The origin of spontaneous electronic nematic ordering provides important information for understanding iron-based superconductors. Here, we analyze a scenario where the d x y orbital strongly contributes to nematic ordering in FeSe. We show that the addition of d x y nematicity to a pure d...
