Abstract

The effect of impurities on a superconductor with Bogoliubov Fermi surfaces (BFSs) is studied using a realistic tight-binding model. Based on the band structure composed of d-orbitals in tetragonal FeSe, whose S-doped sample is a potential material for a BFS, we construct the superconducting state by introducing a time-reversal broken pair potential in terms of the band index. We further consider the effect of impurities on the BFS, where the impurity potential is defined as a local potential for the original d-orbitals. The self-energy is calculated using the (self-consistent) Born approximation, which shows an enhancement of the single-particle spectral weight on the Fermi surface. This is consistent with the previous phenomenological theory and is justified by the present more detailed calculation based on the FeSe-based material.
