Abstract

We have carried out first-principles calculations of the Compton scattering spectra to demonstrate that the filling of the hole Fermi surface in LaO1−xFxFeAs produces a distinct signature in the Fourier-transformed Compton spectrum when the momentum transfer vector lies along the [100] direction. We thus show how the critical concentration xc, where hole Fermi-surface pieces are filled up and the superconductivity mediated by antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations is expected to be suppressed, can be obtained in a bulk-sensitive manner.
