  • Title: Nearly free electrons in the layered oxide superconductor Ag5Pb2O6.
    Author: Sutherland M, Mann PD, Bergemann C, Yonezawa S, Maeno Y.
    Journal: Phys Rev Lett; 2006 Mar 10; 96(9):097008. PubMed ID: 16606304.
    Abstract:
    We present first measurements of quantum oscillations in the layered oxide superconductor Ag5Pb2O6. From a detailed angular and temperature dependent study of the de Haas-van Alphen effect we determine the electronic structure and demonstrate that the electron masses are very light, m* approximately 1.2me. The Fermi surface we observe is essentially that expected of nearly free electrons--establishing Ag5Pb2O6 as the first known example of a monovalent, nearly free electron superconductor at ambient pressure.
