19. The electronic structures of K- and Na-doped BaFe 2 As 2 are very similar. ARPES spectra of both compounds are characterized by propellerlike FS at the BZ corner, three holelike bands at the BZ center-all of very close size, similar magnitude and momentum distribution of the superconducting gap including similar k z dependence [partially published in S. Aswartham, Phys. Rev. B 85, 224520 (2012)]. Possible differences between Ba 1-x K x Fe 2 As 2 and Ba 1-x Na x Fe 2 As 2 are insignificant for the analysis presented here PRBMDO 1098-0121 10.1103/PhysRevB.85.224520.

34. Though the shape of the spectrum below T c exhibits significant deviations from the BCS behavior, in particular due to prominent effects of a mode scattering [7] [P. Richard, T. Sato, K. Nakayama, S. Souma, T. Takahashi, Y.-M. Xu, G. F. Chen, J. L. Luo, N. L. Wang, and H. Ding, Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 047003 (2009)], the values of the gap, extracted from the fit of the data to the Dynes function are still reasonable quantitative characteristics of the superconducting state. More detailed investigation of the spectrum shape is the matter of future studies 10.1103/PhysRevLett.102.047003.
