Abstract
By means of first-principles calculations, we have probed the
peculiarities of the electronic band structure and Fermi surface for the
recently discovered layered superconductor LaO0.5F0.5BiS2 in
comparison with the parent phase LaOBiS2. The electronic factors promoting
the transition of LaOBiS2 upon fluorine doping to superconducting state:
inter-layer charge transfer, the evolution of the Fermi surface, and the
dependence of the near-Fermi densities of states on x for
LaO1-xFxBiS2 are
evaluated and discussed in comparison with the available experiments.
