Abstract

We present a brief review of the phase diagrams of the transition metal, electron-doped BaFe(2)As(2) systems and a comparison between them. This article also reviews the phase diagrams of hole-and isoelectronic-doped BaFe(2)As(2), as well as BaFe(2)As(2) under pressure. Empirical rules on the conditions necessary to induce superconductivity in this material are outlined. Evidence for multiple Lifshitz transitions in Co-doped BaFe(2)As(2) and possible connections to superconductivity are also discussed.
