Multiorbital effects on the transport and the superconducting fluctuations in LiFeAs.

The resistivity, Hall effect and transverse magnetoresistance (MR) have been measured in low residual resistivity single crystals of LiFeAs. A comparison with angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy and quantum oscillation data implies that four carrier bands unevenly contribute to the transport. However the scattering rates of the carriers all display the T^2 behavior expected for a Fermi liquid. Near Tc low field deviations of the MR with respect to a H^2 variation permit us to extract the superconducting fluctuation contribution to the conductivity. Though below Tc the anisotropy of superconductivity is rather small, the superconducting fluctuations display a quasi ideal two-dimensional behavior which persists up to 1.4 Tc. These results call for a refined theoretical understanding of the multiband behavior of superconductivity in this pnictide.
