The iron-based superconductor CaKFe4As4 is one of the most famous representative of the new 1144 family of the iron pnictides. Because of the combination of alcali and alcaline-earth metals CaKFe4As4 is hole-doped itself and reaches a transition temperature of Tc=35 K [1]. We calculate ab initio the electronic structure and internal parameters by using density functional theory for several magnetic configurations. In contrast to other iron-based superconductors we find that the dxy-orbital contributes not much to the Fermi-surface, whereas the dx2−y2- and dz2-orbitals are showing a strong contribution. This behavior is related to the shift of the FeAs-layer away from its high-symmetry position [2]. Hereby we focus on the orbital-resolved electronic band-structure to estimate the strength of the electronic interactions.
