Pnictides have very similar layered structures as the copper-oxygen compounds (known as cuprates), containing alternating layers of FeAs (iron arsenide) compared to alternating layers of CuO (copper oxide) for the cuprates. Both the pnictides and cuprates only become superconducting when significantly "doped" away from an antiferromagnetic parent compound via the addition of impurity atoms.
