Reply to Comment by Calandra et al on "Electronic Structure of Superconducting KC8 and Nonsuperconducting LiC6 Graphite Intercalation Compounds: Evidence for a Graphene-Sheet-Driven Superconducting State"

Abstract

In their comment Calandra et al Calandra, assert two points: (1) the estimate of charge transfer from Li to graphene layers in LiC6 in our letter Pan2011c is incorrect because of the three dimensional (3D) character of the electronic structure in bulk LiC6; (2) our main claim that the superconductivity in graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) is graphene-sheet-driven is therefore invalid.
