Abstract

We have fit our first principles LAPW band structure results for the high Tc superconductor La2CuO4 to a tight-binding Hamiltonian that contains s, p, and d interactions from the three components of these materials. Our fit reproduces very accurately the 17 lower bands of this material and especially the Fermi surface.
