Abstract

We have described the major features of the Fermi surfaces of the high-Tc cuprates. The description in momentum space and use of Fermiology allows us to analyze the large anisotropy and multiband structure of the new materials. These properties are crucial because of the extremely small values of the coherence length. The Fermi surface can be reconstructed with the use of experimental data. Based on this method, we have evaluated the parameters such as effective mass, Fermi energy, Fermi velocity, and coherence length and estimated them for La1.8Sr0.2CuO4 and Y1Ba2Cu3O7 with the use of heat capacity and Hall effect measurements.
