Abstract

The one-hole valence spectrum of YBa2Cu3O7 is calculated using an accurate tight-binding hamiltonian and a Hubbard model to treat correlation effects. Intra-atomic Coulomb integrals for holes sitting on Cu or O sites are considered and the one-hole self-energy is computed in the low density approximation. The calculated spectrum is compared with photoemission and X-ray emission experiments. This allows to point out a number of problems that arise in assigning the observed structures to a specific atom and to understand some aspects of the data. To evaluate the role of the surface in determining the shape of the photoemission energy distribution curves, the one-hole spectrum is calculated for the Ba-O4 surface. Oxygen induced surface states are shown to be important in determining the intensity of the observed structures.
