Abstract

In this paper we first describe the multi-configuration self-consistent field method with configuration interaction (MCSCF-CI) which is a variational method most suitable for strongly-correlated cluster systems. Then the calculated results of CuO 6 cluster embedded in hole-doped La 2-x Sr x CuO 4 and of CuO 4 cluster in the electron-doped Nd 2-x Ce x CuO 4 are reviewed. Finally the calculated results on the electronic structure of CuO 5 pyramid embedded in the insulating YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6 and superconducting YBa2Cu3O7 are newly presented. In the latter case we will clarify an important role of the Cu-O chain in the electronic and superconducting state of YBa2Cu3O7 .
