Abstract

Ab initio molecular orbital calculations of oxygen 2p hole states of small CuO clusters representing the chains and planes in YBa2Cu3O7−x are reported. The results suggest that the absorption observed at 0.37 eV in reflectivity studies of YBa2Cu3O7−x may be due to excitation of these holes between inequivalent oxygen sites.
