Abstract
A detailed Linear Combination of Atomic Orbitals (LCAO) tight-binding model is developed for the layered High-Temperature Superconductor cuprates. The band structure of these materials is described using a sigma-band Hamiltonian employing Cu4s, Cu3dx2-y2, O2px and O2py atomic orbitals. The Fermi level and the shape of the resulting Fermi surface are fitted to recent Angle Resolved Photon Emission Spectroscopy (ARPES) data to realistically determine the dispersion in the conduction band. Electron-electron interactions and, ultimately, Cooper pairing is obtained by introducing a Heitler-London, two-electron exchange between adjacent orbitals within the CuO2 plane. Finally, using the LCAO wavefunctions determined by the band structure fit, the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer type kernel is derived for interatomic exchange.
