Abstract

The core photoemission spectrum of a copper +2 impurity embedded in a square lattice of oxygen -2 has been calculated using an extended Anderson impurity Hamiltonian including a Cu 3d hole-O 2p hole repulsive interaction. Comparison with experimental data shows that the ground state of the system is a mixed-valent insulator in the absence of hole doping, in spite of the Cu 3d level being within the oxygen 2p-derived band. Doping of an extra hole induces a transition to a weakly mixed-valent metallic state with drastic modifications in the calculated core-level spectrum.
