Abstract

We analyze the generic features of the energy spectrum for two coupled CuO2 layers with a realistic extended Hubbard model. The quasiparticle bands exhibit flat regions near X(Y) points in the Brillouin zone with a large reduction of the bonding-antibonding splitting and pinning of extended van Hove singularity to the Fermi level, which is more efficient for bilayers than for a single layer. In contrast to the results with simpler models, the superconducting temperature for dx2−y2 pairing is not lowered by the bilayer hopping. © 1996 The American Physical Society.
