Abstract

Photoemission spectra of underdoped and lightly-doped Bi2−zPbzSr2Ca1−xRxCu2O8+y (R=Pr, Er) (BSCCO) have been measured and compared with those of La2−xSrxCuO4 (LSCO). The lower-Hubbard band of the insulating BSCCO, like Ca2CuO2Cl2, shows a stronger dispersion than La2CuO4 from k∼(π∕2,π∕2) to ∼(π,0). The flat band at k∼(π,0) is found generally deeper in BSCCO. These observations together with the Fermi-surface shapes and the chemical potential shifts indicate that the next-nearest-neighbor hopping ∣t′∣ of the single-band model is larger in BSCCO than in LSCO and that ∣t′∣ rather than the super-exchange J influences the pseudogap energy scale.
