Description

The exchanging coupling mechanism for La2CuO4 has been studied by employing unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) and configuration interaction method. The coupling constant J was calculated by using copper cluster models. It is shown that exchange interactions between the dx2-y2 orbitals play a very important role in the exchange coupling of La2CuO4 and O to dx2-y2 excitations have secondary important in the La2CuO4 ground state. The coupling constant calculated in this work was in good agreement with the experimental value
