Electronic structure and energetics of tetragonal SrCuO2and its high-pressure superstructure phase

Journal of Physics-Condensed Matter, 23(46), 465503.

Contributors: J. Wang*, Z. Rak*, F. Zhang*, R. Ewing* & U. Becker*

TL;DR: The detailed analysis of the electronic band structures of the simple tetragonal and superstructure phases suggests that the out-of-plane buckling of the O atoms in the superstructure leads to significant decrease in the O p-Cu d orbital overlap, allowing the energy of the system to be lowered, which is necessary for the structural stability.
