High-resolution Auger electron spectra of La1.85Sr0.15CuO4 and La1.85Ba0.15CuO4 have been measured. The experimental Auger line shapes of the oxygen KLL and copper L2,3VV transitions are compared with those generated from local-density-approximation linear-muffin-tin-orbital band-structure calculations. An analysis based on this comparison is used to determine the Coulomb parameters Up and Ud of the oxygen and copper atoms, respectively. For this purpose, an extended version of Cini and Sawatzky’s expression for the theoretical Auger line shape is used, taking into account the multiplet structure of the Auger final …
