We carry out extensive first-principles doping-dependent computations of angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) intensities in La₂₋ₓSrₓCuO₄ over a wide range of binding energies. Intercell hopping and the associated three dimensionality, which is usually neglected in discussing cuprate physics, is shown to play a key role in shaping the ARPES spectra. Despite the obvious importance of strong coupling effects (e.g., the presence of a lower Hubbard band coexisting with midgap states in the doped insulator), a number of salient features of the experimental ARPES spectra are captured to a surprising extent when kz dispersion is properly included in the analysis.

Fermi surface (FS) maps and spectral intensities obtained recently in Nd₂₋ₓCeₓCuO₄±δ via high resolution ARPES measurements are analyzed using mean-field Hartree Fock and self-consistent renormalization computations within the framework of the one-band t-t′-t″-U Hubbard model Hamiltonian. We show that the remarkable observed crossover of the FS from small to large sheets reflects a reduction in the value of the effective Hubbard U with increasing electron doping and the collapse of the correlation induced Mott pseudogap just above optimal doping.
