Relaxation energies for photoemission where an occupied electronic state is excited and for inverse photoemission where an empty state is filled are calculated within the density-functional theory with application to Nd₂₋ₓCeₓCuO₄. The associated relaxation energies are obtained by computing differences in total energies between the ground state and an excited state in which one hole or one electron is added into the system. The relaxation energies of f electrons are found to be of the order of several eV’s, indicating that f bands will appear substantially away from the Fermi energy (EF) in their spectroscopic images, even if …
