The abstract of Phys. Rev. Lett. 121, 157001 (2018) claims to demonstrate, using ab initio computations, a new trend suggesting that the cuprates with stronger out-of-CuO$_{2}$-plane chemical bonding between the apical anion (O, Cl) and apical cation (e.g., La, Hg, Bi, Tl) are generally correlated with higher $T_{c,max}$ in experiments. We point out that this trend is included in the long-known [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 047003 (2001)] correlation of $T_{c,max}$ with the hopping range of the electrons at (the most interlayer-bonding sheet of) the Fermi-surface. Contrary to the impression given in Phys. Rev. Lett. 121, 157001 (2018), the correlation mentioned in Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 047003 (2001) is not simply with the distance, $d_{A},$ of apical oxygen from the nearest CuO$_{2}$ plane; but rather, as stated in the abstract of Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 047003 (2001), It is controlled by the energy of the axial orbital, a hybrid between Cu 4$s$, apical-oxygen 2$p_{z},$ and farther orbitals.

In high Tc superconductors the magnetic and electronic properties are determined by the probability that valence electrons virtually jump from site to site in the CuO2 planes, a mechanism opposed by on-site Coulomb repulsion and favored by hopping in
tegrals. The spatial extent of the latter is related to transport properties, including superconductivity, and to the dispersion relation of spin excitations (magnons). Here, for three antiferromagnetic parent compounds (single-layer Bi2Sr0.99La1.1CuO6+delta, double-layer Nd1.2Ba1.8Cu3O6 and infinite-layer CaCuO2) differing by the number of apical atoms, we compare the magnetic spectra measured by resonant inelastic x-ray scattering over a significant portion of the reciprocal space and with unprecedented accuracy. We observe that the absence of apical oxygens increases the in-plane hopping range and, in CaCuO2, it leads to a genuine 3D exchange-bond network. These results establish a corresponding relation between the exchange interactions and the crystal structure, and provide fresh insight into the materials dependence of the superconducting transition temperature.
Charge order in cuprate superconductors is a possible source of anomalous electronic properties in the underdoped regime. Intra-unit cell charge ordering tendencies point to electronic nematic order involving oxygen orbitals. In this context we inves
tigate charge instabilities in the Emery model and calculate the charge susceptibility within diagrammatic perturbation theory. In this approach, the onset of charge order is signalled by a divergence of the susceptibility. Our calculations reveal three different kinds of order: a commensurate ($q=0$) nematic order, and two incommensurate nematic phases with modulation wavevectors that are either axial or oriented along the Brillouin zone diagonal. We examine the nematic phase diagram as a function of the filling, the interaction parameters, and the band structure. We also present results for the excitation spectrum near the nematic instability, and show that a soft nematic mode emerges from the particle-hole continuum at the transition. The Fermi surface reconstructions that accompany the modulated nematic phases are discussed with respect to their relevance for magneto-oscillation and photoemission measurements. The modulated nematic phases that emerge from the three-band Emery model are compared to those found previously in one-band models.
Using a mix of numerical and analytic methods, we show that recent NMR $^{17}$O measurements provide detailed information about the structure of the charge-density wave (CDW) phase in underdoped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$. We perform Bogoliubov-de Gennes
(BdG) calculations of both the local density of states and the orbitally resolved charge density, which are closely related to the magnetic and electric quadrupole contributions to the NMR spectrum, using a microscopic model that was shown previously to agree closely with x-ray experiments. The BdG results reproduce qualitative features of the experimental spectrum extremely well. These results are interpreted in terms of a generic hotspot model that allows one to trace the origins of the NMR lineshapes. We find that four quantities---the orbital character of the Fermi surface at the hotspots, the Fermi surface curvature at the hotspots, the CDW correlation length, and the magnitude of the subdominant CDW component---are key in determining the lineshapes.
To understand the origin of unconventional charge-density-wave (CDW) states in cuprate superconductors, we establish the self-consistent CDW equation, and analyze the CDW instabilities based on the realistic Hubbard model, without assuming any $q$-de
pendence and the form factor. Many higher-order many-body processes, which are called the vertex corrections, are systematically generated by solving the CDW equation. When the spin fluctuations are strong, the uniform $q=0$ nematic CDW with $d$-form factor shows the leading instability. The axial nematic CDW instability at $q = Q_a = (delta,0)$ ($delta approx pi/2$) is the second strongest, and its strength increases under the static uniform CDW order. The present theory predicts that uniform CDW transition emerges at a high temperature, and it stabilize the axial $q = Q_a$ CDW at $T = T_{CDW}$. It is confirmed that the higher-order Aslamazov-Larkin processes cause the CDW orders at both $q = 0$ and $Q_a$.
Comparison of recent experimental STM data with single-impurity and many-impurity Bogoliubov-de Gennes calculations strongly suggests that random out-of-plane dopant atoms in cuprates modulate the pair interaction locally. This type of disorder is cr
ucial to understanding the nanoscale electronic structure inhomogeneity observed in BSCCO-2212, and can reproduce observed correlations between the positions of impurity atoms and various aspects of the local density of states such as the gap magnitude and the height of the coherence peaks. Our results imply that each dopant atom modulates the pair interaction on a length scale of order one lattice constant.
