“…In situation like this, we relied on the following strategy: Firstly, we retained the LMTO values of in-plane O-O interactions that were successfully used in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6+x [19] (although we were well aware that the effective V 1 , V 2 , and V 3 interactions might indeed be of different values in Y 0.8 (Ca) 0.2 Ba 2 Cu 3 O 6+x ), because we primarily wanted to examine applicability of the model (3) when combined with the ASYNNNI model of inplane oxygen ordering, and, secondly, given the fact that l opt (τ) rapidly increases with τ lowering (as shown in Figure 1 of reference [26] -the results of our the most recent analyses show that l opt (τ) scales with ≈exp(2│V 2 │/k B B T)), we attached to τ RT a lower value than in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6+x system in order to open a way for a broader range of l min values to produce monotonically increasing p ch (x) and p(x)=(b eff /2)+p ch (x). We thus arrived at τ RT =0.38 that might be adopted as a relatively acceptable estimation for τ RT as it opens a way for l min =3, 4, or 5 to be producing a monotonic behavior of p ch (x), since at τ=0.38 the l opt (τ) falls at some point between 6 and 7 (as shown in Figure 1 of reference [26] , and yet such a development has not been grounded, at least in a persuasive way, upon available experimental data [16] (although the ortho-II phase has indeed been clearly detected in Y 0.8 (Ca) 0.2 Ba 2 Cu 3 O 6+x , as mentioned previously). Furthermore, taking into account that l min =4, or, alternatively, l min =5, have recently been shown to successfully account for both 60K and 90K plateaus in the YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6+x system [22,26], we were of opinion that introduction of ≈20% of Ca ions would not affect that drastically the chain's ability to trigger the charge transfer process, i.e.…”
