62. A similar situation occurs in the decay of d holes in Cu (see I. Campillo, A. Rubio, J. M. Pitarke, A. Goldmann, P. M. Echenique, Phys. Rev. Lett. 2000, 85, 3241; A. Gerlach, K. Berge, A. Goldmann, I. Campillo, A. Rubio, J. M. Pitarke, P. M. Echenique, Phys. Rev. B 2001, 64, 85 423). The small overlap between d and sp states below the Fermi level is found to be responsible for a long lifetime of d holes, especially at the top of the d band where the d hole can only couple with sp states below the Fermi level.
