The extended Huckel molecular orbital theory is applied to linear eight atom Ni-Cu alloy chains of varying composition. The results obtained are qualitatively in agreement with recent experiments and with the results of the CPA theory. The work functions of pure Ni and Cu and the magnetic dead layer of pure Ni are discussed in relation to the charge oscillation due to the influence of the surface.
