The optical properties are studied within the two-dimensional two-band model with the antiferromagnetic exchange interaction between nearest-neighbor d and p spins in the Cu-O sheet. The optical-absorption spectra are computed within the mean-field theory with the periodic boundary condition. An insulating gap of about 1.7 eV appears for nondoping. A Drude peak appears for a single p hole. The Drude peak and the in-gap state appear for two p holes. The intensity of the charge-transfer band decreases, while those of the Drude peak and the in-gap state increase with doping. It turns out that the strong Coulomb repulsion and the d[sub x][sup 2]-y[sup 2] orbital are important such as the p[sub x] or p[sub y] orbital in the electronic properties of high-Tc copper oxides. 10 refs., 2 figs.
