The unit cell contains exactly two atoms. By looking at the figure, we can immediately write down the Schrodinger equation relating the probability amplitudes of the atomic orbitals: -$$ E \phi_n = \varepsilon_0 \phi_n - t_1 \psi_n - t_2 \psi_{n-1} $$ -$$ E \psi_n = \varepsilon_0 \psi_n - t_1 \phi_n - t_2 \phi_{n+1} $$ +$$ E \phi_n = \varepsilon_0 \phi_n + t_1 \psi_n + t_2 \psi_{n-1} $$ +$$ E \psi_n = \varepsilon_0 \psi_n + t_1 \phi_n + t_2 \phi_{n+1} $$ 2. This follows directly from substituting the Ansatz -- GitLab
