Abstract

We calculated the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T11/T_1 for the D+iD superconducting state with impurities. We found that small amount of unitary impurities quickly produces the residual density of states inside the gap. As a result, the T-linear behavior in 1/T1_1 is observed at low temperatures. Our results show that the D+iD pairing symmetry of the superconducting state of Na0.35_{0.35}CoO2y_{2} \cdot yH2_2 O is compatible with recent 59^{59}Co 1/T1_1 experiments of several groups.
