Abstract
We study the phase transition from a to superconductor using the tight-binding model of two-dimensional cuprates. As the temperature is lowered past the critical temperature , first a superconducting phase is created. With further reduction of temperature, the phase is created at temperature . We study the temperature dependencies of the order parameter, specific heat and spin susceptibility in these mixed-angular-momentum states on square lattice and on a lattice with orthorhombic distortion. The above-mentioned phase transitions are identified by two jumps in specific heat at and .
