Physical Mechanism of the d->d+is Transition

Superconductivity 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We discuss the basic physical mechanism of the d->d+is transition, which is the currently accepted explanation for the results of tunneling experiments into abab planes. Using the first-order perturbation theory, we show that the zero-bias states drive the transition. We present various order-of-magnitude estimates and consistency checks that support this picture.
