In d-wave superconductors, the electronic density of states (DOS) induced by a vortex exhibits 1/|E| divergency at low energies. It is the result of gap nodes in the excitations spectrum outside the vortex core. The heat capacity in two…
We study the quasiparticle resonance states near strong impurities in the mixed state of a d-wave superconductor. These states give rise to zero-bias peaks in the local density of states, observed in scanning tunneling microscopy…
Motivated by recent pump-probe experiments we consider the processes by which "hot" quasiparticles produced near the antinodes of a d-wave superconductor can relax. We show that in a large region of momentum space processes which break…
We have calculated the density of states of quasiparticles in a d_x^2-y^2+id_xy superconductor, and show that in the mixed state the quasiparticle spectrum remains gapless because of the Doppler shift by superflow. It was found that if the…
