We discuss the effect of a secondary component of the superconducting order parameter on the superfluid density in the cuprates. If we assume a main $d_{x^2-y^2}$ gap, the most stable realization of a mixed order parameter has a…
We study the properties of an anisotropically paired superconductor in the presence of a specularly reflecting surface. The bulk stable phase of the superconducting order parameter is taken to have $d_{x^2-y^2}$ symmetry. Contributions by…
We investigate the properties of spontaneous currents generated at surfaces and interfaces of d-wave superconductors using the self-consistent quasiclassical Eilenberger equations. The influence of the roughness and reflectivity of the…
The recent observation of an inflection point in the temperature dependence of the in-plane magnetic field dependence (lambda_ab) is investigated within a two-band model with coupled order parameters of different symmetries. While the…
We consider different effects that arise when time-reversal symmetry breaking superconductors are subjected to an external magnetic field, thus rendering the superconductor to be in the mixed state. We focus in particular on two…
We theoretically study effects of surface roughness on the magnetic response of small unconventional superconductors by solving the Eilenberger equation for the quassiclassical Green function and the Maxwell equation for the vector…
The superconducting order parameter and LDOS spectra near an impenetrable surface are studied on the basis of selfconsistent calculations for a two band superconductor with nodeless extended s-+wave order parameter symmetry, as possibly…
We examine the role of order-parameter suppression in the development of low-energy peaks (i.e., resonances) in the tunneling density of states near a non-magnetic impurity in a d-wave superconductor. Without order-parameter suppression,…
In this paper we study the order parameter and density of states near a grain boundary between two $d_{x^2-y^2}$ superconductors. We examine broken time reversal symmetry near the interface. In particular we show that, under suitable…
The single-impurity problem in d-wave superconductors with asymmetric bands is discussed. The effect of local order parameter suppression near the impurity is to shift the quasiparticle resonance. Contrary to previous work [A. Shnirman et…
We studied the effects of nonmagnetic impurities on high-temperature superconductors by solving the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations on a two-dimensional lattice via exact diagonalization technique in a fully self-consistent way. We found…
We study the superconducting phase with two component order parameter scenario, such as, $d_{x^2-y^2} + e^{i\theta}s_{\alpha}$, where $\alpha = xy, x^2+y^2$. We show, that in absence of orthorhombocity, the usual $d_{x^2-y^2}$ does not mix…
We study the effect of surface scattering on transport properties in many-mode conducting channels (electron waveguides). Assuming a strong roughness of the surface profiles, we show that there are two independent control parameters that…
Non-magnetic impurities are known as strong pair breakers in superconductors with pure d-wave pairing symmetry. Here we discuss d-wave states under the combined influence of impurities and competing instabilities, such as pairing in a…
The pairing symmetry of Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ is a long-standing fundamental question in the physics of superconducting materials with strong electronic correlations. We use the functional renormalization group to investigate the behavior of…
We discuss the rough surface effects on a two-dimensional chiral $k_x+ik_y$ superconductor. The atomic scale roughness at the surface is considered using the random $S$ matrix model. The roughness effects on the self-consistent order…
In order to examine the influences of the spatial dependence of the pair potential, the d.c. Josephson current in d-wave superconductors is calculated using self-consistently determined pair potentials. The results show that the suppression…
A boundary between two d-wave superconductors or an s-wave and a d-wave superconductor generally breaks time-reversal symmetry and can generate spontaneous currents due to proximity effect. On the other hand, surfaces and interfaces in…
We propose and implement a direct experimental test for subdominant superconducting phases with broken time-reversal symmetry in d-wave superconductors. The critical current of 45-degree asymmetric grain boundary junctions are shown to be…
We investigate the symmetry of the superconducting order parameter in the proximity of a phase-separation or of an incommensurate charge-density-wave instability. The attractive effective interaction at small or intermediate transferred…
