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…
The quasiparticle density of states (DOS), the energy gap, the superfluid density $\rho_s$, and the localization effect in the s- and d-wave superconductors with non-magnetic impurity in two dimensions (2D) are studied numerically. For…
In the theoretical analyses of impurity effects in superconductors the assumption is usually made that all quantities, except for the Green functions, are slowly varying functions of energy. When this so-called Fermi Surface Restricted…
The local density of states (LDOS) and its Fourier component induced by a unitary impurity in a supercurrent-carrying d-wave superconductor are investigated. Both of these quantities possess a reflection symmetry about the line passing…
The local quasiparticle density of states around a unitary impurity with a Kondo-like magnetic moment induced at its nearest neighbors in a d-wave superconductor is studied within the slave-boson mean-field approach. The Hamiltonian is…
The Kondo effects of an Anderson impurity embedded into a d-wave superconductor is studied. Within the slave-boson mean-field approach, the derived Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations are solved via exact diagonalization. We show that a critical…
A theory for the effect of impurity scattering on electronic Raman scattering in unconventional superconductors is presented. The impurity dependence of the the spectra can be used to to distinguish between conventional (anisotropic…
The absence of localization of impurity-induced low-energy quasiparticle states in a two-dimensional $d$-wave superconductor is argued for any amount of disorder in the limit of unitary scatterers. This surprising result follows from the…
Influence of weak nonmagnetic impurities on the single-particle density of states $\rho(\omega)$ of two-dimensional electron systems with a conical spectrum is studied. We use a nonperturbative approach, based on replica trick with…
The structure of the order parameter and the excitation spectrum are investigated for isolated impurities in d-wave superconductors. Atomic scale impurities, or defects, scatter quasiparticles and lead to local suppression (pair-breaking)…
We consider a model of an Anderson impurity embedded in a $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconducting state to describe the low-energy excitations of cuprate superconductors doped with a small amount of magnetic impurities. Due to the Dirac-like…
The anomalous proximity effect between a d-wave superconductor and a surface layer with small electronic mean free path is studied theoretically in the framework of the Eilenberger equations. The angular and spatial structure of the pair…
We study the effects of single-impurity scattering on the local density of states in the high-$T_c$ cuprates. We compare the quasiparticle interference patterns in three different ordered states: d-wave superconductor (DSC), d-density wave…
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,…
We study a single impurity effect on the local density of states in a d-wave superconductor accounting for the momentum-dependent impurity potential. We show that the anisotropy of the scattering potential can alter significantly the…
We study the quasiparticle transport coefficients in disordered d-wave superconductors. We find that spin and charge excitations are generally localized unless magnetic impurities are present. If the system is close to a nesting point in…
The effect of a nonmagnetic impurity on the subgap electronic spectrum in a d-wave superconductor in the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state is investigated. In a pure system, the spatial variation of the order parameter (OP) of the FFLO…
We present a mean-field theoretical study on the effect of a single non-magnetic impurity in quasi-one dimensional unconventional density wave. The local scattering potential is treated within the self-consistent $T$-matrix approximation.…
Nonmagnetic impurities in d-wave superconductors cause strong local suppressions of the order parameter. We investigate the observable effects of the scatterigng off such suppressions in bulk samples by treating the order parameter "hole"…
We study the properties of a quantum impurity embedded in a superconducting host of a d-wave symmetry. The superconductor is described by the extended negative $U$ Hubbard model while the impurity introduces a repulsive interaction to the…
