Quasiparticle Delocalization Induced by Novel Quantum Interference in Disordered d-Wave Superconductors
arXiv:cond-mat/0211078 · doi:10.1209/epl/i2003-00485-9
Abstract
The diagrammatic approach is applied to study quasiparticle transport properties in two-dimensional d-wave superconductors with dilute nonmagnetic impurities both in Born and in unitary limits. It is found that a novel quantum interference process gives rise to a weak-antilocalization correction to the spin conductivity, indicating the existence of extended low-energy quasiparticle states. With comimg close to unitarity and the nesting, this correction is suppressed and eventually vanishes due to the global particle-hole symmetry.
