Superfluid Suppression in d-Wave Superconductors due to Disordered Magnetism

The influence of static magnetic correlations on the temperature-dependent superfluid density ρₛ(T) is calculated for d-wave superconductors. In self-consistent calculations, itinerant holes form incommensurate spin density waves (SDW) which coexist with superconductivity. In the clean limit, the density of states is gapped, and ρₛ(T << Tc) is exponentially activated. In inhomogeneously-doped cases, the SDW are disordered and both the density of states and ρₛ(T) obtain forms indistinguishable from those in dirty but pure d-wave superconductors, in accordance with experiments. We conclude that the observed collapse of ρₛ at x≈ 0.35 in underdoped YBCO may plausibly be attributed to the coexistence of SDW and superconductivity.
