Abstract

We discuss the static fluctuations of the d-wave superconducting order parameter Δ in CuO 2 planes, due to quasiparticle scattering by charged dopants. The analysis of two-particle anomalous Green functions at T = 0 permits to estimate the mean-square fluctuation δ2 = <Δ2> - <Δ>2, averaged in random dopant configurations, to the lowest order in doping level c. Since Δ is found to saturate with growing doping level while δ remains to grow, this can explain the collapse of Tc at overdoping. Also we consider the spatial correlations <Δ(0)Δ(R)> for order parameter in different points of the plane.
