Abstract
Nonmonotonic and even sign-changing dependences on the temperature and the doping level were predicted for the stationary Josephson tunnel current Ic between superconductors with d-wave order parameter symmetry and partial gapping by charge density waves (CDWs). The junction electrodes were considered in the framework of the two-dimensional electron spectrum appropriate to high-Tc cuprates. The non-trivial behavior can be observed for certain relative electrode orientations. Hence, Ic-measurements in wide ranges of doping and temperature may serve as an indicator of CDW existence.
