Abstract

We argue that Raman scattering in B1g symmetry allows one to distinguish between phonon-mediated and magnetically mediated d-wave superconductivity. In spin-mediated superconductors, B1g Raman intensity develops a resonance at a frequency Ωres<2Δmax, whose origin is similar to a neutron resonance. In phonon-mediated d-wave superconductors, such a resonance does not develop. Several extensions of the argument are presented.
