Abstract

Recent STM experiments on Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3O10 observed sharp bound states associated with Zn and Ni impurities, as previously predicted theoretically. Here we extend the theory to the case of a finite concentration of impurities. Using the nonlocal coherent potential approximation, we show that the resonance peak both broadens and shifts as a function of impurity concentration.
