Abstract

We study a single impurity effect on the local density of states in a d-wave superconductor accounting for the momentum-dependent impurity potential. We show that the anisotropy of the scattering potential can alter significantly the spatial dependence of the quasiparticle density of states in the vicinity of the impurity.
