c axis superfluid response of Copper-Oxide superconductors
  A novel interplay between d-wave superconducting order parameter symmetry and the underlying Cu 3d orbital based electronic structure of Copper-Oxides leads to a striking anisotropy in the superfluid response of these systems. In clean tetragonal materials the c-axis penetration depth increases as T^5 at low temperature T, in contrast to linear T behavior in the ab-plane. Disorder is a relevant perturbation which causes all components of the superfluid response to depend quadratically on temperature at low temperature. However, the cross-over temperature scale from the intrinsic d-wave behavior to the disorder dominated behavior for the in-plane response may be different from that for the out-plane response.
