Title: Ginzburg-Landau energy of multiband superconductors with interband pairing

Abstract: We derive microscopically the Ginzburg-Landau free energy functional for a superconductor in which the Cooper pairs are formed not only by quasiparticles from the same band, but also by quasiparticles from different bands. In the simplest case of an s-wave or d-wave pairing in a two-band system, the order parameter has three components describing two intraband and one interband pair condensates. The interband pairing-specific terms in the free energy bring about some qualitative changes in the phase diagram, for example, time-reversal symmetry breaking superconducting states are stabilized at low temperatures.
