Abstract
The Josephson current between d-wave superconductors is investigated in the framework of tight-binding lattice model. The junction is modelled by a small number of connecting bonds. It is obtained that the Josephson current through one bond vanishes when at least one of the superconductors has (110) interface-to-crystal orientation. Interference between the nearest bonds is appeared to be very important. In particular, it is the interference term that leads to the nonzero Josephson current for (110) orientation. Also, interference of two connecting bonds manifests itself in non-monotonic behavior of the critical Josephson current in dependence on the distance between the bonds.
