Abstract
We present a self-consistent treatment of pinhole junctions in d-wave superconductors. The current-phase relation j(x)(chi) and tile energy- phase relation E(x)(chi) are studied. At low temperatures there are cr ystal orientations for which the junction is neither an ordinary nor a pi-junction. Connections to experiments are discussed.
