Abstract
We derive the Ginzburg-Landau theory of unconventional singlet superb condu ctors in the presence of a Zeeman field and impurities, in order to examine the resulting Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) phases. We show that the behaviour of the FFLO phases in unconventional superconductors in the presence of impurities is qualitatively different from that found for s-wav e superconductors.
