Side-gate modulation of critical current in mesoscopic Josephson junction
We study the normal state conductance and the Josephson current in a superconductor-2DEG-superconductor structure where the size/shape of the 2DEG-region can be modified by an additional side-gate electrode. The considered transport properties follow from the retarded Green function which we compute by employing a tight-binding-like representation of the Hamiltonian in the 2DEG region. Our mode...
متن کاملCritical Josephson Current in a Model Pb/YBCO Junction
In this article we consider a simple model for a c–axis Pb/YBa2Cu3O7−δ Josephson junction. The observation of a nonzero current in such a junction by Sun et al. [A. G. Sun, D. A. Gajewski, M. B. Maple, R. C. Dynes, Phys. Rev. Lett. 72, 2267 (1994)] has been taken as evidence against d–wave superconductivity in YBa2Cu3O7−δ. We suggest, however, that the pairing interaction in the CuO2 planes may...
متن کاملMicroscopic model of critical current noise in Josephson junctions.
We present a simple microscopic model to show how fluctuating two-level systems in a Josephson junction tunnel barrier of thickness L can modify the potential energy of the barrier and produce critical current noise spectra. We find low frequency 1/f noise that goes as L5. Our values are in good agreement with recent experimental measurements of critical current noise in Al/AlOx/Al Josephson ju...
متن کاملCritical current calculations for long 0-π Josephson junctions
A zigzag boundary between a dx2−y2 and an s-wave superconductor is believed to behave like a long Josephson junction with alternating sections of 0 and π symmetry. We calculate the field-dependent critical current of such a junction, using a simple model. The calculation involves discretizing the partial differential equation for the phase difference across a long 0-π junction. In this form, th...
متن کاملCurrent-Induced Chiral Phase Transition in a Josephson-Junction Array
It is predicted that the fully frustrated Josephson-junction array on a square lattice with alternating columns of junctions having a reduced critical current Iweak = μI0(with μ < 1 and I0 the critical current of all other junctions) in certain range of μ will under increasing of the external current first change from the state with zero chirality to the state with nonzero one at the lower crit...
