Evidence for the Existence of the Josephson Quasiparticle-Pair Interference Current

  • Chapter
Low Temperature Physics-LT 13

Abstract

Josephson1 predicted that the total current density j for an oxide tunnel junction will depend on the phase difference ΓΈ between the two superconductors forming the junction and has the form

$$j={{j}_{1}}\sin \phi +[{{\sigma }_{0}}(V)+{{\sigma }_{1}}(V)\cos \phi ]V$$
