Roberto Monaco, Carmine Granata, Antonio Vettoliere, Jesper Mygind

摘要:

本文研究了在最一般的椭圆环情况下,一维平面约瑟夫森隧道结的静态特性。我们分析了在结平面或垂直方向上施加外部磁场时临界电流的依赖性。我们报告了一个详细的研究短和长椭圆环形路口具有不同的偏心率。对于具有归一化周长小于1的结,即使在具有一个被捕获的约瑟夫森涡旋的情况下,也导出并计算了阈值曲线。对于较长的结进行数值分析后,适当的扰动sine-Gordon方程的推导。对于一个给定的应用领域,我们发现,一些不同的相位分布存在不同的根据磁通反磁通对的数量。我们证明了在由镜面对称电极制成的样品中,横向磁场等效于在电流方向上施加的面内场。改变椭圆的偏心率,我们重现所有已知的线性和环形约瑟夫森隧道结的结果。在考虑自场效应的情况下,高质量Nb/Al-AlOx/Nb椭圆环形结的实验数据支持了理论分析。

英文摘要:

We have investigated the static properties of one-dimensional planar Josephson tunnel junctions in the most general case of elliptic annuli. We have analyzed the dependence of the critical current in the presence of an external magnetic field applied either in the junction plane or in the perpendicular direction. We report a detailed study of both short and long elliptic annular junctions having different eccentricities. For junctions having a normalized perimeter less than one the threshold curves are derived and computed even in the case with one trapped Josephson vortex. For longer junctions a numerical analysis is carried out after the derivation of the appropriate Perturbed sine-Gordon Equation. For a given applied field we find that a number of different phase profiles exist which differ according to the number of fluxon-antifluxon pairs. We demonstrate that in samples made by specularly symmetric electrodes a transverse magnetic field is equivalent to an in-plane field applied in the direction of the current flow. Varying the ellipse eccentricity we reproduce all known results for linear and ring-shaped Josephson tunnel junctions. Experimental data on high-quality Nb/Al-AlOx/Nb elliptic annular junctions support the theoretical analysis provided self-field effects are taken into account.
