Pairing symmetry in the cuprate superconductors is an important and controversial topic.
The recent development of phase-sensitive tests, combined with the refinement of several …

This review provides a theoretical basis for understanding the current-phase relation (CΦR)
for the stationary (dc) Josephson effect in various types of superconducting junctions. The …

Recent developments of the rapid single-flux-quantum (RSFQ) circuit family are reviewed.
Elementary cells of the family can generate, pass, memorize, and reproduce picosecond …

In the past few years magneto-optical flux imaging (MOI) has come to take an increasing role
in the investigation and understanding of critical current densities in high-T c …

The advent of high-T c superconductors gave great impetus to the development of thin-film
superconducting quantum interference devices (SQUIDs) for operation at temperatures up to …

A microscopic theory is developed for structures SNN′(S is a superconductor, N, N′ are
normal metals) with potential barriers at the interfaces. The length of the N layer is supposed …

The discovery of superconductors with high critical temperatures has led to a considerable
effort to fabricate Josephson junctions operating at temperatures approaching, or even …

The traditional distinction between tunnel and highly transmissive barriers does not currently
hold for high critical temperature superconducting Josephson junctions, both because of …

By extending scanning electron microscopy to the temperature regime of liquid helium and
nitrogen a powerful technique for the imaging of the local properties of superconducting thin …

An overview of the current status of different types of non-hysteretic Josephson junctions is
given with emphasis on double-barrier structures. The results of theoretical work on double …
