Abstract
We consider a 0- Josephson junction consisting of asymmetric 0 and regions of different lengths and having different critical current densities and . If both segments are rather short, the whole junction can be described by an \emph{effective} current-phase relation for the spatially averaged phase , which includes the usual term , a \emph{negative} second harmonic term as well as the unusual term tunable by magnetic field . Thus one obtains an electronically tunable current-phase relation. At H=0 this corresponds to the Josephson junction.
