Magnetic Field Induced Charging Effects in Josephson Junction Arrays

Superconductivity 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

A magnetic field induced electric polarization and the corresponding change of an effective junction capacitance are considered within a 3D model of disordered Josephson junction arrays. At some threshold field (near the Josephson network critical field), the effective junction charge and the related capacitance are shown to reach a maximum and to change a sign, respectively. A possibility to observe the predicted effects in artificially prepared arrays of superconducting grains is discussed.
