Abstract

We consider the microwave dynamics and transport properties of a voltage-biased single-Cooper-pair transistor. The dynamics is shown to be strongly affected by interference between multiple microwave-induced inter-level transitions. As a result the magnitude and direction of the dc Josephson current are extremely sensitive to small variations of the bias voltage and to changes in the frequency of the microwave field.
