Josephson junctions (JJs), where both time-reversal and inversion symmetry are broken, exhibit a phase shift $\phi_0$ in their current-phase relation. This allows for an anomalous supercurrent to flow in the junction even in the absence of…

The hetero junction between the different materials often gives the rectification effect; e.g., pn junction is used for diode. On the other hand, the Josephson junction between the two superconductors is assumed to show symmetric response…
Superconducting weak link (WL), acting as a Josephson junction (JJ), is one of the widely used elements in superconductor science and quantum circuits. A hysteretic JJ with robust switching between its superconducting and resistive state is…
In the presence of phase fluctuations the dc Josephson effect is modified and the supercurrent at zero voltage is replaced by a peak at small but finite voltages. It is shown that at zero temperature this peak is determined by two…

In the tunnel limit, the current-phase relation of Josephson junctions can be expanded as $I(\phi)=I_1\sin\phi+I_2\sin 2\phi$. Standard BCS theory predicts that $I_1R_N\sim\Delta/e$ and $I_2/I_1\sim D$, where $R_N$ is the resistance of the…
