Abstract

Last years many interesting effects related to incoherent MAR have been experimentally found, but only few of them were theoretically explained. It was shown, for example, that if the voltage at the edges of a linear array is VV then subgarmonic structures in the current -voltage characteristics appear not only at usual for nonstationary Josephson effect positions, Vn=2Δ/nV_n=2\Delta/n, where nn is integer, but also at voltages other than VnV_n. A step towards description of electron transport in a dirty array of SNS junctions is done in this letter. It is shown that subgarmonic structures may indeed appear at ``unusual'' voltages.
