We study the phenomenon of macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) in small Josephson junctions (JJ) with an externally applied magnetic field. The latter results in the appearance of the Fraunhofer type modulation of the current density along…
Stochastic switching-current distribution in a graphene-based Josephson junction exhibits a crossover from the classical to quantum regime, revealing the macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) of a Josephson phase particle at low temperatures.…
In close analogy to quantum electrodynamics, we derive a quantum field theory of Josephson plasma waves (JPWs) in layered superconductors (LSCs), which describes two types of interacting JPW bosonic quanta: one massive and the other…
We have carried out systematic Macroscopic Quantum Tunneling (MQT) experiments on Nb/Al-AlO_x/Nb Josephson junctions (JJs) of different areas. Employing on-chip lumped element inductors, we have decoupled the JJs from their environmental…

Macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) for a single fluxon moving along a long Josephson junction is studied theoretically. To introduce a fluxon-pinning force, we consider inhomogeneities made by modifying thickness of an insulating layer…
