We study the low-temperature properties of linear Josephson-junction arrays capacitively coupled to a proximate two-dimensional diffusive metal. Using bosonization techniques, we derive an effective model for the array and obtain its…
We investigate theoretically transport properties of one- and two-dimensional regular Josephson junction arrays (JJAs) in an insulating state. We derive the low-temperature current-voltage characteristics for the current mediated by the…
We use a driven Monte Carlo dynamics in the phase representation to determine the linear resistivity and current-voltage scaling of a two-dimensional Josephson-junction array at an irrational flux quantum per plaquette. The results are…
We numerically investigate dynamic critical behaviors of two-dimensional (2D) Josephson-junction arrays with positional disorder in the scheme of the resistively shunted junction dynamics. Large-scale computation of the current voltage…
We studied current-voltage characteristics of long one dimensional Josephson junction chains with Josephson energy much larger than charging energy, $E_J \gg E_C$. In this regime, typical IV curves of the samples consist of a supercurrent…
We report the results of ac sheet conductance measurements performed on fully frustrated square arrays of Josephson junctions whose coupling energy is periodically modulated in one of the principal lattice directions. Such systems are…
The phase diagram of a 2D Josephson junction array with large substrate resistance, described by a quantum XY model, is studied by means of Fourier path-integral Monte Carlo. A genuine Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition is found up…
We reconsider the issue of Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition into an insulating state in the Coulomb-dominated Josephson junction arrays. We show that previously predicted picture of the Cooper-pair BKT transtion at T = T_2…
We study charge transport in a granular array with high inter-grain conductances. We show that the system exhibits a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless crossover from the high-temperature conducting state into a low-temperature insulating…
Two chains of ultrasmall Josephson junctions, coupled capacitively with each other in the two different ways, straight and slanted coupling, are considered. As the coupling capacitance increases, regardless of the coupling scheme, the…
Quantum-phase transitions in two layers of ultrasmall Josephson junctions, coupled capacitively with each other, are investigated. As the interlayer capacitance is increased, the system at zero temperature is found to exhibit an…
We investigate the quantum phase transition in a one-dimensional chain of ultra-small superconducting grains, considering both the self- and junction capacitances. At zero temperature, the system is transformed into a two-dimensional system…
We investigate collective Cooper-pair transport of one- and two-dimensional Josephson junction arrays in the insulating state. We derive an analytical expression for the current-voltage characteristic revealing thermally activated…
Fully frustrated Josephson Junction arrays (FF-JJA's) exhibit a subtle compound phase transition in which an Ising transition associated with discrete broken translational symmetry and a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition…
We discuss heat transport through a Josephson tunnel junction under various bias conditions. We first derive the formula for the cooling power of the junction valid for arbitrary time dependence of the Josephson phase. Combining it with the…
By improving resolution of home-made mutual-inductance measurements technique, a pronounced step-like structure (with the number of steps n=4 for all AC fields) has been observed in the temperature dependence of AC susceptibility in…
We describe transport properties of two-dimensional arrays of low capacitance tunnel junctions, such as the current voltage characteristic and its dependence on external magnetic field and temperature. We discuss several experiments in…
The switching dynamics of current-biased Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CaCu$_{2}$O$_{8+\delta}$ intrinsic Josephson junctions (IJJs) was studied to clarify the effect of d-wave superconductivity and the stack structure on the switching properties. High…
We have made a systematic investigation of charge transport in 1D chains of Josephson junctions where the characteristic Josephson energy is much less than the single-island Cooper-pair charging energy, $E_\mathrm{J}\ll E_{CP}$. Such chains…
We have investigated the effect of thermal fluctuation on the interlayer coupling of three-dimensional Josephson-junction arrays with anisotropic interactions as a model of layered high-$T_c$ oxides, focusing on non-Ohmic current-voltage…
