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 $V$ then…
A theory of coherent multiple Andreev reflections (MAR) is developed for superconductor-normal metal-superconductor (SNS) interferometers. We consider a Y-shape normal electron beam splitter connecting two superconducting reservoirs, where…
Spectral density of current fluctuations at zero frequency is calculated for a long diffusive SNS junction with low-resistive interfaces. At low temperature, T << Delta, the subgap shot noise approaches linear voltage dependence, S=(2/…
We present a theory of the current-voltage characteristics in diffusive superconductor-normal-metal-superconductor junctions. By solving the time-dependent Usadel equations we are able to describe the phase-coherent transport for arbitrary…
Despite several theoretical approaches describing multiple Andreev reflections (MAR) effect in superconductor-normal metal-superconductor (SNS) junction are elaborated, the problem of comprehensive and adequate description of MAR is highly…
Current noise in superconductor-normal metal-superconductor (SNS) junctions is calculated within the scattering theory of multiple Andreev reflections (MAR). It is shown that the noise exhibits subharmonic gap singularities at…
We have examined the electrical behavior of Josephson junctions formed by a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) with a Nb sample and a Nb tip, with normal-state resistances Rn varying between 1 kOhm and 10 MOhm. Current-voltage…
We study the dc conductance and current fluctuations in diffusive voltage biased SNS junctions with a tunnel barrier inside the mesoscopic normal region. We find that at subgap voltages, eV<2Delta/n, the current associated with the chain of…
We present a general theory for the full counting statistics of multiple Andreev reflections in incoherent superconducting-normal-superconducting contacts. The theory, based on a stochastic path integral approach, is applied to a…
We study coherent multiple Andreev reflections in quantum SNS junctions of finite length and arbitrary transparency. The presence of superconducting bound states in these junctions gives rise to great enhancement of the subgap current. The…
A general formula for the current through a disordered normal--superconducting junction is derived, which is valid at finite temperature and includes the full voltage dependence. The result depends on a multichannel scattering matrix, which…
We present a theory for the current shot noise in long diffusive SNS structures with low-resistive interfaces at arbitrary temperatures. In such structures, the noise is mostly generated by normal electron scattering in the N-region.…
The current-voltage characteristics of Josephson junctions exhibit a subharmonic gap structure (SGS), denoting jumps at specific voltages. While the prevalent multiple Andreev reflection theory matches the experimentally observed SGS, it is…
We have generalized the scattering-matrix theory of multiple Andreev reflections in mesoscopic Josephson junctions to the multi-mode case, and applied it to short superconductor/normal metal/superconductor junctions with diffusive electron…

Understanding the subgap behavior of Normal-Insulator-Superconductor (NIS) tunnel junctions is important in order to be able to accurately model the thermal properties of the junctions. Hekking and Nazarov developed a theory in which NIS…
We have investigated low-temperature transport properties of two-dimensional arrays of superconductor--normal-metal--superconductor (SNS) junctions. It has been found that in two-dimensional arrays of SNS junctions (i) a change in the…
