We investigate analytically and numerically a Josephson junction on finite domain with two $\pi$-discontinuity points characterized by a jump of $\pi$ in the phase difference of the junction, i.e. a 0-$\pi$-0 Josephson junction. The system…

Motivated by recent progress in development of cryogenic memory compatible with single flux quantum (SFQ) circuits we have performed a theoretical study of magnetic SIsFS Josephson junctions, where 'S' is a bulk superconductor, 's' is a…

Josephson junctions with a phase drop pi in the ground state allow to create vortices of supercurrent carrying only half of the magnetic flux quantum Phi_0~2.07*10^-15 Wb. Such semifluxons have two-fold degenerate ground states denoted up…

Using the Usadel equation approach, we provide a compact formalism to calculate the critical current density of 21 different types of ferromagnetic (F) Josephson junctions containing insulating (I) and normal metal (N) layers in the weak…

We report on experimental studies of superconducting coupling through a thin Ni76Al24 film. A new patterning process has been developed, which allows in combination with the wedge shaped deposition technique the in situ deposition of 20…

We investigate Josephson coupling through a ferromagnetic thin film using Superconductor-Insulator-Ferromagnet-Superconductor planar junctions. Damped oscillations of the critical current are observed as a function of the ferromagnetic…

We consider a 0-$\pi$ Josephson junction consisting of asymmetric 0 and $\pi$ regions of different lengths $L_0$ and $L_\pi$ having different critical current densities $j_{c,0}$ and $j_{c,\pi}$. If both segments are rather short, the whole…

We theoretically study the Josephson effect in a superconductor/normal metal/superconductor ({\it S}/{\it N}/{\it S}) Josephson junction composed of $s$-wave {\it S}s with {\it N} which is sandwiched by two ferromagnetic insulators ({\it…

Using the Keldysh-Usadel formalism, we theoretically study the $0$-$\pi$ transition profiles and current-phase relations of magnetic $SFSFS$ and $SFSFFS$ Josephson nanojunctions in the diffusive regime. By allowing the magnetizations of the…

The physics of the $\pi$ phase shift in ferromagnetic Josephson junctions may enable a range of applications for spin-electronic devices and quantum computing. We investigate transitions from ``0'' to ``$\pi$'' states in Nb/Fe/Nb Josephson…

We theoretically investigate Josephson junctions with a phase shift of $\pi$ in various proximity induced one-dimensional superconductor models. One of the salient experimental signatures of topological superconductors, namely the…

We propose a new qubit consisting of a superconducting ring with two ordinary zero junctions and one ferromagnetic pi junction. In the system, two degenerate stable states appear in the phase space without an external magnetic field because…

We investigate superconductor/insulator/ferromagnet/superconductor (SIFS) tunnel Josephson junctions in the dirty limit, using the quasiclassical theory. We formulate a quantitative model describing the oscillations of critical current as a…

Two superconductors coupled by a weak link support an equilibrium Josephson electrical current which depends on the phase difference $\varphi$ between the superconducting condensates [1]. Yet, when a temperature gradient is imposed across…

On the basis of Usadel equations we investigate superconductor/ferromagnet/superconductor (S/F/S) hybrid systems which consist of superconducting nanostructures (spheres, rods) embedded in ferromagnetic metal. The oscillations of the…

Josephson junctions containing ferromagnetic layers are of considerable interest for the development of practical cryogenic memory and superconducting qubits. Such junctions exhibit a phase shift of $\pi$ for certain ranges of ferromagnetic…

We investigate the Josephson transport through ferromagnetic insulators (FIs) by taking into account the band structure of FIs explicitly. Using the recursive Green's function method, we found the formation of a pi-junction in such systems.…

Josephson effect in short ballistic SINIS and SIFIS double-tunnel junctions, consisting of clean superconductors (S), a normal metal (N) or metallic ferromagnet (F), and insulating interfaces (I) is studied. For SINIS double-tunnel…

We study the Josephson current in a junction comprising two superconductors linked by a strong ferromagnet in presence of impurities. We focus on a regime where the electron (and hole) motion is ballistic over the exchange length and…
