Experimental observation of the strong influence of an array of ferromagnetic nanodots on the critical current of a short overlap Josephson junction is reported. Pronounced commensurability effects are detected due to the presence of the…
The Josephson diode effect describes the property of a Josephson junction to have different values of the critical current for different direction of applied bias current and it is the focus of intense research thanks to the possible…
Using computer simulations, we demonstrate a new type of commensurability that occurs for vortices moving longitudinally through periodic pinning arrays in the presence of an additional transverse driving force. As a function of vortex…
We consider the effect of positional disorder on a Josephson junction array with an applied magnetic field of f=1/2 flux quantum per unit cell. This is equivalent to the problem of random Gaussian phase shifts in the fully frustrated 2D XY…
To study the properties of frustrated two-dimensional Josephson junction arrays near incommensurability, we examine the current-voltage characteristics of a square proximity-coupled Josephson junction array at a sequence of frustrations…
A square array of Josephson junctions with modulated strength in a magnetic field with half a flux quantum per plaquette is studied by analytic arguments and dynamical simulations. The modulation is such that alternate columns of junctions…
We investigate the direction-dependent switching current in a flux-tunable four-terminal Josephson junction defined in an InAs/Al two-dimensional heterostructure. The device exhibits the Josephson diode effect, with switching currents that…
We investigate Josephson junctions on the surface of a three-dimensional topological insulator in planar, step, and edge geometries. The elliptical nature of the Dirac cone representing the side surface states of the topological insulator…
In the Josephson effect, coherent Cooper pair tunneling is driven by the phase difference between the superconducting order parameters on opposite sides of the junction. By analogy, differences in order parameters across a junction should…
A report of numerical experiment results on long Josephson junction with one and two rectangular inhomogeneities in the barrier layer is presented. In case of one inhomogeneity we demonstrate the existence of the asymmetric fluxon states.…
The critical currents in Josephson junctions of conventional superconductors with macroscopic defects are calculated for different defect critical current densities as a function of the magnetic field. We also study the evolution of the…
The Josephson diode effect, where the critical current magnitude depends on its direction, arises when both time-reversal and inversion symmetries are broken - often achieved by a combination of spin-orbit interaction and applied magnetic…
We report a study of overdamped Josephson junction arrays with the geometry of periodically repeated Sierpinski gaskets. These model superconductors share essential geometrical features with truly random (percolative) systems. When exposed…
We study the anomalous Josephson effect, as well as the dependence on the direction of the critical Josephson current, in an S/N/S junction, where the normal part is realized by alternating spin-orbit coupled and ferromagnetic layers. We…
Establishment of phase-coherence and a non-dissipative (super)current between two weakly coupled superconductors, known as the Josephson effect, plays a foundational role in basic physics and applications to metrology, precision sensing,…
The transition from the model of a long Josephson junction of variable width to the model of a junction with a coordinate-dependent Josephson current amplitude is effected through a coordinate transformation. This establishes the…
Planar Josephson junctions in a magnetic field exhibit the superconducting diode effect, by which the critical current magnitude depends on the polarity of the transport current. A number of different mechanisms for the effect have been…
We calculate the modulation by a magnetic field of the critical current of a long disordered Josephson junction in the diffusive limit, i.e. when the dimensions of the junction are larger that the elastic mean free path, and when the length…
We report experimental and numerical analysis of expontentially shaped long Josephson junctions with lateral current injection. Quasi-linear flux flow branches are observed in the current-voltage characteristic of the junctions in the…
The equilibrium properties of flux lines pinned by columnar disorder are studied, using the analogy with the time evolution of a diffusing scalar density in a randomly amplifying medium. Near H_{c1}, the physical features of the vortices in…
