This review provides a theoretical basis for understanding the current-phase relation (CΦR)
for the stationary (dc) Josephson effect in various types of superconducting junctions. The …

This review presents an overview of the thermal properties of mesoscopic structures. The
discussion is based on the concept of electron energy distribution, and, in particular, on …

The superconducting analogue to the semiconducting diode, the Josephson diode, has long
been sought with multiple avenues to realization being proposed by theorists,–. Showing …

Graphene-based Josephson junctions provide a novel platform for studying the proximity
effect,, due to graphene's unique electronic spectrum and the possibility to tune junction …

We report on the design and performance of an on-chip microwave circulator with a widely
(GHz) tunable operation frequency. Nonreciprocity is created with a combination of …

Josephson junctions enable dissipation-less electrical current through metals and insulators
below a critical current. Despite being central to quantum technology based on …

Superconducting properties of metallic nanowires can be entirely different from those of bulk
superconductors because of the dominating role played by thermal and quantum …

We report on measurements of supercurrents through the half-metallic ferromagnet CrO 2
grown on hexagonal Al 2 O 3 (sapphire). The current was observed to flow over a distance …

We investigate hysteresis in the transport properties of superconductor–normal-metal–
superconductor (SNS) junctions at low temperatures by measuring directly the electron …

Josephson junctions are a central element in superconducting quantum technology; in these
devices, irreversibility arises from abrupt slips of the quantum phase difference across the …
