YBCO/Nb bulk junctions: Observation of the Josephson effect

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento D

Summary

The fabrication procedure of reliable YBCO-based bulk junctions with a Nb film as a counterelectrode is described. Typical currentvoltage characteristics are presented, clearly showing the presence of the Josephson effect.
