This project examines the effects of diffusion current (DC) on capacitively coupled Josephson junctions (CCJJ) and details a comparative analysis between CCJJ and CCJJ+DC. Conducted by student Mostafa El Demery under the supervision of Dr. Yuri Shukrinov at the Bogoliubov Laboratory of Theoretical Physics in Egypt, the study explores historical advancements in the field of superconductivity, including the Josephson effect and various types of Josephson junctions. It provides insights into phase-difference dynamics and the implications of additional current on junction behavior.

Some History • 1911: Onnes discovered Superconductivity. • 1933: Meissner and Ochsenfeld discovered the perfect diamagnetism. • 1950: London, Ginsburg and Landau formulated a phenomenological theories of Superconductivity. • 1957: Bardeen, Cooper and Schrieffer formulated a microscopic theories of Superconductivity.
Some History • 1962: Josephson effect and Josephson Junctions. • 1963: Anderson experimentally verified Supercurrent to be existed.
Josephson Effect • Novel phenomena should arise in a weak electrical contact between two superconductors (Josephson Junction). • Supercurrent component in the net current flowing through the junction is responsible for these phenomena. • Supercurrent is a function not of the voltage V across the junction but of the phase-difference Josephson Phase.
Josephson Effect Josephson Junction
Josephson JunctionsTypes S I S Types • Tunnel Junctions (SIS Sandwich) • Proposed in 1960 by Giaever. • Superconductor (S)-insulator (I)-superconductor (S). • Electrons have a small but nonvanishing probability of penetrating from one electrode to the other one via quantum tunneling through the energy barrier by the insulator. • Electron penetration results in a nonvanishing normal conductance Gn when the electrodes are in • Normal State • Superconducting State Tunnel Junction
Josephson JunctionsTypes (cont.) S S Types • Weak Link (SNS Sandwich) N Weak Link
Capacitively Coupled Josephson Junctions • System of superconducting layers with indices l and order parameter and time-dependent phase • Gauge invariant phase difference
Capacitively Coupled Josephson Junctions • Generalized Josephson Relation GJR • α is the coupling constant between junctions.
