چکیده
A simple and general derivation of Josephson formulae for the tunneling currents is presented on the basis of Sewell’s general formulation of superconductivity in use of off-diagonal long range order (ODLRO).

Josephson Current For a Graphene Nanoribbon Using a Lattice Model
A tight binding approach based on the Bogoliubov-de Gennes approach has been used to calculate the DC Josephson current for a lattice model for S-GNR-S junctions , for short junctions with respect to superconducting coherence length. We calculate the phase, length, width and chemical potential dependence at the Josephson junction and discuss the similarities and differences with regard to the t...
متن کاملRevealing topological superconductivity in extended quantum spin Hall Josephson junctions.
Quantum spin Hall-superconductor hybrids are promising sources of topological superconductivity and Majorana modes, particularly given recent progress on HgTe and InAs/GaSb. We propose a new method of revealing topological superconductivity in extended quantum spin Hall Josephson junctions supporting "fractional Josephson currents." Specifically, we show that as one threads magnetic flux betwee...
متن کاملThe time reversal invariant fractional Josephson effect
One of the most basic consequences of topological superconductivity is the fractional Josephson effect, which arises due to the coherent tunneling of single electrons between two superconductors, leading to an ac Josephson effect with half the usual Josephson frequency. In this paper we will review the theoretical and experimental foundations of topological superconductivity and the fractional ...
متن کاملCritical Josephson Current in a Model Pb/YBCO Junction
In this article we consider a simple model for a c–axis Pb/YBa2Cu3O7−δ Josephson junction. The observation of a nonzero current in such a junction by Sun et al. [A. G. Sun, D. A. Gajewski, M. B. Maple, R. C. Dynes, Phys. Rev. Lett. 72, 2267 (1994)] has been taken as evidence against d–wave superconductivity in YBa2Cu3O7−δ. We suggest, however, that the pairing interaction in the CuO2 planes may...
