"Fiske resonances in Josephson tunnelling junctions"
Gal Amit
Dept. of Condensed Matter Physics, Tel Aviv University
Josephson properties of asymmetric
45o [001]-tilt grain boundaries in thin
YBa2Cu3O{7-δ} superconducting
films are considered. The grain boundary is treated as a Josephson
junction with a critical current density alternating along its
surface. The current-voltage characteristic of this junction is
examined using two different methods and huge Fiske resonances are
found.
