relation to Josephson effect
- In Josephson effect
The Josephson current flows only if no battery is connected across the two superconductors. If a battery is inserted, the current oscillates very rapidly so that no net current flows. The presence of magnetic fields near the superconductors influences the Josephson effect, allowing it to be…

- In superconductivity: Josephson currents
If two superconductors are separated by an insulating film that forms a low-resistance junction between them, it is found that Cooper pairs can tunnel from one side of the junction to the other. (This process occurs in addition to the single-particle tunneling already…
