Some novel effects in superconducting nanojunctions

In this paper we address several new developments in the theory of dc Josephson effect in superconducting weak links. We analyze an interplay between quantum interference effects and Andreev reflection in SNS nanojunctions with insulating barriers and demonstrate that these effects may qualitativ...
