Advances in high-Tc grain boundary junctions

We review results on two novel types of grain boundary Josephson junctions in the high critical temperature cuprate superconductors. The quality of YBa₂Cu₃O₇-δ biepitaxial grain boundary Josephson junctions have been improved using a new growth geometry to the point that «tunnel- like» characteri...

We review results on two novel types of grain boundary Josephson junctions in the high critical temperature cuprate superconductors. The quality of YBa₂Cu₃O₇-δ biepitaxial grain boundary Josephson junctions have been improved using a new growth geometry to the point that «tunnel- like» characteristics are reproducibly obtained. The consequent low barrier transmission probabilities are apparently favourable to isolate intrinsic d-wave induced effects. We also focus on peculiar aspects of spontaneous currents in HTS Josephson junctions, which are unique and reflect the intimate relation between vortex matter and the Josephson effect. Bicrystal grain boundary Josephson junctions have also been fabricated using artificial superlattice films with as few as six superconducting copper–oxygen planes. Extrinsic and intrinsic d-wave effects in these junctions are discussed within the framework of novel designs for π-circuitry and qubits.
This work has been partially supported by the ESF projects «П-Shift» and «QUACS». The authors would like to thank A. Barone, T. Bauch, S. Kubatkin, K. Moler, and C. Tsuei for useful discussions.
