Fractional ac Josephson effect in unconventional superconductors

For certain orientations of Josephson junctions between two px-wave or two d-wave superconductors,
 the subgap Andreev bound states produce a 4π-periodic relation between the Josephson
 current I and the phase difference:φ I sin(φ/2). Consequently, the ac Josephson current has the&am...

Zusammenfassung:For certain orientations of Josephson junctions between two px-wave or two d-wave superconductors,
 the subgap Andreev bound states produce a 4π-periodic relation between the Josephson
 current I and the phase difference:φ I sin(φ/2). Consequently, the ac Josephson current has the
 fractional frequency eV h, where V is the dc voltage. In the tunneling limit, the Josephson current
 is proportional to the first power (not square) of the electron tunneling amplitude. Thus, the
 Josephson current between unconventional superconductors is carried by ingle electrons, rather
 than by Cooper pairs. The fractional ac Josephson effect can be observed experimentally by measuring
 frequency spectrum of microwave radiation from the junction
