AN INVESTIGATION OF THE SNS JOSEPHSON JUNCTION AS A THR EE-TERMINAL DEVICE

摘要

Following the discovery by H. Meiseiner and R.R. Rockefeller of the control of an SNS Josephson junction by a current entering the normal region and leaving through one of the superconducting regions, an investigation was initiated to study the phenomenon and to charac¬terize the new device as a circuit element.nThe effect of the control current en the junction current was de¬scribed by an empirical parameter αo. The resulting transistor-like output current-voltage characteristics support the findings of Rockefeller.
