Response of Highly Damped Junctions to External Low-Frequency Noise Currents,
Abstract
The dc characteristics of superconducting point-contact junctions subjected to external noise currents are measured under the condition that the noise-frequency spectrum is below the Josephson frequency. It is shown that the curves are in agreement with a model based on modulation of the noise-free dc characteristic. Although in the low-bias-voltage region the shape of the curves is qualitatively similar to previous theoretical predictions for the case of high-frequency noise, for higher voltages the shapes are different. Quantitative differences exist over the whole range of bias voltage. (Author)
