The '''Josephson effect''' is the phenomenon of supercurrent—i.e. a current that flows indefinitely long without any voltage applied—across a device known as a '''Josephson junction''' (JJ), which consists of two [[superconductors]] coupled by a weak link. The weak link can consist of a thin insulating barrier (known as a [[Superconducting tunnel junction|superconductor–insulator–superconductor junction]], or S-I-S), a short section of non-superconducting metal (S-N-S), or a physical constriction that weakens the superconductivity at the point of contact (S-s-S).
 
The Josephson effect is an example of a [[macroscopic quantum phenomenon]]. It is named after the British physicist [[Brian David Josephson]], who predicted in 1962 the mathematical relationships for the current and voltage across the weak link.<ref>Josephson, B.

The first paper to claim the discovery of Josephson's effect, and to make the requisite experimental checks, was that of [[Philip Warren Anderson|Philip Anderson]] and John Rowell.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Anderson|first=P W|coauthors=Rowell, J M|title=Probable Observation of the Josephson Tunnel Effect|journal=Phys.

Before Josephson's prediction, it was only known that normal (i.e. non-superconducting) electrons can flow through an insulating barrier, by means of [[quantum tunneling]]. Josephson was the first to predict the tunneling of superconducting [[Cooper pair]]s. For this work, Josephson received the [[Nobel prize in physics]] in 1973.<ref>[http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1973/ The Nobel prize in physics 1973], accessed 8-18-11</ref> Josephson junctions have important applications in [[Quantum circuit|quantum-mechanical circuits]], such as [[SQUID]]s, [[Superconducting quantum computing|superconducting qubits]], and [[RSFQ]] digital electronics.
 
A '''Dayem bridge''' is a [[thin-film]] variant of the Josephson junction in which the weak link consists of a superconducting wire with dimensions on the scale of a few [[micrometre]]s or less.<ref>Anderson, P.

where ''U''(''t'') and ''I''(''t'') are the voltage and current across the Josephson junction, ''<math>\phi(t)</math>'' is the "phase difference" across the junction (i.e., the difference in [[phase factor]], or equivalently, [[complex argument|argument]], between the [[Ginzburg–Landau theory|Ginzburg–Landau complex order parameter]] of the two superconductors composing the junction), and ''I''<sub>''c''</sub> is a constant, the ''critical current'' of the junction. The critical current is an important phenomenological parameter of the device that can be affected by temperature as well as by an applied magnetic field. The physical constant <math>\frac{h}{2 e}</math> is the [[magnetic flux quantum]], the inverse of which is the [[Josephson constant]].

The scale of the vertical axis is 50 μA and that of the horizontal one is 1 mV. The bar at <math>\scriptstyle U = 0</math> represents the DC Josephson effect, while the current at large values of <math>\scriptstyle |U|</math> is due to the finite value of the superconductor bandgap and not reproduced by the above equations.]]
The three main effects predicted by Josephson follow from these relations:
 
;The DC Josephson effect: This refers to the phenomenon of a direct current crossing from the insulator in the absence of any external electromagnetic field, owing to [[tunnel (quantum mechanics)|tunneling]]. This DC Josephson current is proportional to the sine of the phase difference across the insulator, and may take values between <math>\scriptstyle -I_c</math> and <math>\scriptstyle I_c</math>.
;The AC Josephson effect: With a fixed voltage <math>\scriptstyle U_{DC}</math> across the junctions, the phase will vary linearly with time and the current will be an AC current with amplitude <math>\scriptstyle I_c</math> and frequency <math>\scriptstyle\frac{1}{h}2e \cdot U_{DC}</math>. The complete expression for the current drive <math>\scriptstyle I_\text{ext}</math> becomes <math>\scriptstyle I_\text{ext} \;=\; C_J \frac{dv}{dt} \,+\, I_J \sin \phi \,+\, \frac{V}{R}</math>. This means a Josephson junction can act as a perfect voltage-to-frequency converter.
;The inverse AC Josephson effect: If the phase takes the form <math>\scriptstyle \phi (t) \;=\;  \phi_0 \,+\, n \omega t \,+\, a \sin( \omega t)</math>, the voltage and current will be
:<math>U(t) = \frac{\hbar}{2 e} \omega ( n + a \cos( \omega t) ), \ \ \ I(t) = I_c \sum_{m \,=\, -\infty}^\infty J_n (a) \sin (\phi_0 + (n + m) \omega t).</math>
 
The DC components will then be
:<math>U_{DC} = n \frac{\hbar}{2 e} \omega, \ \ \ I(t) = I_c J_{-n} (a) \sin \phi_0.</math>
 
Hence, for distinct AC voltages, the junction may carry a DC current and the junction acts like a perfect frequency-to-voltage converter.
 
==Applications==
The Josephson effect has found wide usage, for example in the following areas:
 
* [[SQUID]]s, or superconducting quantum interference devices, are very sensitive [[magnetometer]]s that operate via the Josephson effect. They are widely used in science and engineering.
* In precision [[metrology]], the Josephson effect provides an exactly reproducible conversion between [[frequency]] and [[voltage]]. Since the frequency is already defined precisely and practically by the [[caesium standard]], the Josephson effect is used, for most practical purposes, to give the definition of a [[volt]] (although, as of July 2007, this is not the official [[BIPM]] definition<ref>[[International Bureau of Weights and Measures]] (BIPM), [http://www.bipm.org/en/si/si_brochure/chapter2/2-1/  SI brochure, section 2.1], accessed 4-17-12</ref>).
* [[Single-electron transistor]]s are often constructed of [[superconducting]] materials, allowing use to be made of the Josephson effect to achieve novel effects. The resulting device is called a "superconducting single-electron transistor."<ref>{{cite journal|last=Fulton|first=T.A.|coauthors=''et al.''|year=1989|title=Observation of Combined Josephson and Charging Effects in Small Tunnel Junction Circuits|journal=Physical Review Letters|volume=63|issue=12|pages=1307–1310|doi=10.1103/PhysRevLett.63.1307|pmid=10040529|bibcode=1989PhRvL..63.1307F}}</ref> The Josephson effect is also used for the most precise measurements of [[elementary charge]] in terms of the Josephson constant and von Klitzing constant which is related to the [[quantum Hall effect]].
* [[RSFQ]] digital electronics is based on shunted Josephson junctions. In this case, the junction switching event is associated to the emission of one [[magnetic flux quantum]] <math>\scriptstyle\frac{1}{2 e}h</math> that carries the digital information: the absence of switching is equivalent to ''0'', while one switching event carries a ''1''.
* Josephson junctions are integral in [[superconducting quantum computing]] as [[qubits]] such as in a [[flux qubit]] or others schemes where the phase and charge act as the [[conjugate variables]].<ref>{{Cite journal |first=V. |last=Bouchiat |first2=D. |last2=Vion |first3=P. |last3=Joyez |first4=D. |last4=Esteve |first5=M.

* [[Superconducting tunnel junction|Superconducting tunnel junction detectors]] (STJs) may become a viable replacement for CCDs ([[charge-coupled devices]]) for use in [[astronomy]] and [[astrophysics]] in a few years. These devices are effective across a wide spectrum from ultraviolet to infrared, and also in x-rays. The technology has been tried out on the [[William Herschel Telescope]] in the [[Superconducting camera|SCAM]] instrument.
*[[Quiteron]]s and similar superconducting switching devices.
* Josephson effect has also been observed in [[SHeQUID]]s, the [[superfluid]] helium analog of a dc-SQUID.<ref>Physics Today, ''Superfluid helium interferometers'', Y. Sato and R. Packard, October 2012, page 31</ref>
