Ja. Zou et al., Fractional Shapiro steps and superstructure in revivals of supercurrent inmesoscopic Josephson junction, INT J MOD B, 12(26), 1998, pp. 2733-2741
Dynamic behavior of supercurrent in mesoscopic Josephson junction interacti
ng with even coherent state (CS) and odd CS of nonclassical microwave with
frequency omega(1) and classical radiation with frequency omega(2) is inves
tigated. It is shown that the supercurrent through the junction has a de co
mponent only for all rational values of omega(1)/omega(2) (fractional Shapi
ro steps). It is also shown that the dynamic behavior of the supercurrent e
xhibits collapse and revival phenomenon and the revivals are dominated by t
he periodical superstructure. Dynamic behavior of supercurrent fluctuation
is also studied and it is found that generally when the fluctuation is larg
e, the supercurrent exhibits collapses and when the fluctuation is small, t
he supercurrent exhibits revivals.
