Abstract
The use of PrBa2Cu3-xGaxO7 barrier material with increased resistivity by Ga doping (x=0; 0.05 and 0.1) in ramp-type DyBa2Cu3O7/PrBa2Cu3-xGa xO7/DyBa2Cu3O7 Josephson junctions has been investigated. All junction s have been fabricated with very smooth sputtered films and show good RSJ-like I-V characteristics with clear Josephson behaviour. Both crit ical current I(c) and normal state resistance R(n) are influenced by t he doping level as well as the barrier thickness. The temperature depe ndence of the normal state resistance at different Ga doping levels an d barrier thicknesses will be discussed.
