Abstract
We have illuminated with UV or visible light YBaCuO grain boundary Josephso n junctions (GBJJ) of different critical temperatures of the banks (90K and 60K). These GBJJ show both de Josephson properties (Fraunhofer pattern) an d ac Josephson properties (Fiske resonance). From the decrease of the norma l state resistance we can estimate the oxygen content of the barrier which is lower in the 60 K junctions. The relative increase of the critical curre nt by illumination is higher in the 60 K than in the 90K junctions..
