Josephson junction |
Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia | 0.02 sec. |
Josephson junctionDevice used in ‘superchips’ (large and complex integrated circuits) to speed the passage of signals by a phenomenon called ‘electron tunnelling’. Although these superchips respond a thousand times faster than the silicon chip, they have the disadvantage that the components of the Josephson junctions operate only at temperatures close to absolute zero. They are named after English theoretical physicist Brian Josephson. How to thank TFD for its existence?

symmetry of unconventional superconductors by Josephson effects, Unfortunately the values of the voltages produced by the Josephson effect were not known with reduced uncertainty in terms of the SI volt. The team interprets the oscillation within the lattice that creates the pulses as the first evidence in a condensate of a phenomenon called the Josephson effect. |
