Josephson junctions were fabricated for several oxidation conditions and several junction sizes. Considering self-field effect suppressing the observed critical current (Ic) at large junctions, the observed Ic values were in good agreement with theoretical prediction. The predicted junction critical current for small junction limit was also confirmed by experiment. The dependence of the estimated Jc as a function of oxidation exposure showed that our junctions have lower Jc than other authors' at the same oxidation exposure. This is thought to be one of equipment-specific phenomena. Details of experimentals will be reported with brief discussion.

We compared c-axis tunneling characteristics of small stacked intrinsic Josephson junctions prepared on the surface of pristine, I-, and HgI$_2$-intercalated Bi$_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+x}$ (Bi2212) single crystals. The R(T) curves are almost metallic in I-Bi2212 specimens, but semiconducting in HgI$_2$-Bi2212 ones.· The transition temperatures were 82.0 K, 73.0 K, and 76.8 K for pristine Bi2212, I-Bi2212, and HgI2-Bi2212 specimens, respectively, consistent with p-T$_c$ phase diagram. Current-voltage (IV) characteristics of both kinds of specimens show multiple quasiparticle branches with well developed gap features, indicating Josephson coupling is established between neighboring CuO$_2$ planes. The critical current I$_c$ of I-Bi2212 is almost the same as of that of pristine crystals, but I$_c$ is much reduced in Hgl$_2$-Bi2212. In spite of expanded interlayer distances, the interlayer coupling is not significantly affected in I-Bi2212due to holes generated by iodine atoms. The coupling in HgI$_2$-Bi2212 is, however, weakened due to inertness of HgI$_2$ molecules and the expansion of interlayer distance. Relation between the superconducting transition temperature T$_c$ and the critical current I$_c$ seems to contradict Anderson's interlayer-pair-tunneling theory but agree with a modified version of it.

The effect of annealing step-edges of LaAlO$_3$ and MgO single crystal substrates on YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7}$ junction has been studied. The step-edge was fabricated by argon ion milling and was annealed at 105$0^{\circ}C$ in 1 attn oxygen pressure. We compared AFM image near step-edge of the substrates between before and after annealing process. And YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7}$ thin film was deposited on the step-edge by a standard pulsed laser deposition. The step-edge junctions were characterized by current-voltage curves at 77 K. The annealing of step-edges of MgO substrate improved the current-voltage characteristic of Josephson junction: double steps in the current-voltage characteristic disappeared. However the annealing for LaAlO$_3$ did not improve the junction property.rty.

Digital to analog converters based on the Josephson effect are promising for voltage standard, because they produce voltage steps with high precision and good stability. In this paper, we made a simulation study on RSFQ D/A converter. RSFQ D/A converter was composed of NDRO cells, T(toggle) flip-flops, D flip-flops, Splitters and Confluence Buffers. Confluence Buffer was used to reset the D/A converter. We also obtained operating margins of the important circuit values by simulational experiments.

Superconductive digital to analog converters (DAC) based on Josephson effect produce the voltage steps with high precision and good stability Therefore, they can be applied to obtain a very accurate ac voltage standard. In this paper, we made a simulation study of Rapid Single Flux Quantum (RSFQ) DAC. RSFQ DAC was composed of Non-destructive Head Out (NDRO) cells, T flip-flops, D flip-flops, Splitters, and Confluence Buffers. Confluence Buffer was used in resetting the DACs. We also obtained operating margins of the important circuit parameters in simulations.

The magnetic field sensor was fabricated with superconducting ceramics of YBaCuO system. The sensor at liquid nitrogen temperature showed the increase of electrical resistance by applying magnetic field. Actually the voltage drop across the sensor was changed from zero to a value more than 100 $mutextrm{V}$ by the applied magnetic field. The change in electrical resistance depended on magnetic field. The sensitivity of this sensor was 2.9 $\Omega$/T. The sensing limit was about $1.5\times$10$^{-5}$. The increase of electrical resistance by the magnetic field was ascribed to a modification of the Josephson junctions due to the penetrating magnetic flux into the superconducting material. Considering the observed properties of the superconductor with trapped magnetic flux, a magnetic sensor was fabricated to detect simultaneously both the intensity and the direction of the magnetic field.
