Integer charge transport in Josephson junctions

  • 1. California Institute of Technology, Condensed Matter Physics 114-36, Pasadena, California 91125

Description

We describe a macroscopic demonstration of quantized adiabatic transport coefficients using superconductors coupled by Josephson junctions. The transport coefficients relate charges and currents to changes in potential differences and loop fluxes. They have geometrical significance and quantized average related to first Chern characters
