Description

The critical currents of Nb/Al, Al-oxide, Al/Nb tunnel junctions of various shapes were measured as a function of the applied magnetic field, including square, diamond, '1+cosine' and quartic junctions. The measurements are generally found to be in good agreement with theory. Fiske resonances in the various junctions have been measured as function of the applied field. In the diamond shaped junction not only one-dimensional modes were excited, but also several two-dimensional resonance modes could be identified. In the '1+cosine' and quartic junctions many resonance modes were observed. (R.P.) 14 refs.; 5 figs.; 1 tab
