We report on experimental results about Josephson junctions for radiation detection with an annular geometry. The observed suppression of the critical Josephson current and the presence of one single resonance step in the current-voltage characteristic, as predicted by the theory, strongly support the idea that this geometry could be very convenient for radiation detection.

Abstract

We report on experimental results about Josephson junctions for radiation detection with an annular geometry. The observed suppression of the critical Josephson current and the presence of one single resonance step in the current-voltage characteristic, as predicted by the theory, strongly support the idea that this geometry could be very convenient for radiation detection. The results were obtained when one single magnetic fluxon was trapped in the central hole, and they represent the first experimental confirmation of the theoretical predictions in the case of annular junctions with finite ring width
