Coulomb-enhanced resonance transmission of quantum SINIS junctions

Abstract

Coherent charge transfer through a ballistic gated SINIS junction is mediated by the resonant tunneling via the Andreev states. Extra charge accommodated on the Andreev levels partially compensates the charge induced by the gate voltage preserving the electron wavelength and maintaining the resonance conditions in a broad range of gate voltages. As a result, the transparency of the junction as well as the supercurrent trough it can be substantially increased as compared to the zero-Coulomb case.
