Radiation emission due to fluxon scattering on inhomogeneity in large two-dimensional Josephson junction
arXiv:1407.1985 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.90.224509
Abstract
Interaction of a fluxon in the two-dimensional large Josephson junction with the finite area inhomogeneity is studied within the sine-Gordon theory. The spectral density of the emitted plane waves is computed exactly for the rectangular and rhombic inhomogeneities. Total emitted energy as a function of the fluxon velocity exhibits at least one local maximum. Connection to the previously studied limiting cases including the point impurity and the one-dimensional limit has been performed. An important feature o f the emitted energy as a function of the fluxon velocity is a clear maximum (or maxima). The dependence of these maxima on the geometric properties of the impurity has been studied in detail.
