Josephson effect in ballistic graphene
arXiv:cond-mat/0605564 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.74.041401
Abstract
We solve the Dirac-Bogoliubov-De-Gennes equation in an impurity-free superconductor-normal-superconductor (SNS) junction, to determine the maximal supercurrent that can flow through an undoped strip of graphene with heavily doped superconducting electrodes. The result is determined by the superconducting gap and by the aspect ratio of the junction (length L, small relative to the width W and to the superconducting coherence length). Moving away from the Dirac point of zero doping, we recover the usual ballistic result in which the Fermi wave length takes over from L. The product of critical current and normal-state resistance retains its universal value (up to a numerical prefactor) on approaching the Dirac point.
