Abstract

When operated well below T c (0), the superconducting phase has stabilized, hampering the experimental observation of effects induced by thermal fluctuations. Nevertheless the energy scales for vortices and phase-slips are very sensitive to an applied bias current I b, that macerates the rigidity of the condensed Cooper pair wave function (see chapter 9.2).
