Abstract

The electromagnetic properties of superconductors are investigated as a function of the discreteness of the crystal lattice in the London limit. The dependence of the superconducting current on the magnitude of the order parameter is obtained in the framework of the lattice model. The dependence of the critical current on the degree of deviation from the continuous approximation is calculated.
