Abstract
The effect of alternating current on the plasma frequency of the tunnel Josephson junctions simultaneously carrying both direct (dc) and alternating (ac) currents has been studied. The presence of the ac component leads to a decrease in the plasma frequency. An analytical expression describing the plasma frequency as a function of the ac current amplitude is proposed. The obtained results agree with the recent experimental data on the properties of tunnel Josephson junctions.
