Abstract
Ever since the discovery of the Josephson effect there has been the challenge to produce Josephson contacts using materials with high transition temperature Tc. There are among others the following reasons:
-
i)
A more widespread use of Josephson devices can be expected if their operating temperature is raised well above liquid helium temperatures,
-
ii)
A better performance can be expected from devices that are operated well below their transition temperature, at least if we are dealing with tunnel junctions as Josephson contacts.
