Triplet Josephson effect with magnetic feedback

Abstract

We study AC Josephson effect in a superconductor-ferromagnet heterostructure with a variable magnetic configuration. The system supports triplet proximity correlations whose dynamics is coupled to the magnetic dynamics. This feedback dramatically modifies the behavior of the junction. The current-phase relation becomes double-periodic at both very low and high Josephson frequencies $\omega_J$. At intermediate frequencies, the periodicity in $\omega_J t$ may be lost.
