Influence of the Josephson junction geometry on the spectral properties of the flux-flow oscillator

Abstract

Numerical investigation of the effects of junction geometry on the performance of the flux-flow type Josephson oscillator has been done. Using direct simulation of the sine-Gordon equation with account of RC load the spectral and power properties for different current density distributions have been calculated. With discussion of the fundamental differences in the dynamics of the inline and overlap junctions the various behavior depending on the junction length and noise intensity has been shown.
