Standardization – Towards an Agenda for Research

Standardization research is a fairly new and is a still-evolving field of research, with possibly major practical ramifications. This article presents a summary of the authors' subjective views of the most pressing research topics in the field. These include, among others, standards (e.g. incorporation of ethical issues), the potential impact of...

Critical current semiconductor nanowire Josephson junctions in the presence of magnetic field

We study theoretically the critical current in semiconductor nanowire Josephson junction with strong spin-orbit interaction. The critical current oscillates with an external magnetic field. We reveal that the oscillation of critical current depends on the orientation of magnetic field in the presence of spin-orbit interaction. We perform a...

Anomalous Josephson effect induced by spin-orbit interaction and Zeeman effect in semiconductor nanowires

We investigate theoretically the Josephson junction of semiconductor nanowire with strong spin-orbit (SO) interaction in the presence of magnetic field. By using a tight-binding model, the energy levels En of Andreev bound states are numerically calculated as a function of phase difference ? between two superconductors in the case of short...
