Lev P. Bulat, Dmitry A. Pshenai-Severin, Konopelko V. V.


Abstract
The values of critical currents through Josephson junctions of the superconductor-insulator-superconductor (SIS) type have been calculated and assessed taking into account possible differences in electronic effective masses within superconducting metal and insulator. The results of the assessment are compared with the available experimental data.

Keywords: superconductivity, Josephson effect, tunnel structure, critical current.
