Macroscopic Quantum Phenomena and Coherence in Superconducting Networks cover

This volume is a review on the recent progresses done in the understanding of the physics of the superconducting arrays. It consists of five sessions:

  • From the single superconducting junction to the Josephson Junction array: an introduction to theory, meaningful experiments and technology
  • Charging effects and phase transitions
  • Static properties of classical JJ arrays
  • Dynamics and Coherence in Classical JJ Arrays
  • Toward JJ Arrays Applications

All the topical contributions go well beyond those characteristics of the condensed matter physics and offer links to the domains of the nonlinear science, complex systems and statistical mechanics.
