ic_B_airy

Stoner.analysis.fitting.models.superconductivity.ic_B_airy(B, Ic0, B_offset, A)[source]

Calculate Critical Current for a round Josepshon Junction wrt to Field.

Parameters:
  • B (array-like) – Magnetic Field (structly flux density in T)

  • Ic0 (float) – Maximum critical current

  • B_offset (float) – Field offset/trapped flux in coils/remanent M in junction

  • A (fl,oat) – Area of junction in $m^2$

Returns:

(array) – Values of critical current

Notes

Represents the critical current as:
:math:`I_{c0}timesleft|frac{2 J_1left(frac{pi(B-B_{offset}) A}right)}{Phi_0}}

{frac{pi(B-B_{offset}) A}){Phi_0}}right|`

where \(J_1\) is a first order Bessel function.

For small ($<1^{-5}$)values of the Bessel function argument, this will return Ic0 to ensure correct evaluation for 0 flux.
