✦ Synopsis


We examined temperature dependence of the I c R n (I c being the critical current and R n being the normal-state resistance) product for interface-engineered YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7Àx ramp-edge junctions formed on a groundplane. There were two types for the temperature dependence of the I c R n product. One was the linear temperature dependence, and the other was a dependence that shows the steeper drop with temperature. There were two factors that were responsible for the temperature dependence of the I c R n value. These were critical temperature T c of the junctions and temperature dependence of the R n value. The I c R n value more than 1 mV at 40 K was obtained for the junction that had the T c of 84 K and the positive coefficient of R n value on temperature.
