✦ Synopsis
A time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau-type model of a superconducting-normal-superconducting junction is presented. The existence and the uniqueness of the solutions are proved. When the data of the model are symmetric of some kinds, the solutions turns out to be symmetric of some kinds. In this symmetric case, an approximate model with the small thickness of the normal material in the middle of the junction as coefficients of a differential system is established for the sake of numerical computations. And also the existence and the uniqueness of the solution to this approximate model are set up. 1998 by B.

Superconducting tunnel junction (STJ) detectors have great potential as ultra-high energy-resolution detectors even at high count rates of over 10 4 counts per second. In fact, single-junction detectors showed energy resolutions of better than 30 eV for 5.9 keV x-rays, 6 eV for 277 eV x-rays and 0.2
In a point contact NS junction, perfect Andreev reflection occurs over a range of voltages equal to the superconducting energy gap, producing an excess current of I exc = (4/3)(2e / h). If the superconductor has a finite width, rather than the infinite width of the point contact, one cannot neglect

Experiments on hybrid superconducting normal-metal structures have revealed that even in the absence of tunnel junctions the onset of superconductivity can lead to a decrease in the electrical conductance by an amount many orders of magnitude greater than e 2 / h. In this paper, we provide a theory
