Comment on "Ballistic SNS sandwich as a Josephson junction"
Erkki Thuneberg
TL;DR
This paper critiques a recent study on supercurrent in long ballistic SNS Josephson junctions, offering a simplified interpretation based on fermion energy levels and pointing out errors in the previous work.
Contribution
It provides a critical analysis of existing results, clarifying the behavior of supercurrent in ballistic SNS junctions with a simplified energy level perspective.
Findings
Identifies errors in Sonin's recent paper.
Proposes a simple fermion energy level interpretation.
Clarifies supercurrent behavior in ballistic SNS junctions.
Abstract
The old problem of supercurrent in a long ballistic SNS Josephson junction is interpreted using a simple picture of the fermion energy levels in the normal and superconducting regions. We argue that a recent paper on the topic by Sonin contains erroneous results.
