Phase-dependent Andreev molecules and superconducting gap closing in coherently-coupled Josephson junctions

Abstract The Josephson junction (JJ) is an essential element of superconducting (SC) devices for both fundamental and applied physics. The short-range coherent coupling of two adjacent JJs forms Andreev molecule states (AMSs), which provide a new ingredient to engineer exotic SC phenomena such as to...
