Electromagnetic wave emission from intrinsic Josephson junction stacks; A Review of theory and simulation

Machida, Masahiko  ; Ota, Yukihiro*; Koyama, Tomio*; Matsumoto, Hideki*

Since the discovery of intrinsic Josephson effects in High-Tc cuprate superconductors, a tremendous number of theoretical and experimental studies have been made to clarify the coupling nature between stacked junctions. The reason comes from an expectation that Josephson junctions stacked in atomic-scale synchronize and high-power electromagnetic wave radiates. Consequently, two types of couplings, called "inductive and capacitive couplings" have been so far established. On the basis of the inductive coupling, several papers suggested that THz high-power emission is possible by using Josephson vortex flow states in the presence of layer parallel magnetic field and c-axis transport current. However, there has been no clear evidence of the emission in vortex flow states, although a few works found out only the sign. Afterwards, Ozyuzer et al., reported that they successfully observe a clear emission from intrinsic Josephson junctions. The situation was rather an unexpected one, since the magnetic field is not applied and the employed size is much larger than the experimental trends at that time. In this presentation, we review a history of the quest of the high power electromagnetic wave emission from intrinsic Josephson stacks before and after the Ozyuzer's work from a theoretical and numerical view. Especially, we would like to emphasize that direct numerical simulation techniques on multi-scale dynamical problems between inside and outside the junction have fully developed by authors.
