Target entity: Josephson effect Context triple: [Brian David Josephson, notableIdea, Josephson effect]
-
A.
Josephson effect
chosen
The Josephson effect is a quantum mechanical phenomenon in which a supercurrent flows between two superconductors separated by a thin insulating barrier, enabling devices like SQUIDs and superconducting qubits.
-
B.
Josephson
Josephson is a surname most notably associated with Brian David Josephson, the Nobel Prize–winning physicist known for discovering the Josephson effect in superconductivity.
-
C.
Meissner effect
The Meissner effect is the phenomenon in which a superconductor expels magnetic fields from its interior when cooled below its critical temperature, leading to perfect diamagnetism.
-
D.
Josephson constant
The Josephson constant is a fundamental physical constant that relates frequency to voltage in superconducting Josephson junctions and underpins the quantum standard of voltage.
-
E.
BCS theory of superconductivity
The BCS theory of superconductivity is a fundamental microscopic theory that explains superconductivity through the formation of Cooper pairs of electrons and their collective quantum behavior in a solid.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
