Ratchetlike Dynamics of Fluxons in Annular Josephson Junctions Driven by Biharmonic Microwave Fields

Ratchetlike Dynamics of Fluxons in Annular Josephson Junctions Driven by Biharmonic Microwave Fields

Experimental observation of the unidirectional motion of a topological soliton driven by a bi-harmonic ac force of zero mean is reported. The observation is made by measuring the current-voltage characteristics for a fluxon trapped in an annular Josephson junction that was placed into a microwave field. The measured dependence of …
