Everything about Josephson vortex
Quantum vortex of superconducting currents
In superconductivity, a Josephson vortex is a quantum vortex of supercurrents in a Josephson junction. The supercurrents circulate around the vortex center which is situated inside the Josephson barrier, unlike Abrikosov vortices in type-II superconductors, which are located in the superconducting condensate.
