Abstract

We have studied phase transitions in fabricated 2D arrays of Josephson junctions where the charging and Josephson coupling energies are about equal. We find a crossover from superconducting behavior in low fields to insulating behavior for fields above a critical value of 0.1--0.2 flux quanta per unit cell. The quantitative aspects agree well with predictions from a recent theory for quantum vortex motion by M. P. A. Fisher and with measurements on films. Similar transitions are found around values f=n/m, where f is the flux per cell and n,m=1,2,3. The field dependence is periodic in f with period 1.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
