摘要
The maximum Josephson current (MJC) is measured for small mesas fabricated on cleaved surfaces of B2Sr2CaCu2O8+delta single crystals. It is found that the MJC increases dramatically with increasing c-axis conductivity. The behavior indicates that the MJC is proportional to the square of the c-axis conductivity. This implies that the superconductivity in high-T-c superconductors is likely to be inhomogeneous.
