Abstract
Large dc supercurrents at nonzero voltages are observed in dc current‐biased small Josephson tunnel junctions of the type PbIn‐ (PbIn)xOy‐Pb with critical current densities j0 ranging from 2×102 to 2×105 A/cm2. The dependence of the hysteresis on j0 and the form of the subharmonic energy gap structure are compared with the theoretical results of McDonald et al.
