Abstract
The stability of the periodic solution of the two-cell ladder array has been numerically investigated in order to explore intrinsic phase-locking mechanisms relevant to arrays and stacked junction oscillators. In zero magnetic field the periodic in-phase solution of the system is neutrally stable. However, this solution is stable over a finite voltage range when an applied control current exceeds a critical value. The dependence upon system parameters of the boundaries of the stable range and the critical control current is investigated. Finally, the influence of the control current on the microwave power in a typical range of stability is calculated.Keywords
